Pasty disaster!
 
I followed Boron's rcommendation and used the following site to make
pasties.
https://joepastry.com/2009/top_crimped_pasty_recipe/

Since I used pork instead of beef, I'll call them "Suffolk Pasties".
I bought the required veggies but the quantity after chopping was so
large that I had to make a second batch of pastry and ended up making
eight instead of the four in the recipe.
I ate one for dinner last night and it was delicious (Dave Smith ©) due
in part to the use of leeks instead of onions.
I put 3 in the fridge for the next few days meals and put the other 4 in
Ziploc containers for freezing. As I was carrying them downstairs to the
freezer in the basement, I stumbled and dropped the containers. They
broke open, send the pies flying and the stairs were covered with bits
of the pasties.
So I ended up with the recipes number anyway.
No picture. They looked OK but not at all photogenic as it was a bugger
to fold and crimp the shortcrust pastry. I think using bought puff
pastry would have been better from that point of view. However, the
pastry was "melt-in-the-mouth" tender.
Next time I will make conventional double crust pies.

It is delicious. However, I question the sizes of the veggies in the
recipe. His leeks must have been the size of salad onions and the
rutabaga the size of a walnut:-)

If I recall correctly from last time, I cut the leek down the middle,
top to bottom, quartered it, and sliced almost into a chiffonade. I
had gotten the smallest leek I could find

I used white turnip- much easier to cut. Rutabagas are not easy to get
here all year round. They mostly appear in November and hang around a
bit past Christmas. Slight diff in texture and taste, I admit, with
the turnip being a tad peppery, which I liked.

I have made pasties that stand up. I think they're easier to make than trying to seal one laying on its side. I've got some lard in my fridge but am afraid to use it. In my thinking, the idea of pig fat in a block is kind of disgusting. Making a regular double crust pie is a very practical idea but it's kind of boring and makes it harder for you to pack a lunch for your hard-workin' woman.

Years ago, I fried up a bunch of oysters (I love them!).

Had me a big ole plate full, but I tripped walking out of the
kitchen. Took a lot of cussing to keep from crying.

Fried oysters...YUM. In your case, I probably would have eaten them
anyway, dirt and all. :)

Once when I was 19, I made a full plate of spaghetti (pasta with red
sauce). As I was going up the stairs with it, I tripped on a step.
I caught my fall forward with my left hand and managed to keep the plate
level in my right hand but the momentum caused the whole pile of
delicious spaghetti to slide forward...right off the end of the plate
and splat on a step.

It was a carpeted stairway and real mess to clean up.

Sorry for the incident but it sure would have made for an interesting
food pic here... stairs covered with bits of the pasties. We could have
zoomed in on one of the larger bits to judge your cooking. ;-D

When a pan of oil on the stove caught fire, an acquaintance of mine
grabbed the pan to take it outside. As he was passing through the door,
the wind blew it back and he spilled the oil.
His house burned down.

I hope that he was okay. A friend of mine had separated and moved back
to his parents' house. He was making some fries and the pot of oil
caught fire. He grabbed the handle and headed outside with it. No house
fire, but his hand was really badly burned.

Kitchen oil fires can be deadly. A cousin of mine was widowed, due to
her husband's accident with a chip pan. Hot oil and gas hobs...

He was a stoic, elderly farmer. A kind and generous man. He rebuilt on
the old basement. Cancer (unrelated) got him a few years later.

The safest range one could have is an induction range. You could still get burnt from boiling water and hot oil but the chances of a fire is greatly reduced. It's the perfect range for elderly folks.

Especially when the salad bar at the local buffet is fully stocked. My favorite is olives with french fries.
