    @acpgee I can't figure out what this is... sweet dumplings with caramel sauce and ice cream? Meatballs with mashed potatoes? Intriguing :D

    Baked apple with lots of nutmeg and caramel sauce with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. MFP posts photos in a random order when I click multiple photos.

    We finally managed to think of dinner early enough to order an alternative meal of shrimp stir fry.

    Savoury peanut sauces for sesame noodles, satay, gado gado and west african soups are applications where I find substituting some of the peanut butter with PB2 tastes acceptable.

    Thanks. Didn't think of that. I see on their website there's a PB2 protein-only offering, no sugar or salt. Before reading your suggrstion, I was thinking I'd use less PB next time per the amount of veg & noodles and probably thin it out a little more with more added water. I actually overestimated the PB amount I needed to compensate for the added veg over a more typical plain or "classical" peanut sauce noodle dish. You can see that in the photo. I didn't mind, I love PB - it's a debate as to whether or not PB or cheese is my downfall - and my concoction for this first attempt is PB-heavy, which also meant more tahini etc in proportion. And all full fat. It's funny, I've never tried PB2 (my protein powder of choice is typically plain whey); it's because I'm a little afraid of the powder form. I actually have a conflict with PB - one daughter has the severe form of the peanut allergy, and we banished peanuts entirely from the house for years until she was out and married. She's moved out of the area (love takes you places...), and I have plenty of time to ensure the kitchen is fully safe before her visits. It's like keeping plutonium as a pantry ingredient - nothing gets cross-contaminated - which is more a concern in my mind with loose powder than goop. I do appreciate the suggestion, thanks again.

    Tomorrow I will be returning to London after visiting mom in Canada. Was planning to visit the supermarket tonight to drag home stuff from childhood I can’t buy in England like strawberry and banana flavoured Jello and a jar of relish. Maybe Cheese Whizz if I can find it in a tube. Any other suggestions?

    My friends in Quebec always load up on poutine gravy and ketchup chips.

    I have to think what I would get in NY .. hmm. 🤔

    @SafariGalNYC Ask them about "all dressed" chips, too, LOL. I'm more partial to ketchup chips, but the fam likes these others. My daughter's up in Ontario.

    @acpgee - of course, maple anything. The question is, what can you bring home to the UK through customs? Since I'm a salmon fan, I always like to grab a vacuum pack of maple salmon at the duty free when I come across the border, it's great for parties. I have some maple "butter" (not really butter but a maple sugar spread I tried for baking), maple syrup (real, 100%), and even "Wayne Gretzgy Maple Canadian Cream" (like Bailey's, but maple-y), and more.

    Enjoy your hike. Many people not from here wouldn't realize there's a lot of great hiking in NJ. Granted, it's not the Rockies, but still nice. Along with other outdoor activities. The state isn't all concrete and landfills.

    omg wow that sounds good! I may need to stay away from this thread haha

    From their website: The perfect hattrick of Wayne Gretzky No.99 Red Cask Whisky, 100% farm-fresh Canadian cream and natural flavours create this ultra-smooth liqueur. Delicate tan colour with caramel, cream, maple syrup, pastry, and spice notes.

    Also, your breads are beautiful.
