Who ruffles Annes Truffles

Dear blogger, do you know what my wish is ?,

That Pauline makes more delicious dishes, !!

We may live without ; poetry, music and art,

We may live without conscience - and fart like a tart,

We may live without friends,

We may live without books,

But we cannot live without Pauline - the cook !!!

We sated as she plated dish after dish,

Annes hopes of a win disappeared with a squish,

We could not get enough, I swear - her chicken - nothing could compare,

We epicures were ecstatic, - Paulines win is only fair, !! - ( pardon the pun ),

Dear Pauline, you were full of the milk, ( and wine and beer ) of human kindness, so - may your COFFEE, and any slurs, slights, slagging, or slander , be always the same - without GROUNDS.

PS, at a lot of restaurants I have visited the word WAITER, would more aptly describe me sitting at the table, this was definitely not the case at Chez Pauline,

Life would be COMPLETE, if we could always EAT,

at Paulines !!!.,

Cheers, - BOB. President and sole member of the finer diner club.

Here, fishy fishy

I just ADORE fish and everything from the sea. In fact, I am going fishing tomorrow.!!!!!

Fish supper - especially for Pauline!

Caught this tonight in Skerries just going to freeze it ready for my dinner!

The herbs are coming along nicely!

Only needed a small line made of string and a large jam jar!

Our Points

Oh B.T.W. our score for the evening was 9/10

Our Experience at Pauliene's - Come Dine in Lisk

The evening started with the grand tour of the new house. It was like getting a tour of a show house every little detailed was addressed. The showers in both bathrooms were very impressive not to mention the bidet in the master bathroom……… oh and the flat screen T.V’s in every room……….. Dinner went very well – service was excellent and the food was delicious. Soup starter very nice (it even had a nice dollop of cream in it), chicken main course with roasted vegetables and potatoes really good too but the trifle for desert was excellent. Choice of Red wine excellent too. From there we moved into the sitting room for the evening’s entertainment – which was getting a taste of Pauline’s 3D television - talk about show off……… There were nibbles on the table crips, sweets- jelly babies chocolate éclairs etc… The conversation was flowing and the crack was 90ty. The night was a total success excellent food and great company very enjoyable indeed. Here’s hoping the next nite will be as impressive. God only knows what entertainment Pam and Ann have up their sleeves….. Not that Pam is competitive at all………..

on hindsight I must amend my score

all the best people do this and therefore I am reducing my score to 8.75 otherwise I will not win!

But it was still a great night! It is me next and I have selected my menu and planted my herbs here's hoping they will be up in a month! - no pressure

it is now the Witches of Lusk!

The voting is becoming serious all sorts of skull duggery are afoot! I think the voting is rigged already!

Table cloth that puts everything onto the floor

Here is an example of the magic table cloth

Bribery with Jelly babies

she is now over heard asking for votes...... oh and the tablecloth that drops everything on to the floor is available in Argos

Required score update

She is not too happy with the score - 3D telly, jelly babies and a tablecloth that the spills just fall off on to the floor! so here is my revised score

First Night of Come Dine in Lusk

Our first evening was spent with our dear neighbour Pauline - she invited the 6 of us over for dinner in her new home. It is great to see her so happy and settled in her new home - it has two showers and she has wonderful neighbours!

Pauline spared no efforts to try and achieve the perfect score this evening - and I am sure my co-diners will add their comments to endorse the fact. So over to them!
