I'm inclined to say whisky in the glass

Johnny Walker Red Label Scotch, one of my favorites.

Sorry, I meant the other glass in the last pic.

Looks like thin tomato soup or the liquid from a dish like gołąbki.

Where from have you got Rydze?

The mushrooms in the 2nd picture of post 719.

I meant the other glass in the last pic.

I'm inclined to agree with Atch, looks like a thin tomato soup/sauce. I can't quite make out what the dish is next to the glass that has some of the sauce in it.

No, I mean those are rare, where he got them from in a real life.

Sorry, girls, that was just my own version of Bloody Mary. You can see a pepper jar behind and I used the teaspoon to mix sugar coz I like the drink very sweet.

The sauce in the tub is herring in tomato juice.

Johnny Walker Red Label Scotch, one of my favorites.

I get two or three bottles at the end of each schoolyear. I take them to family reunions coz I am not a fan of whisky.

Those are all out of my price range as the Red gets me there just as fast and does the same job.
kaprys told me to quit because it was bad for my health.

Also, females don`t like when their partners drink too much. Money wasted on alcohol could be spent in a better way, e.g, on kids.

It is spent in a good way already. Since there is so much tax within the price of alcohol, the government surely spends it on your kids. If you don't drink, where the government is going to take the money to build schools from?

hahaha Good.

Hey, guys, how often do you eat corn for lunch? I saw that scene in E.T. when a wife gives her husband corn on the cob and he finds out it is raw. After an initial shock and indignation, he accepts it after she persuades him to eat it.

Never. That stuff is GMO over here, used for animal feed and ethanol production.

That is very interesting. Questions:
Is all corn sold in the US modified?
Do most Americans share your views and abstain from eating corn?

If it's on the cob, not that often. I like sweetcorn but it's more hassle to eat it that way, plus picking it out of your teeth after takes forever.

I see. I use dental floss after each veg which I eat so corn is not a problem. :)

Easter breakfast: the main ingredient is bread. :)

I don't know about Americans but for me, corn is inedible and disgusting.

There are two kinds of corn: sweet and fodder. You might have come across that fodder one.
Miloslaw  21 | 5181

No.
I was fed sweet corn on the cob as a child,grilled and with some butter on it.
It made me want to throw up....... disgusting.

Btw, those differences between people are so fascinating, If we were all alike and the same, I would commit a suicide after a few years due to unbearable boredom. :)

Do you like munching raw veg? I am old but I still have all my teeth intact. I sometimes have a feeling they are growing so I need to wear them down regularly. :):)

My fav munchy veg is kohlrabi. Broccoli, too, though today I prefer to cut off their tops and focus on stems.

With the exception of normal salad stuff e.g tomatoes, and also onions and peas straight from the pod, not really. I don't particularly like that crunchy texture. Is that Coquille St Jacques in the first photo? It certainly looks like it. Brown rice too? Yuk.

Me too, but the only raw veg I like, besides lettuce,tomatoes,onions,spring onions and cucumber, is celery and radishes.
Both with plenty of salt.
Brown rice is disgusting.
I love Coquille St Jaques.

Actually, now that you mention it, I quite like radishes. I like celery in dishes if it's cooked, but hate the taste of it raw.

I wouldn't have salt on any of it!

Yes, Coquilles. Not brown rice in the first pic, it is wild rice.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_rice

Brown rice too? Yuk.

:):)
I usually have it instead of white rice which is deprived of valuable nutrients.

Both with plenty of salt.

Hey, the guide book of rabbit care advises to sprinkle some veg for your rabbit with salt.

it is wild rice.

It is still crunchy and horrible :( I know white rice has been stripped of nutrients, but I like it. For the nutrients I will have wholemeal bread or seeded bread which I do like :)

The crunchier, the better. Rice, veg, whatever. I need to wear down my teeth every day. :):)

Good but is it enough for the recommended daily nutrition?

Both white rice & bread are horrible for you as both are very high in carbs and full of sugar.
Not foods for someone over forty.
