I think I'll watch the final part of Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy, which I've been watching in the original Swedish (with English subtitles) as part of the ongoing policy of not watching things I can actually understand
I watched the first two parts (Män som hatar kvinnor aka The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and Flickan som lekte med elden, or The Girl Who Played With Fire) over the weekend, and thought they were very good. I ought to watch the third part while they're still fresh in my memory.Last edited by NickFitz; 20 December 2016, 22:11. Reason: Does anybody ever spell "millennium" correctly on the first go?Comment

Funny....Originally posted by barrydidit View PostFurther to the wisdom of frying over grilling, it occurred to me this afternoon that an egg fried in the same pan as the bacon, and basted with the rendered bacon fat, is a superior accompaniment to an egg fried in the absence of bacon fat.
In years gone by I was a staunch adherent to the bacon and egg buttie, but of recent times I have come to appreciate more the bacon and mushroom option. I think keeping my own chickens made me appreciate a quality yoke, and the fact one couldn't get them in a morning buttie drove me into the arms of the mushroom. I regard it as a happy accident
Mushrooms cooked in the bacon fat would be superior too, now I come to think of it. In fact, i'm not sure anything wouldn't benefit from the treatment.
When I was posting earlier I forgot to add that both eggs and more recently mushrooms have been added to the roll (not both together)
A decent butter to put on the roll is also a requirement

I should have added if you don't have your own chickens, these are your best supermarket yolk purchase, IMHO.

The one pan theory, everything in one pan cross contaminating its goodness.
