Will you help to feed the Fatman? Simple, all you have to do is
devise one full day's menu plan consisting of nothing but the foods and beverages mentioned in the songs of Tull and Ian Anderson. Good luck!
Jeff

This is a Sunday meal for you Fatman. One in which well start you off with a Buck's Fizz (in hand). And all though I'd like to serve you something of substance, all I could find in me mum's kitchen is some bread and jam. So down a few more Buck's Fizz and we're all happy! And how about a little Sunday BBQ Donald Trump style? Help yourself to some gristled burgers and frazzled fries. And wash that down with a Pepsi-cola or even a cold beer if you haven't already over- done-it with the Buck's Fizz. If you're in in the mood for some sweets, please help yourself to some candy floss or sweatheart kisses. I had them brought in from the market. On to dinner. How 'bout a cocktail to start? Rum & cola perhaps or maybe a gin and tonic? First course will be a saute-simmer, shallow fry-ed soft shell crab over some rice - spiced of course. We also have delicious salad, with chunks of lobster in a sparkling wine vinaigrette. Next, choose from either our famous frog, goat and chicken stew, or perhaps you'd like to kick it up a notch with some Vindaloo? Desert? A glass of 18 year old malt whiskey is a must, followed by some jasmine tea, and ...you guessed it bread and jam. Cheers!  |

Clinically obese person , Jeff -mon, ( none of that is true , as I have met him and I can only refer to him as 'phat-man')
Still feeling guilty about not being able to find an all night eatery on your trip to Schenectady, but would like to make it up to you with a Tull menu.
The one thing I do know, is there seems to be an abundance of alcohol mentioned here.
Leave the sweet water and Pepsi-Cola at home.
Feel free to have all the effing tea you want though!
The tea-lady can bring you a cup of tea, Jasmine tea, high tea, afternoon tea, , tea on toast, another cup, (if you're so inclined,) and I don't give a rat's ass if you even want to dance in your teacup!
No reason for gristled burgers, frazzled fries or curried goat in a paper cup (seriously, is that a holiday specialty?!) today.
No, my hungry friend, we will start simply with some eggs over easy (non-squeezy type) frosty flakes (empty platform optional), toast (butter running) the two biscuits ( with the morning paper mystery) will have to wait for dinner and top it off with a bowl of cherries.
My world also includes Coke and Bacardi as breakfast food.
Fish and chips, chilling ale (hold the galliards) for lunch and a slap upside the head to the waitress who had the audacity to try to slip me some jam sarnies!
Jelly sandwiches! Are you kidding me!? No tip for you!
{Throwing back a six or two -makes me more tolerant and ready to dine*}
* The Cup of Wonder website states this is a reference to the dice game , craps, but I will take liberty with my lyrical interpretation and think of six as my assault on the first quarter of my case of beer.
Time for mussels at the oyster bar.
Maybe a breath of champagne (sparkling nights only)
Or a sip of hearty, sparkling, fizzy wine.
Your choice on a diversified menu : Fillet of Sole, soft shell crab, lobster, lamb...but what gives ?! I'm at the Paradise Steakhouse for Crap's Sake!
Where the hell is the red meat !
How hard can it be to sneak up on cattle quietly grazing and distant cows lowing!!? I'd even take one of those hefty horsies!
Pumpkin eating ,apple pie (sans mouse) Hunting Girl rounds out dessert.
Whiskey, malt whiskey, gin and tonic , scotch and water ,beer
grants me another invitation, Sleeping With The Dog.
Dan

Hmmm. I gotta say. TM, your menu sounds disgusting and Dan's yours is a bit over the top...and too much booze. LOL.
And Jeff, the reason for my lite menu? I thought you wanted to lose a bit of weight? (Rather be a thin man...)
There is no pleasing you! Or any man for that matter...I think you saw how recently I wrote about this in my status on FB...ha...and if you read my other status update you'd know that 'round here...the fly is in the milk and the cat's in the stew, NOT another bun in the oven but there is no jam for tea....

