Things you know will end badly but...

I just made a fatal mistake of opening a tin of anchovies to cook with well before needing them and decided it was a good idea to try just one......

... Resulting in an emergency run to the shop to get another tin as there are now none left when I need them in the current tin...

Also I have a terrible thirst just come on, maybe I need to open that bottle of wine for just one glass.......

I have the same problem when it comes to buying wine for dinner. I stupidly don't hide it well enough, see it during the afternoon and by evening it's been demolished and I don't fancy cooking.

What are you cooking dogger?

This is the reason why family bags of peanuts are a bad idea. A very bad, bloaty idea.

Family bags of anything, really, especially if you live alone.

Thinking about it for a moment, I've never even heard of anyone eating a whole tin of anchovies. Hope you don't have high blood pressure or kidney problems, Artful.

Wine, chocolate raisins (although I count both as 1 of my 5) and the lentil crisps in chilli and lemon flavour from smbs or the Turkish deli. I should be the size of a house based on this. I'm also partial to a carrot stick and humous for balance.

[Robert Poste's Child]

Ooh, I like the lentil crisps too, but the plain ones. Have you tried them with hummus? Perfect combination.

I have and upon reflection I think I prefer them as with the chilli ones, some are really nice and lemony with a hint of spice and some feel like you're ingesting a furnace. They also leave you with a horrible taste in your mouth. I amend my previous statement, plain ones all the way!! :)

[New Girl]

Sorry the lentil chips, not your first marriage. Unless it felt like ingesting a furnace :)

Sigh

Have you never had extra anchovies on your pizza, that's about a tin load

However your comment could explain the racing heart, dizziness and sweaty palms....

Or was that just a result of too much wine to wash the anchovies down with 🤔

I shouldn't have bought the Haagen Dazs salted caramel, on special offer at Sainsbury's. An accident waiting to happen once it was in the freezer (though sadly all too briefly).
