I haven't had sushi in over a year since I had my Bariatric Surgery. I will take any. Loved eel, shrimp, salmon or any roll.

Decisions decisions decisions! Now you have something to think about today... and also. Figure out what you are going to wear!

 

[faust]

Well, I would select collar suite. But I am not at home and the best idea in reality is waterproof jacket. P.S. When does the party actually start? For example, London time

I finally slept for about just over an hour for the first time in 14 days. It shouldn't take such effort :(

My favorite sushi is the Philadelphia roll.

In my home country there were some sushi cakes with mainly Philadelphia

@BlueWidow her popular hot buttered rum

Good morning all,

So glad the site is back up and working again. I hope it continues to work well for at least the next 24 hours while we have this party.

It's pretty early morning here and I am probably going to go back to bed for another hour or so, but I noticed @Jean4 wanted me to bring hot buttered rum, So I thought I'd publish the recipe here in case anyone else actually wants to make some in real life and join me. It's relatively easy to make. It's one of those things where you can put in the things you want and leave out the things you don't want as far as spices & that go. For example, I always leave out the cloves because I don't like cloves.
The recipe I follow is the one from the Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond. I also noticed that January 17 was apparently National Hot Buttered Rum Day and we all missed it, so I thought we could just celebrate it today instead. So if anyone else wants to join me, here's the recipe. As long as you leave it in the fridge for an hour or so, the butter mixture should be fine. I don't think you have to leave it in there overnight. I'm just going to make a batch of it this morning and leave it in there for an hour or two, so I can have it a little later when I start drinking.


Ree Drummond's Pioneer Woman Hot Buttered Rum


Ingredients

Butter Mixture:

2 sticks (1 cup) salted butter, at room temperature

1 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup honey

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

Cocktail:

16 to 20 ounces dark rum

Boiling water, for serving

Canned whipped cream, for serving, optional

Mini marshmallows, for serving, optional

Cinnamon sticks or star anise, for serving, optional

Directions

• For the butter mixture: Add the butter, brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, cloves and allspice to a medium bowl. Using a rubber spatula, mix everything together until well combined. Transfer the mixture to a mason jar and screw on the lid. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the cocktail: Add 2 tablespoons of the butter mixture to each coffee mug. Pour 2 ounces of rum into each mug. Top off with boiling water and stir to melt the butter. Garnish with any or all of the whipped cream, mini marshmallows, cinnamon sticks or star anise and serve.

I'm going back to bed for a little while. And then I'll get up, get dressed, and get my coffee and then I'll be back. Depending on whether or not I actually fall asleep again, it could be sooner or later.

Cheers everyone!

Cheesecake and pizza! What kind of pizza?

Probably just cheese because I'll be sharing with my daughter. It's a cheat day for me because I'm sick and can't be bothered to cook anything healthy.
