All the Things British!




I love all things British. From Coronation Street,to the accents, to the sounds of London life, I love it all.

Lately, on Sunday, I watch another British show called "Come Dine With Me.". It is a group of five people who are unknown to each other,and have a turn at preparing a meal and serving to the others. They are then, graded on their meal, their serving style, entertainment etc. The winner wins 1000.00 pounds and of course, bragging rights.

The other night I came home to a wonderful meal of chicken marsala and fettucine which P had prepared, borrowing the recipe from last week's Come Dine With Me.

It was a gorgeous meal and a delightful surprise. I wonder what's for dinner tonight?

  1. I just started watching that show too and Love it. It can be hysterical like the week the hostess went to bed and left her guests alone and they had to cook the meal themselves!!

  6. I love British "stuff", too, Julie. I watched "Are You Being Served"????or something to that effect some years ago and I thought it was hilarious. Not sure if it is on anymore. I'll have to see if I can find "Come Dine With Me".
    Thanks for mentioning it....
