Tomorrow- (first day off work for the Xmas break) it'll be Salami, Cheese, Onion and Tomato toasted sandwiches, I usually have rolls but since I'll be home I'll have bread so I can toast them in the sandwich press.

Sounds like the perfect toastie, if only I could find a sandwich press that doesn’t flatten the sanga, I had one two marriages ago, can’t find them anywhere now.

BTW, the Coles deli garlic mettwurst is the cheapest and tastiest getting around, unless you go get a 5 footer straight from Kalleske’s factory.

Funnily enough i went to the Watervale Hotel last week and bought the Carbonara. It came with Orange zest in it......definitely not my thing.

I cannot bring myself to buy a carbonara while out, they’ll charge $30 for something that costs $3 to make, if that.

Agree on the mettwurst from Coles, I go out it my way to buy it.

Wrap in the frypan, cheese, mettwurst and Franks Thick Hot Sauce, another wrap on top. It’s like a Quesadilla

I forgot about ham, still got some left so that'll go in too. I have a flat Kmart Toasted Sandwich Press which I've had since I've had my house which has been good to me but don't use it much anymore as my wife got a Sunbeam Big Fill Toastie 4 Press two or three Christmases ago and I love it.

Same here, my local Coles doesn’t have a deli so I have to get it from the next closest one.

The lad and I get slices of it and whack a wedge of laughing cow cheese in between then squish it down, absolute delicacy, anyone that tries it usually backs it up with 2 or 3 more

For faark sake, STOP NOW. =;

You DO NOT buy smallgoods from a supermarket, especially no their no name branded shit.

You think you Aussies would have learnt something since the wog invasion after WWII.

Take Boon’s lead, he’s embraced it. Faark, if someone from Alberton can, anyone can.

OK, I need some time to settle down.

Play on.

Couple of slices of pizza from Atlas Continental in the markets.

Perfect way to end the work year, and not a supermarket smallgood in sight!

I occasionally go to Kalleske’s and grab a few 5 footers but then it’s just overkill as I cut off inch thick pieces

A tale of two Christmas lunches.

1. Traditional (wife’s side of the family, Aussies)

Small platter with leg ham, cheddar cheese (optional)
Roast pork and turkey, roast potatoes and carrots
Christmas pudding
Nescafé coffee
Cherries

All portions just barely enough to feed the number of guests

Christmas dinner not catered for, usually only on the rare occasion if there are leftovers

2. Wog version, my side

Large antipasto platters, min of 3 per table, authentic Italian smallgoods - capocollo, salami, mortadella, prosciutto, provolone, artichokes, marinated veggies.
Prawns - must be the biggest and dearest of the season, no less than 10kgs worth
Lupini beans
Crusty bread rolls
Lasagne and pasta
Roast chicken
2nd serving of prawns

Freshly percolated coffee, bottomless cup
Italian sweets - cannoli, sfogliatelle, panettone, tiramisu

Watermelon

All portions enough to feed 10x the number of guests for 2 weeks

Repeat lunch menu for Christmas dinner

We buy a Christmas Ham every year in early December and the families diet consists almost solely, of fried Christmas ham, between 2 thickly buttered pieces of bread.

The filthy animals I unfortunately call a family all add tomato sauce, the uncultured swine….

It’s the simple things in life… ;)
