I'm finding that mid 'lady' cycle my usual carb craving has been replaced by the need for salty and sweet, I found some butter fudge with sea salt yesterday that did the trick...but I love caramel pretzels too...
What's it about? There used to be a time when a hunk of bread and butter would do the trick...no...now I'm going all Nigel Slater when my hormones run amok!

Turning posh, innit. As a matter of interest, where did you buy the pretzels? ~ It is always by way of pain one arrives at pleasure ~ | |

Don't let @Carenza_Lionheart see this blog, she's very odd about sweet & savoury. Fruitcake and cheese, anyone? Not huffy or stuffy, nor tiny or tall,
But fluffy, just fluffy, with no brains at all. | |

I am sooo glad to read this as I thought it was just me lol .... slated peanuts and chocolate in the same mouthful usually work for me "You and you alone make me feel that I am alive. Other men it is said have seen angels, but I have seen thee and thou art enough." ~ George Moore | |

A friend of mine is obsessed with the quest for the perfect sweet and salty combo. He's been known to enjoy chuppa-chupps dipped in humus and prawn crackers dipped in ice cream. Yuk. He's male and gay so it can't be a lady cycle thing, lol. I need to introduce him to you so you can inject some gastronomical sophistication into him. | |

yes! Fruitcake and cheese is very doable! Also I've been cooking 16th/17thc food for 20 years now, and they often used odd combos... lots of fruit and meat together, I have a recipe for 'beef burgers' essentially just mince beef and (Christmas) Mince meat mixed together and cooked as a pattie. K x

Salted caramel cupcakes from Cherry Vampyre I find are pretty phenomenal. Using milkshake to bring all the boys to my yard since 1972 | |

Nigella's peanut Crunchie chocolate bar is, frankly, the balls. xxx "The less said about life's sores, the better." |
