OK--I was just teasing, anyway, because it's so expensive here. A whole leg, that is. I've seen half-legs but haven't priced them. Once we consumers of lamb talked the butchers into slicing us off some nice-sized steaks from the top of the leg, I was happy. Pass the mint jelly! (Or mint "sauce"?)

Hey, have you ever had "Branston Pickle"? I bought it two days ago in place of the chutney I usually buy, because I wanted to try it. It's delicious and I'm having some with cream cheese on a cracker.

(For those who know what Pickapeppa Sauce is, imagine that mixed with mincemeat--yeah, I know, sounds bad--but tastes gooood!)

Are you kidding Branston Pickle is part of staple British diet.

One of our favourite sandwiches is cheese and pickle and that means cheddar cheese and Branston Pickle, try it it is lovely with fresh soft white bread with a crispy crust.

Alternatively a ploughman's lunch:-
Chunk of Cheddar Cheese
Slice of fresh off the bone ham
Chunk of bread
Pickle onion
Tablespoon Branston Pickle
