Miss K is home for the weekend but we won't be seeing her on mother's day so young Mr K came round and they made and cooked delicious pizzas from scratch. Miss K made the dough for the first time and they both created the various toppings. We were very impressed. I'd suggested supermarket pizza to keep things simple and to avoid a repeat of the messy kitchen takeover, however, they still wanted to cook and it turns out that they have improved their cleanup skills.
 
Pan fried gammon with poached eggs, jacket potato, peas, fried mushrooms and English mustard.

Jacket potato (with creamed mushroom sauce).

And the bleeding of the eggs.

Really? Here we have several type of coffee. Classic espresso in a small cup, strong black coffee, decaffeinated coffee, weak black coffee ( not american coffee), coffee with a shot of spirits and coffee with a dash of milk...anyway I can't have less than 4/5 espresso coffee a day....
Highlight of my life in the late 1940s/early 1950s was to go in Joe Lyons's with my Mum and Dad and have "milk and a dash (of coffee)" to drink. I don't know whether it was proper coffee or chicory but it tasted lovely with a buttered roll and a piece of cheese.

One week I ordered my spare/emergency jar of Nescafe (my son-in-law won't drink "proper" coffee), only to find they had substituted a jar of Rocket Fuel. Absolutely gorgeous, although you are not recommended to have more than 3 cups a day or drink it at all if you have heart trouble.
