The weather map doesn't really reflect the fact that a tree blew over in Dublin and killed a lady and my friends trampoline left her garden yesterday afternoon and hasn't been seen since. There is a bad storm here and election posters are flying off lamp posts all over the country attacking commuters.
I texted my mother yesterday 'what's in ur BBQ sauce for leg of lamb'
This is what I got back
'2 tabl sp tom ketchup, dito mushroom ketchup and worcester sauce, 1 tbl sp spicey fruit sauce or home made chut. 1 or 2 oz butter melted, tea spoon sugar, dash red wine vinegar, dash tabasco. Mix!Half hour before cooked baste with 1/2 sauce and again towards end, so it mostly ends up in the gravy when you make it, Very good with creamy mash and day before poke in slivers of garlic and rub powdererd mustard and ginger and pepper and leave out of fridge for a few hours before cooking. Bon Appetite!'
Not bad texting for a 73 yr old? Her index finger must have a blister on it after all that.
I got all the ingredients last night but mushroom ketchup does not exist.
I failed to get a Galway Advertiser yesterday. The Galway Advertiser is a free paper with local jobs in it that comes out on Thursdays.
Have a look at the Galway Advertiser digital edition for local news.
It is impossible to get a copy even though it has a huge circulation, last year distributing over 35,000 papers in Galway, the highest print run of any local newspaper in Ireland.
To get your hands on one you have to whisper to the shop assistant
'Have you an advertiser?'
And if she deems you special enough she will give you one from the secret stash behind the counter, making sure you know she has bestowed a great honour on you.
They are like hens teeth.
There is only about 5 jobs in them these days anyway.