Nice pic of you and Giddy. Never saw that one before. Just popping in as H1N1 is in our house right now, and it's nasty...but I had to reply.... You may be the exception. I am married to a guy who really doesn't like any food, he's usually quite the critic. I am very used to it actually. But when you say you are fine as long as you have food, are you picky about the food? He is, and would die if he couldn't have pizza. Perhaps I was mean to just leave Jeff crumbs on a breakfast table...but this guy I married also doesn't eat breakfast. Unlike Dan, he'd rather have chicken than red meat and would rather have carbs than the chicken ,but he'll eat anything gamey. That he's killed. It's interesting trying to make dinner around here.....So that's where I got that from...the not being able to please a man....because that's my reality...Everything I make is too dry, cooked too long, not long enough, too cheesey, weird ingredients, NOT the way his mom made it....ugh...so I've given up... And...I think I posted that pic at the official website then took it down at the advice of others..because sometimes there was freaky deaky people there. But now, I'm like, I don't really care who sees me? What does it really matter? Not a thing. TM took this picture with his cell phone, hence the grainy quality...this was five years ago. One of the funnest nights ever! Wished he would've had taken a pic of me and Ian or me with Martin the next night...but oh wellsy. Going to go dive in VapORub...... |

I am married to a guy who really doesn't like any food, he's usually quite the critic. I am very used to it actually. But when you say you are fine as long as you have food, are you picky about the food? ..........No, I'll eat most anything. Both my wife and I are good cooks so food is bliss. He is, and would die if he couldn't have pizza. Perhaps I was mean to just leave Jeff crumbs on a breakfast table...but this guy I married also doesn't eat breakfast. .........Me either, unless a Hershey Bar qualifies. Unlike Dan, he'd rather have chicken than red meat and would rather have carbs than the chicken ,but he'll eat anything gamey.

He must have been an only child, or the baby of the family. I've seen that manifestation many times. Just put the food in front of him and say "eat it or starve." And...I think I posted that pic at the official website then took it down at the advice of others..because sometimes there was freaky deaky people there.

One of the funnest nights ever! Wished he would've had taken a pic of me and Ian or me with Martin the next night...but oh wellsy. ..........You may have sent it to me once but my old computer died a horrible and twisting, smoking, ugly death last year (I shot it with my 45 to put it out of it's missery) so I lost all my virtual stuff. I had a good fifteen minute or so conversation with Andy down by the Mississippi in Memphis before a show once. He was out in the crowd taking pics and saw me watching a helicopter hovering over the river. "Someone fall off in the drink?" he said. Which I think is actually what happened. Going to go dive in VapORub...... ..........Sounds aromatic. Hope you can swim. |

Otherwise known as swine flu? For the most part....Last year I screamed when I opened our downstairs fridge to find two dead ducks in it. Not skinned, plucked, nothing...Like they were killed and went from the water to my fridge. I'm not all about that... . Yeah, but no he has two silbings but they do the same thing. And yes I've adopted that way of tihnking... Oh that's too bad...I think Andy said something really funny when that pic was taken...I was laughing, but I don't remember what exactly...  .. the whole thing is horrible... |

Better not read…
Hello breakfast, the best cup of coffee you ever had, and my mum’s jam sarnies. Lunch at an Indian restaurant to curry your fame, the Fatman needs a big portion of Vindaloo. Dinner - A portion or two of cockles & mussels. Some really red chilli, you’re going to need to stretch for that. Later that same evening just a little mac from the burger trade. Candy Floss treat. Counting lambs, counting sheep, you day dream of Sunday barbecues, as you eat some frazzled fries...no bread, no butter. A lot of coke and Bacardi to forget all this because you’ll be exercising on the old treadmill before the next supermarket run on a hunger hate for warm milk, apple pie, loaves, and fishes. The toad in the hole is compliments of Ian's solo cooking, dig it.
Enough….
