Be a bit wary. My younger son overdid the keto, made himself ill. I think you probably know there are certain minimums to consume and avoid such a fate. I Must admitQSS, I never get too involved with macros etc, more the principal. I’m sorry to hear your son overdid it. I go a bit free and easy (as ever) and when I’m a good boy it’s 20g carbs, when I’m a forgetful boy it’s 50g carbs and now and again it’s 2 bacon butties and a pasties de nata sort me out. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home cured bacon grilled till crispy (none of that American rubbish injected with slime) and then grilled until it’s nearly edible. In fairness, UK supermarkets use the same technique. I Don’t get the whole American/Canadian/British bacon thing. It’s almost as offensive as chicken sausages in Dubai. Bacon is cured not injected with Brine. Our local butchers do a superb job. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QueSeraSera Posted 6 hours ago #22590 Share Posted 6 hours ago Don't know WWT we're a bit lost without Mysty I suggest we regroup in Oregon perhaps the most beautiful state in the USA but would Wales be better? or Quebec? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DavyWavey70 Posted 6 hours ago #22591 Share Posted 6 hours ago Definitely Wales but we’d call that a trug, not a hand basket. Not to be contrary QSS 😁 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted 6 hours ago #22593 Share Posted 6 hours ago Doesn't this thread have a Crafter who knows what a Handbasket actually is??? Surely it's not a basket to keep spare hands in?

Will Work for Tiramisu Posted 5 hours ago #22595 Share Posted 5 hours ago Your Waveformness - We have a number of trugs - both woven from some sort of basket material, & galvanized wire mesh. The latter get more use. When one walks out to the garden to harvest, it is a 20-30 minute operation, and you don't want to have to make multiple trips back to the kitchen. So, a big trug lets you get all the ripe tomatoes, the head of lettuce before it bolts, half a dozen onions, a couple eggplants, way too many peppers, and some lettuce, basil & parsley. A small collander just won't get the job done. Just say yes to trugs..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DavyWavey70 Posted 4 hours ago #22598 Share Posted 4 hours ago Whilst my dearly beloved involves himself in disappearing down YouTube rabbit holes of Americans tasting British foods for the first time, which I actually find quite distasteful, I Choose to Disappear down entirely different rabbit holes on YouTube such as Americans watching the last night of the Proms. I Mean no disrespect whatsoever to my American friends but it does fascinate me how we are viewed around the world. Here’s just one example (maybe not the best) https://youtu.be/ZXZ11TfF3h4?si=_zH3cWx8lVmp9Vzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the UK - at least in my bits of it - it was usually going to hell in a handcart, one explanation for its origins being that it began at the time of the Great Plague in London, when the dead were removed from their homes in handcarts. Maybe I should email Susie Dent, channel 4's lexicographer, for her interpretation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first, with Britain's history of coal mines, I thought the handcarts might be headed literally downward... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
