    The best combination is: Anything I like + somebody cooking it for me.

    It doesn't matter if they're a good cook or not - most people are poor cooks if we're honest .... a simple "I'll make that" - implying I turn up and just eat .... is the best combination of all. Burnt sausages!!??? NOM!! Pie with brittle/dry pastry??? Bring it on.... just make gravy ... yes, even that thick gloopy stuff you seem to like. Brussels boiled for 2 hours? Thank you for cooking for me :)

    Unfortunately .... it's rare.

    Hummus sarnie with grated carrot

    yum my favourite, I will also add sweetcorn if I have some to use up. Not only great in a sandwich but good on a jacket potato.

    A thought popped into my head yesterday evening....why does soup taste so much better with bread?

    After all, although delicious bread is a bland foodstuff. Whereas a decent soup is highly flavoured. The soup in question was spicy butternut squash, if it makes any difference :D

    And OH discovered this one (don't ask me how...) - bite the ends of a KitKat finger, and use as a straw to drink red wine.
