What's Happened Tot The' Foodies' Forum?

[FIRETHORN1 58]

Just wondering what's happened to the Sheffield Foodies forum?  I seem to be the only one posting on here  on here on a regular basis these days! Has everyone run out of ideas, stopped cooking, shopping and trying new stuff? Down the last few years, 

I've learned a lot and picked up a lot of ideas and recipes from people like Taxman,  Happyaslarry,  Hauxwell, MaxVinella etc....plus many other regular contributors Where are you guys??.  I've really missed the banter on the "Foodies forum" and hope that it will soon resume.

You've definitely got a point there andyofborg.  I've always been a bit of a greedy fat porker....and even more so since the beginning of lockdown! I love cooking - mostly savoury stuff....but during lockdown,  I've been experimenting with cooking and baking  sweet stuff too.  I always thought I was rubbish at cooking sweet stuff, but it's actually turned out that I'm quite good at it.  The upside is that it's mostly turned out really well..... the downside is that I'm just getting fatter and fatter......and fatter!  Aaargh!

i've gone the other way

 

most cookery works well enough if you are careful and think about what you are doing and be sure what you want to achieve. 

 

i quite like cooking and having the time to cook properly has been one of the good things to come out of this. 

 

i'm experimenting with microwave mug stuff atm. I picked up a recipe book from amazon and the internet is full of recipes.  All the ones i've tried have been good, and some have been really good. They all come out in sensible portion sizes too lol

To be honest I've just not been bothered with SF for ages. I used to post every day on a wide range of subjects but lately I only log on as an afterthought.

 

Salmon and smoked mackeral macaroni tonight by the way. With a cream sauce and fennel seed and grated sourdough topping.
