Hello..................again. A beautiful day in Lancashire. I'm feeling quite sanguine now. I like that word and popped in because I thought to myself "oooo, I could use sanguine in a post" Yes, my boys let the opposition equalise with the literal last kick of the match. Hey ho. In worse news I got my breakfast ready, forgot to eat it and have just finished some very soggy Weetabix, well Aldi style wheat biscuits. I've given small person more solid breakfasts.

I've just ordered another box of 8 tubes of High5 Zero tabs from Wiggle. I love the pink grapefruit flavour

2 whole sausages? My goodness, you do know how to live dangerously

 

[numbnuts]

Well not just two sausages , I'm having linguine with a cheese and garlic sauce with chopped up sausages

 

[numbnuts]

Well the sausages were cooked to perfection, a lovely light brown colour all over and only took 12 minutes, now according to my not so smart meter it said I was using .58p per hour so around 12p for two sausages not too bad I thought it was going to be a lot higher as this fryer is 1350w.
Easy to use – well once set at 200c I only looked at them twice, with fry pan and grill you have to keep a look out all the time so that is a big plus for the air fryer.
Now is it worth is, well I have two items to wash up instead of one frying pan or the grill pan, no big deal really, would I buy one, on my own no, with a family I think they have a place in the home for sure. The other thing is the size they are big so you have to a large kitchen/plenty of workspace area to put it.

I have the Tefal Actifry. I made a Barm Brack a couple of days ago and instead of a loaf tin I chucked it in the Air Fryer. It was a bit experimental but came out ok. The hole in the middle is caused by the way the machine is designed, there's a removeable paddle that slowly turns things over when fitted, greaat for chips.
the size is about 9 1/2" by 1 1/2" .
I left the fruit soaking for a couple of days in a blend of strong tea, the remains of a bottle of Amaretto and a generous slug of Tia Maria.

We gave in and went to the fish and chip shop
