Around the World in 80 Plates.

[Halex]

Prmoise we ill be leaving soon, tomorrow  hopefully if there is a flight out to wherever???

[gertbysea]

As we are all anxious to get started on the journey and believe me have now seen enough if Buenos Aires, we are about to take off for our next destination.

We will leave Hally  to pop her chimichurri  recipe in the new thread when she has time. No pressure.

This is one party town believe me.

I was out the other night and I met a fellow in a bar, as you do, and he told me tale so what could I do but race out and buy some ingredients. Seems the people wintering at Mawson Base had run out of Sledging Biscuits. Ok you will have to use Mr Google. I ain't doing everything for you.

Anyway here I am just about to take off for a 6171 klm mercy flight to Mawson Base.

We will be doing a touch and go because you know how I hate the cold and it is -20 today.

 




Now pop over to Around the World in Eighty Plates  for the recipe. 

We have enough fuel to take us exactly  3864 Kilometres to our next destination.

It is gunna be a long day.

Well we  dropped off the sledging cookies and are on are way to Christchurch where it is slightly warmer. Anyone up for a Kiwi Recipe?

[Mama Fergie]

Gert is it thermie recipes or any style of cooking recipes?

[gertbysea]

Whatever takes your fancy!  Be nice if they were Thermothingys but no matter. After Christchurch we are going somewhere  I am pretty sure there will be no Thermomachines but there will be  lots of fresh  food to play with and we will be warm.

Have you got a favourite dish from New Zealand Mama Fergie?

My DH has several favourite recipes from NZ and he grew up in Christchurch, so I'm bound to be able to post one,
probably Maori Mud. Glad the weather has warmed up it was snowing a fortnight ago when he was there.

Go for it Mcmich. The sooner posted the sooner we can move on to warmer waters about  2995.5  nautical miles north and east of Christchurch.

Yeah the Chimchurri is great H. Love it . Argentina  was great and thanks for taking the time . Hope you and your dear friend and families are hanging in there. Monday will soon be here and gone and she will know more after the surgery.

Mean while the rest of us  are  resting in Christchurch looking around and seeing how they are coping with the rebuilding.  Such a beautiful city. http://www.christchurch.org.nz/

It was a beautiful city. Would any of you mind if DH posts his late mums rocky road recipe?
It's not particularly an NZ recipe or TMX but he feels that's what Christchurch is now - A Rocky Road.

[gertbysea]

Yum that would be a lovely thing to take on our next leg. Anyway we are in Christchurch only until a recipe is posted so first in eh?
