[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2569710, member: 372207"] Have I mentioned how much I love snow peas before? They're expensive and decadent, and today I treated myself to a very large portion of them! The plan was to go for groceries on saturday, but everything was stupid and I couldn't get myself to do it. Likely something to do with stupid december and stupid 8 and 3 years anniversaries of both my father and my beloved dog dying, which was yesterday. Still miss them a lot, both of them, and I'm glad they share this strange anniversary, one of those days each year is quite enough. Anyway, no groceries meant stretching out what I had for a few more days and meals have been rather boring. So today I decided to treat myself with a very easy but also very yummy meal: a ridiculous amount of snow peas with butter and salt, and a couple of chipolata sausages. Snow peas were half the bag, other half is for tomorrow. Sausages are half the package too. I wonder what bright soul has decided to put 5 sausages in a pack, how do you even devide that unless you're a family of 5 and eat very small portions of meat? There's an interesting difference between sausages in the UK and in the Netherlands (worst or worstjes). Like the UK, we have countless different kinds of sausages, ranging from sausages to be fried, to sliced cold sausage meat to use on sandwiches, and dried sausages to have with a beer. But unlike UK sausages, I buy any kind without even checking the back: I've never found any kind of sausage containing more than 2% carbs, and usually it's under 1%. (An exception is bloedworst (black pudding). Some have added rice, some don't.) I was so puzzled when first joining the forum and being warned to check the carbs in sausages! I must have spent a full hour in the supermarket checking all those packages to find the sneaky high carb ones but they just weren't there! :hilarious: [ATTACH type="full"]58268[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
