jw1739 Posted May 11, 2017 Report Share Posted May 11, 2017 Items in dispute with MrsJW (although I've given up disputing) include: - sauces, condiments, pickles and relishes (e.g. tomato sauce, HP sauce, barbeque sauce, chillie sauce, hoy sin sauce, mustards, mustard pickle, gherkins, beetroot slices etc. etc.). - condensed milk. I say no, she says yes. I say if you need to put them in the fridge then you've bought too big a bottle darling. Anyway, the main problem is that I can't find the condensed milk when I want a condensed milk sandwich, because it's hidden somewhere in amongst the other stuff. And yes, I used to use a teaspoon to scrape up the left-over cake mix from the bowl when Mum used to make cakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condensed milk, and brown sugar, sandwiches were both incomparable delicacies and luxuries of my childhood. Two slices of bread (white of course) thickly spread with imported NZ butter, topped by lashings of the aforesaid Nestle's condensed milk or brown sugar. Often given to children for their school lunches, but more often than not consumed on the way to school in the mornings. You younger chaps don't know what you've missed out on. Very Anglo of course. Johnno will confirm all the above. And the scraping of the mixing bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some weird preserved apricots that mother in law put in their when we got married but for some reason were not allowed to throw out (greeks). Vegemite which on toast for me is the best breakfast. Pantry. Any carbo dry stuff. By the way I got 2 fridges always full. Garage one is basically drinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Cured meats and extra blocks of cheese, additional alcohol for random relative showings, in the second fridge. All the things on HeartFC list in the first fridge unless you have a litre tub of each that you got off your wog mate then second fridge. Third fridge is purely alcohol unless you have fresh seafood or meat prepared for the days event. Also more often than not the second fridge will be the furthest away with the first fridge and third within closer proximity.
