Chambers – Toasted currant teacake
Posted: March 11, 2015 Filed under: Food | Tags: currant teacake, teacake, toasted currant teacake, toasted teacake Leave a commentThere was once a time, not so long ago, when I couldn’t resist the comforting delights of the toasted teacake on any trip out.
Can I just add in there that the teacake had to be a currant teacake (and current teacake)
Is toast the ultimate comfort food?
I know it comforts me to think that Caroline ISN’T sticking a knife into the toaster !
Many tears ago I wandered downstairs to find Caroline trying to extricate something from the toaster with a knife! Whilst it was still plugged in !!
“STOP!” I shouted!
“WHAT ARE YOU DOING!” I continued!
“GET THE KNIFE OUT! GET THE KNIFE OUT!” I yelled.
Did Caroline thank me for saving her life? Saving her from being electrocuted at the hands of … her own hands?
No.
“Don’t you shout at me!” I received for saving my wife’s life! (okay, potentially saving her life. Well I would argue that there would be a significant risk in sticking a knife into a plugged-in toaster!)
Ah, well!
(I’m sure Grace Darling and Mary Seacole received similar congratulations in their ministrative work)
Anyway, as I said. I think toast is the greatest comfort food
Although I’m not entirely convinced that I’ve given a suitable example today of the calming and soothing effects of taste products.
