Capt. Morgan Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Er, I'll stick with dessert, Will... I fear the legs would hop off my plate, or worse, that I'll be confronted by a giant sword-wielding frog with no back legs...

I dare say it has been a small while since I have seen your wonderful broad shoulders and those piercing eyes. And what an honor you do for us of the Irish line to present such a lovely aray of fare. *Moves to a table, brushing William as she passes* One of each, my dear, if it pleases you...But two Guinness the proper way. My thanks to you. ...Or lay these bones in an unworthy urn, Tombless, with no rememberance over them: Either our history shall with full mouth Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave, Like a Turkish mute, shall have a toungueless mouth, Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph...

Tempest Fitzgerald Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 An interesting notion, William. You do that. *smiles* Aye, you do that and I will show you the proper way to celebrate Saint Paddy's...A little early, but that just means you will have time to perfect it. Throw some peat on the hearth to chase away a small of the chill and a bottle of Jameson is a good start. ...Or lay these bones in an unworthy urn, Tombless, with no rememberance over them: Either our history shall with full mouth Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave, Like a Turkish mute, shall have a toungueless mouth, Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph...

Tempest Fitzgerald Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Another Guinness...yes, I do believe another would be wonderful. Now, as to improper...I do not recall that word being in my vocabulary. Perhaps you will have to define it for me. ...Or lay these bones in an unworthy urn, Tombless, with no rememberance over them: Either our history shall with full mouth Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave, Like a Turkish mute, shall have a toungueless mouth, Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph...

Tempest Fitzgerald Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Why thank you, William. You ever impress me, a gentleman and learned as well. Being a smuggler's daughter and bound to a pyrate captain, I can well appreciate the philosphy defined. Another Guinness...or perhaps something with a little more, shall we say...bite in it? ...Or lay these bones in an unworthy urn, Tombless, with no rememberance over them: Either our history shall with full mouth Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave, Like a Turkish mute, shall have a toungueless mouth, Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph...

Tempest Fitzgerald Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Verbose of refined candour and ending with a query...Some things are best left undisturbed, others to be delved into with unquenchable satiation. *A cannon roars in the near distance relaying signal to shore. Gazing into the bay, she realizes the signal is from The Gael and a small pout disturbs her features as she stands up from the table* My apologies to you, William. We shall have to continue this at another time. Jack is not known for his patience and when the call goes out, it is best to return to the decks with haste. *She leans down to place a kiss upon his cheek* Another time, sailor...Duty calls. *As she makes to leave, she looks over her shoulder and flashes the feral smile to William. It lingers for a moment followed by a wink then she departs his company...for now* ...Or lay these bones in an unworthy urn, Tombless, with no rememberance over them: Either our history shall with full mouth Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave, Like a Turkish mute, shall have a toungueless mouth, Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph...

William Brand Posted March 16, 2005 Author Share Posted March 16, 2005 Today's special is... Boxty (Potato Griddle Cakes) Servings: 8 1/2 lb Raw potato 1/2 lb Mashed potato 1/2 lb Plain flour Milk 1 Egg Salt and pepper Grate raw potatoes and mix with the cooked mashed potatoes. Add salt, pepper and flour. Beat egg and add to mixture with just enough milk to make a batter that will drop from a spoon. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto a hot griddle or frying pan. Cook over a moderate heat for 3-4 minutes on each side. Serve with a tart apple sauce: or as part of an Ulster Fry, with fried bacon, fried sausage, fried eggs, fried black pudding, fried bread, fried soda bread. An old poem says: Boxty on the griddle, boxty in the pan, if you can't make boxty, you'll never get a man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
