    NSD number 18

    Made our own pizzas tonight.
    For my pizza I started with a blank pizza base.
    Spooned on tomato pur!e (mixed with water and oregano).
    Next a little greated cheese (cheddar).
    Italian ham, mushrooms, onion and fresh baby tomatoes placed on top.
    Then a little finely sliced Parmesan cheese.
    Baked in a very hot oven for 6 minutes.
    Once cooked placed more fresh ham, rocket lettuce, a drizzle of pizza express house light dressing and finally some more shavings of fresh Parmesan Cheese. Yum, yum. It was scrummy and much cheaper than a restaurant pizza.

    Good morning NSD gang! Are we all sleeping in today? Chef has breakfast on the go, pancakes served with syrup and fruit and yoghourt made from the milk of the Transylvanian mountain yak - where's the bacon and eggs, I hear you cry?

    Remember our host, Igor's uncle, the twin of the one accidentally reduced to ashes by Mrs Doyle's obsession with curtains and sunlight? He is a strict vegetarian, (obviously has brought shame on the family) and has banned all animal products from the menu, apart from the yoghourt. It seems that the yak needs milking several times a day or it gets so stressed out it commits suicide by throwing itself into the ravine. Therefore, Igor's uncle says we are doing it a favour by milking it and making butter, cheese and yoghourt.

    So, for the last few days of our break, expect loads of yak dairy products on the menu. Igor, you heard your uncle - get your bucket and get milking the Transylvanian Suicide Mountain Yak!
