I know you're a great eater. Have this hamburger for lunch.

Don`t worry, I`ll help you with this hamburger.

 

As for my work I tried a lot of them indeed, currently I`ve been studing gardening.

[Molly Malone 4 448]

Oh, what a delicious hamburger!

 

victorian, sweety, if you want to help me with it, you may eat the top piece of bread, the rest of the hamburger is mine

 

I am hungry. I bought some herring today and was antisipating for the whole day how i would eat it with onions, but it turned out to be too salted

 

Dear English Club members, have you ever tried to marinate herring yourselves so that it would be tender and light salted?

 

Tomorrow i am going to the market to buy frozen herring and salt it...

 

Boiled potatoes, herring, onions...

If salt herring stays in refrigerator then in some days it become more salter.

When you buy herring in some shop look at the issue date should be more recent.

The freezer weakens salting process.

(try to fry potatoes at the cast iron pan with leek )

Honey please buy two herrings, I`ll join you with my pleasure

And don`t forget to make the order from Lady LG for our next dinner

[Molly Malone 4 448]

Serdar,

 

I buy herring only at the market and before buying I usually smile at the seller very politely and say "Would you please be so kind to tell me when your herring came to the market?" And they all say "It has come today, the herring is absolutely delicious, very-very-light-salted!" Liars

But i do not blame them, they can't taste herring every time the supplier delivers it.

And they can't say "The herring is very salted and disgusting, don't buy it"

 

So i bought two herrings today and found an interesting recipe. Tomorrow they will be ready, one for me, one for my big cat victorian

[Molly Malone 4 448]

And don`t forget to make the order from Lady LG for our next dinner biggrin.gif

The freezer weakens salting process.

From the point of view of physics you're quite right, but how long are you going to keep herring in the freezer? For a day or two, I suppose.

If the herring I buy is too salty, I usually put it into cold strong tea or milk for an hour or so. After that it tastes much better.

A joke:

- No, but I have seen a man eating herring.

victorian, gimini, Justinianna, what do you do if it isn't a secret? What do you deal with? Do you like your job?

I am a accounting specialist. Now I'm housewife .

 

 

About herring. I don't know how to cook herring , but I can salt whitefish (siga).

 

Molly Malone where you buy a herring? I buy almost unsalted.

[Molly Malone 4 448]

gimini,

where do you buy unsalted herring?

I buy mine at our market.

 

So, the herring is ready and it's splendid!

 

I boiled 1 litre of water with 3 bay leaves, 3 cloves (гвоздика), 3 table spoons of salt, 4 table spoons of sugar and 8 black peppers, cooled this mixture and put 2 herrings inside. (At first i cut their heads and made harakiri). Waited tor 24 hours. Then I sliced my herrings, added some oil and onions and then.... :D

 

Are you going to eat the whole herring??? ohmy.gif

 

Yes I am! You are underestimating my appetite, Lady LG

 

And the second one goes to my lovely cat.

Pussy pussy pussy, come here, victorian. have some herring

Your post reminds me of Bulgakov's Sharikov eating herring...

What a delicious cake! I guess why you’ve made it.

 

Dear friends, do you know how victorian and Molly first met? I’ll tell you.

 

It happened last summer. Molly Malone got on the train and took a seat next to a solitary travelling gentleman (it was victorian, of course). Molly looked very nice. She had just dyed her hair blond and was wearing a light summer dress. Victorian was coming back home from the country.

 

After a while victorian said politely, “Excuse me, miss, but…”

“If you speak or annoy me I’ll pull the train cord,” Molly snapped.

 

Whenever victorian attempted to speak, Molly threatened to pull the cord or call the policeman. At last the train slowed up at Pushkino and victorian rose to his feet.

“I don’t care whether you like it or not, miss,” he said, “but I want that torn bag of strawberries you’ve been sitting on for the last half an hour.”

 

Later Victorian and Molly got acquainted in the forum and made friends. They like to spend time together and discuss different things in English: literature, politics, sports, the latest fashion and news. They are both great eaters and like strawberries very much. Every time they eat strawberries with whipped cream, strawberry jam or strawberry cake (without any spoons) they remember the day they first met and can’t help laughing.

Little Tanya's sadly sobbing,

On the waves her ball is bobbing.

Don't cry your eyes out so:

Rubber balls don't drown, you know.

 

Remember: those who don't do tasks, don't get prizes!

 

Have fun! See you!

Рыдает Танюша,

Мяч кружит пучина

Ей жалко не мяч

Ее бросил мужчина.

Судьбу словно мячик

Качает волна

Хватила она

От мужчины сполна.

Он ей обещал

Голубые просторы

Он ей рисовал

Золотистые горы

На море закат

И в раю острова

И что же на деле?

Одни лишь слова...

А утром опять

Одиночества муки

Волчицей завыть

На луну бы от скуки

С холодной постели

Так тяжко вставать

Шаги в коридоре

Опять ее мать

- Танюша, а ну ка бегом умываться

Давно уж пора в детский сад собираться!
