the Cook the Thief Stepford Wives and Barbera Good

Advantages: being a foodie can be good for you
Disadvantages: it can also be obsessional

...be very unpopular. Any budding Barbera's out there? At the moment I spend out of each £100 about £50 in big chains, £30 in discounters and £20 in independents / convenience. We really could do with a big public central market in Glasgow. When I lived in Cardiff, Newcastle and Bristol I used to buy a lot of fruit and veg off the market. Q2: Are you aware of any food produce(s) made in your area specifically? Yes Scotland produces excellent food but despite this the Supermarkets insist on flying tomatoes in from Holland and Potatoes from Egypt? Why? I have also noticed that the fresh meat sections are getting smaller as people are presumably getting lazier at cooking. I couldn't get a joint of lamb ANYWHERE in the city centre yesterday for my Rogan Josh. Shame!!! Did you know that the Romans brought tomatoes to Lanarkshire...

Dream matte mousse foundation

Advantages: easily blendable, a good range of realistic skin tones
Disadvantages: rubs off easily, expensive for the amount you get.

...When new, it has a very smooth, velvety texture, but as it gets used and a month or so goes by, it tends to dry out and become crumbly. it glides over your skin easily, and leaves a smooth finish, not a pruduct to use in winter as the result is very monotone, with no dimension. Can also be very drying to the skin, i would not reccomend it to people with blemishes or combination skin, as by the end of the day can turn patchy. As an almost transluscant foundation, it is very useful for hiding dark circles and unwanted red patches. Overall a decent foundation when used in the right way on the right skin types, although there are now many other, just as good, cheaper versions, such as Barbera Daley for Tesco....

Tom and Jerry cartoons

Advantages: Loads of fun watching this DVD
Disadvantages: no disadvantages

...I think among all the cartoon series that have ever been made Tom and Jerry is the most loved and most successful. I love the never ending Chase and the comedy in these serials.However much he tries,Tom is never able to catch Jerry, who is too clever and cunning .And the situations are so very comical. Some of these cartoons are nearly sixty years old , the first ones were made in the 1940's . They were created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera and made in MGM studios in the Hollywood, then it has been made over and over again right until now.A feature film was made in 1993, which was a super duper success. Today it is being made by the Warner Brothers who own the rights to Tom and jerry. ------------------------------------------------------------- ---- ------------------ Tom And Jerry - Vol. 1-12 (Box Set...

Review of Tom and Jerry

Best pasta sauce I've ever known

Advantages: Tasty and flavoursome pasta sauce!
Disadvantages: You'll want to eat the pot.

...with 5 - 7 friends or so with copious amounts of wine. Note *I recommend a red wine (such as barbera, dolcetto, and valpolicella as they have a tangy acidity and bright fruit. Avoid heavy, tannic reds.) *Certain whites also work well with tomato sauce too though. Aim for a vibrant, zesty white, such as Loire Valley muscadet or Italian pinot grigio. *If you want to make this for less people e.g. 4 then just adjust the measurements to suit. *Every time I make this dish people always ask me for the recipe...keep it under your hat ;-) Mamma Mia...............

Alright Said Fred

Advantages: Graphics feel right out of cartoon, decent level design, tricky initially
Disadvantages: Quite some sprite flicker, not too challenging, musically lacking

...a life, the player starts at a check point with less coins and can go backwards if they feel the need to top up, and this triggers a previous check point. With infinite continues, the challenge is to have the lifes last for level completion. Aside from the familiar faces (including the cameo appearance of a character from another Hanna Barbera cartoon), the likes of the dinosaurs - whether they be providing platforms or operating machines, the use of birds for basketball hoops, the backdrops as well as the animation, help create the feel of the cartoon. However, there is much sprite flicker, which could be why the opening cutscene appears as if it were shaded from the Game Boy's colour palette. The sound effects are limited and the music is lacklustre. The theme for the opening cutscene loops at around 5 seconds, and it's not the last...

Saucy Accompaniment to Pasta

Advantages: Quick, easy to make, cheap
Disadvantages: May give heartburn

...I asked my mother, the other day, what makes a good pasta sauce, and she turned round to me (on the phone, not in person) and said: “Luigi, make sure you have good tomatoes and a good, dry, red wine”. She also said that you must not let the sauce boil for too long or else it will ruin the flavour. “Furthermore, let me advise that you have something in the sauce, little bits of bacon or croutons, so they can chew or crunch them,” she added. “Mamma, would you give me a recipe that I can make for Bernie?” I asked. “Ma certo!” So here it is, straight from home, and made “Alla Piemontese” ** Ingredients ** 225g (8 oz.) of bacon. 4 medium-sized vine tomatoes, ripe. ½ Cup / 4fl-oz (120ml) of extra-virgin olive oil ½ Cup / 4fl-oz (120ml) of dry red wine (mamma suggests either Chianti or Barbera) Season to taste with: onion...

Ho hum

Advantages: Few and far between
Disadvantages: Kid's stuff

...William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, the kings of American kids' animated TV series, have a lot to answer for - among other things they ruined my youth with the regular 20 minute spot on BBC TV at tea time devoted to the adventures of a cowardly Great Dane and his human chums - yes, you got it - Scooby Doo, Where Are You? Well, in 1998 the dynamic duo went one further, releasing a feature length version for the cinema, the expansively titled Scooby Doo On Zombie Island, in the words of Shaggy, "Zoinks! It's a regular zombie jamboree!" So what do you get for all the trouble? Well at least Freddie changed his clothes for once in his worthless life ... but he's the only one who did because the rest of the gang is dressed in exactly the same clothes as they ever were, even after all this time, Shaggy, Velma (I always thought it was...
