Default Old Lady lunch today

I had more cucumber in the fridge that I thought so I made some open
face cucumber sandwiches. I had some nice sourdough whole wheat bread. I
slathered it with cream cheese and topped them with some slices of
cucumber that had been doused with vinegar. Topped the works with some
chopped fresh dill. I am left wondering why it seems to be that only
old ladies like cucumber sandwiches. They are delicious.

I only ever had them twice. At the Curiositea shop that was in Edmond when I
was a kid. I liked them and I liked the shop. They sold British things.
Sadly, they didn't last.

Sounds good to me, I love cucumber sammages. Never tried it with cream
cheese & dill, but I will soon.

I made that cucumber salad again the other night (cucumber/dill/sour
cream) to go with a roast rolled pork shoulder. That leftover pork
turned into a stew last night - the first pork stew I've made,
actually. I'll be doing that again...

Tonight's dinner is a mystery ATM, as I'm having dinner at a friend's
place.

Kewl, has anyone taken possession of the British Isles yet?
If not, I get first dibs. My first act will be to dig up Thatcher, and
burn her at the stake.

I don't know where you get your ideas, but it is bacon in a sandwich!!!!

Butty = sandwich or roll.

Old lady lunch? Ensure and prunes.

FWIW, I had a few prunes yesterday. I'm fond of many kinds of
dried fruit (in moderation) as a snack. Lots of carbs, but
better than hitting the snack machine at the office for potato
chips.

I love prunes. I like them raw or stewed. I have also used pitted prunes
to stuff pork chops braised in apple juice.

Perhaps she's confusing it with a chip butty?

a "Butty" is a sandwich made with thick cut bread slices or Bread bun.

It's a Northern expression, in the South it would be more likely called
a "Bacon Roll".

Simple mistake. She's thinking of a chip butty rather than a
bacon butty.

I thought it was an expression used primarily in Lancashire and perhaps the west riding of Yorkshire. That's usually called the North Midlands. (Anyone got any hairs?)

I like all kinds of dried fruit, as is or as a compote (hot or cold).
