    Breakfast danish, followed with a chocolate croissant at smoko (or Little Lunch, whatever you prefer). Finish lunch off with a muffin before tucking into a chocolate swirl as afternoon smoko. Pavlova for sweets following dinner and maybe some nice cheeses or biscotti for supper.

    tea

    This is how I've been operating lately. I should probably drink more water, but tea is too good.

    I'm also guilty of drinking room temperature tea if I get distracted and forget about my cup. I mean, it would be wrong to waste it.

    I used to buy food while drunk, with the plan to eat it the following morning. Almost every time I'd wake up, go to the fridge, look for the food, and then remember that I ate everything fifteen minutes after I ordered it.

    I'd curse evening Blake, he was such a dick.

    He at one stage would bite into food and yell, take that morning Blake!

    Then morning Blake, hungover as fuck would have to go to muzzbuzz and order everything.

    Let's be honest here for a moment:

    There is nothing that you can buy that late in the night, in that state of mind, that's going to worth eating the next morning with hangover goo-guts.

    Going to the fridge and finding a refridergated sausage roll and choc milk waiting for you is amazing.

    Unless evening Blake got there first.

    Sometimes there are even cherry ripes.

    Untrue!

    Once I bought a loaf of crappy bread and it saved my life

    I just curled on the coach I was crashing on and slowly shoved scraps of bread into my face between bouts of miserable huddling

    God ain't that the truth.

    One time in Shanghai I woke up to find three containers of various kinds of street food in my fridge that I do not even remember buying.

    The best I could figure from consulting some friends was that I bought street food from three different vendors on the way home one night (apparently with a cavalier "OOH THAT LOOKS GOOD GIMME IT" attitude), insisting that I'd eat it all when I got home, and then promptly passed out in bed and my roommate shoved the food in the fridge.

    Looking at those greasy noodles and dumplings and shit the next morning I was not amused.

    But by mid-afternoon the worst of the nausea had passed and I ate EVERYTHING.

    Really drunkViv was just planning ahead.

    Also my friend tends to make mandu while drunk and wake up covered in soy sauce

    This has happened at least five times, which I call a tendency

    See, Drunk Alex can hold his shit together with food. Regularly I'll wake up in the morning to find a couple of vegemite and cheese rolls, a gatorade and maybe (twice this has happened) an unopened kebab.

    I'll pull em out, look to the sky and throw out a big thumbs up. Thanks Drunk Alex!

    The thing to not do is buy ice cream and put it in your purse

    Another friend of mine has done this twice in the last six months

    RIP Snickers ice cream bars

    Yeah see that's why you buy two! Possibly three.

    Ice cream in the purse is a good trick too. I pulled the old sausage roll in the pocket one myself

    Our time zones are the time zones of heroes*

    See Tef that is the advantage of drunk pocket food! You learn about yourself and what is important to you.

    The disadvantage has been proven by melted ice creams and the periodic partially-unwrapped moroccan sandwich surprise.

    I-i have no idea what a morrocan sandwich surprise is, but I think I want one?

    You guys know what one of my favourite hangover foods is? Sushi.

    Well, really just soy sauce but sushi rolls make for an excellent soy sauce delivery vehicle

    There's this guy from Morocco who has a street cart here.

    His sandwiches are this insane shitshow of like, squashy seasoned meatballs, fried egg, skillet-fried mashed potato pancake, spicy sauce and maybe something else creamy.

    I don't know because I've never dissected one sober but I would guess they're approximately 5 trillion calories a piece.

    talk about classy

    With capital one rewards i scored $150 in gift cards to Morton's The Steakhouse

    Took my lady friend out there saturday night. I even wore a tie.

    Then Daddy Bush showed up with Barbara, and sat two tables from where we were sitting. Secret Service sat between us.

    We ordered two caesar salads, filet minon (hers), new york strip (mine), two orders of shrimp alexander, the creme brulee, godiva hot chocolate cake along with a bottle of Votre Sante Pinot Noir (HUGELY overpriced at $50)

    Tab came to $195. I'm not sure ill ever pay that much for a meal again, but the food, service and atmosphere were all top notch

    I would wake up at my friend's house and ask my self, what would I do with a construction sign, the answer is, hide it under their couch.

    I actually think it could ship pretty well!

    Although I might have to refine the recipe, it is tasty but it is not the tiffin I am quite used to, and I think the recipe I followed has slightly wrong proportions (I had to melt twice the recommended amount of chocolate to get a decent top layer)

    I've had baked goods shipped through the mail before. One of my favorite treats is coffee cake. When I was in college, my mom baked a coffee cake. She cut it up in large neat squares, placed cardboard and wax paper between the stacked layers, and shipped it off to me. The entire cake.

    It was worth it.

    Hrm just did a google search for coffee cake. Can't find it exactly. This picture is somewhat close, but without the apples and nuts in it. It's a recipe from my great-grandmother, so it's likely a german folk recipe. Delicious anyways.

    Huh! But it has coffee in? (That linked recipe doesn't). My grandmother makes coffee cake, but it is actually coffee-flavoured sponge and coffee-icing (ends up a mid-brown, much lighter than chocolate).

    My mother never mailed goods, but I frequently travelled back to university with a leg of lamb and a box of banoffee pie in a bag on the train.

    Coffee and tea are surprisingly good in a number of recipes! I put a lot of coffee (regular, brewed coffee) in chocolate upside down cake; it forms the entire basis of the sauce, mmm. And I looove teabread.

  • Options
    SyphyreSyphyre A Dangerous Pastime Registered User regular
    The cake doesn't have coffee in it. It's meant to be eaten with coffee, which is where I think it got the name from.

    Coffee I've seen in other recipes (particularly that involve chocolate) but tea? I've never heard of putting tea into a recipe of any sort, can you point me to a good tea-bread recipe?
