A sheep, a werewolf and a walrus walk into a bar. - Sheep Week 2: Attack of the Clones

Let's start the day, as all days should be started, with cake!

Maderia, Sponge or Jaffa cake earned you a single point.

Carrot cake doubled you up to 2.

Both cheesecake and coffee cake, two of my favourites, had 3 each.

Topping the board with a sheep of 8 is chocolate cake!

Why didn't you all go back and change your cake to carrot? Always double up! Angry

Apart from you Barna, you're a genius!

Pasta shapes were next.

If you went linguine, tagliatelle or fusilli, it's Ace city for you.

If you went with the second most popular, Penne, that's 6 points.

But the sheep went to the other half of Bolognese, Spaghetti, with 10 points!

After last week's Coffee cake discussion it doesn't sheep... Huh

Next up, our curry ingredients, you'd get an interesting result if you used all the ingredients mentioned and nothing else!

Rice aced it... I mean, it's more accompaniment than ingredient, but no wrong answers Big Grin

Coconut milk and Cumin were next up with 2 and 3 respectively.

Seems many of you cook with a specific meat, or were using the double up rule, Chicken was the choice of 6 of you.

Topping the list, with 7 points, was Curry powder!

Our final question on Day 2 had a nice big sheep, but first the aces...

Partridge (have never tried it, so will have to trust you that it's tasty)

Duck (ooooh I love duck, very very tasty)

Mila Kunis... I cannot argue that she's a tasty bird!

Big win for Chicken here! Which absolutely can be a tasty bird, congrats to 16 of you!

So Barna went for the double carrot-carrot, but then went chicken-partridge??!!

Day 3 questions are all about... Hobbies!

1. A team sport
2. A quiet activity
3. A craft
4. A collection
5. A musical instrument

Moving on up, moving on up!!

Day 2 was a disaster! Big Grin

Fuck - I had curry powder but I thought it was too general so I changed it to Cumin Sad

Me too! Although cumin is an ingredient of curry powder so we should really get the points. pac

Not high enough, not high enough!!

Plenty of time for your inevitable fall

Today's answers in with zero thought because I'm off to my first work lunch for over two and a half years!

(because I didn't work for a couple of years, not just because of covid)

I intend on it being drunken and lasting until 5, I hope everyone else agrees Tongue

Enjoy - I did the same the other day and ended up fairly well-oiled by half 4 Blush

I feared it'd be red velvet after all the discussion last week, and nobody went for it.

I didn't even think of curry powder

I picked curry powder because I can't cook for shit. I think those who went with the fancy ingredients are probably the better cooks?

Duck is the superior bird in fairness, but chicken was the only way to go.

Sending today's answers now!

I'm certainly not a better cook, just pedantic, but it backfired. Big Grin

Today's topics made me question whether I truly understand English. Pretty tough!

Nope

Jar of Sharwoods/Pataks finest didn't seem a fair answer, the closest I get to making a curry from scratch is when I chop meat and microwave some rice (MnS and even Tesco do some grand pre pack microwave ones... or the MnS Katsu Poke Bowl - a cold curry thingie but amazeballs...) Big Grin

I'll save my talents for baking Wink

though living alone, I've mostly decided not baking is a better option if I want to fit into my clothes Big Grin

Pataks korma paste is my favourite!

Completely understand on baking, I can't wait for my course to be back so I have people to pawn off my baked goods on!
