Refreshing when you bump into people you know in stupidly large cities, isn't it?
If anyone's worried about Greenhamster, don't worry. I am feeding him Jerked Chilli (another novel chilli-based recipe, kind of Texan/Jamaican fusion) and Pizza, and showing him episode after episode of the first series of 24, which I haven't yet seen all of and am quite enjoying.
I've sorted out going home to the Isle of Wight this weekend, so I shalt be absent for Friday cocktails over at Uborka, but may well be mixing some real ones with the family and the family parrot...which I'm rather looking forward to, it has to be said. I haven't been home since Christmas, which might not seem a long time in the greater scheme of things, but it feels like a couple of ice ages have come and gone since then.
Note to self: (which has the bonus of applying to anyone else who wants it to)
Call home.
Chilli?
If you're talking about the stuff that warms you up and comes in a bowl, served with cornbread or tortillas, it's CHILI.
If you're talking about a spicey little pepper, that's a CHILI, too.
Which one are you talking about?
There is no CHILLI, sorry.
I've noticed other peoples' spelling of it, and so I looked it up in a handy dictionary. Unfortunately the dictionary had just 'chilli' for the pepper.
I looked it up again and another dictionary had 'chili' for the pepper..
Maybe it is both?
