We were eating relatively healthy before Mark got sick two years ago and now, knowing what we know about (processed) food, we are on a plant-based "diet" and feeling better for it. Sometimes, we do still splurge on sausages and chocolate chip cookies, though. :-)Liesbethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13402741679152508367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717926498377706091.post-51481084809551578942017-01-27T13:03:00.802-08:002017-01-27T13:03:00.802-08:00ANYTHING with gravy is my comfort food, and Bill m...ANYTHING with gravy is my comfort food, and Bill makes the best!

Matt cooked them up with an amazing wine and onions sauce, and we make mash out of instant mash. We even had a beer with this dinner! There is never any question about who is making dinner on our boat. The trick is to burn / destroy / mess up three dinners in a row, right at the beginning, so dinner duties are never again assigned to this terrible cook. Anyway, there are more bangers in the freezer so I vote we celebrate our joint Bahamian arrival in 2020 with a bangers and mash dinner!
