Yes, it's great that you're putting in the hard yards.
How good was Glee? Those Britney songs. Pop heaven. I'm not a fan of Glee, its okay for the music but they're all really lame actors. Quote:

Looks like our plans to include a gangster rap album in the Danielle Hope boxset have taken a turn for the worst...
She just tweeted that she doesn't have the rapping skills we all dreamt that she had. ![]()

The Lesson for today shall be 'How to make an Omelette'
1. One omelette will serve one person and, because it is so quick to make, it's not worth cooking a large one for two. So, according to how hungry you are, use 2-3 large eggs per person. For omelettes, the fresher the eggs the better, but up to two weeks old is fine. Just break the eggs carefully into a bowl and season with salt and freshly milled pepper. Blend the egg yolks and whites with a large fork – the number one rule is not to over-mix – no beating or whisking. At this stage you could add some snipped chives or perhaps 1½ oz (40 g) of grated cheese to the eggs if you like. These should be gently combined with the eggs using a fork. 2. The size of the pan is vital: too small and the omelette will be thick, spongy and difficult to fold, too large and the eggs will spread out like a thin pancake and become dry and tough. For a 2- or 3-egg omelette, the base should measure 6 inches (15 cm) in diameter. I recommend using a mixture of oil and butter, ½ teaspoon of each. Place the pan on the heat and let it get quite hot, add the butter and oil and as soon as it melts swirl it round, tilting the pan so that the base and the sides get coated. 3. Turn the heat up to its highest setting – when I first demonstrated this on television I said, 'As hot as you dare' and that still stands – then when the butter is foaming, pour the eggs into the pan, tilting it to and fro to spread the eggs evenly over the base. Leave it on the heat without moving it for a count of five. 4. After this time a bubbly frill will appear round the edge. Now you can tilt the pan to 45 degrees and, using a tablespoon, draw the edge of the omelette into the centre. The liquid egg will flow into the space, filling it. Now tip the pan the other way and do the same thing. Keep tilting it backwards and forwards, pulling the edges so that the egg can travel into the space left – all this will only take half a minute. 5. Soon there will be just a small amount of liquid left, just on the surface, so now is the time to start folding. Tilt the pan again and flip one side of the omelette into the centre then fold again. Take the pan to a warm plate and the last fold will be when you tip the omelette on to the plate. Remember, an omelette will go on cooking even on the plate, so serve it immediately. For this reason it is important to have some liquid egg left before you start folding, but if you have left too much, leave it to set on the plate before eating. The perfect omelette is one just tinged with gold on the surface and very soft and squidgy on the inside. |

Jim Carry all the way. Eddie Murphy has made some horrible movies. And no i'm not saying all his movies are terrible. He has made some good one's.

Yes I'd agree, Carrey's film list is pretty strong, its not often you get a bad movie with him in. Murphy can be a little too manic for his own good, having said that 'Daddy Day Care' is one of my all time favourite films.

Having learnt what 'ensemble' means, I have now learnt a totally new word: swing. These luvvies really do speak a language of their own. I HOPE Danielle never loses her Mancunian down-to-earthness.
I know Benny Goodman was King of Swing, but this is something different. Becky has explained on the forum. Last edited by sonnycorleone : 22-01-2011 at 14:49. Reason: Spelling |
