The ploughman's lunch, a British pub menu staple, includes everything from hard cheeses and chutneys to fresh bread and cold meats. While it is often associated with farmers, the contemporary form we enjoy today most likely developed in the 1950s and was popularised in the 1960s, due to an advertising effort undertaken by the UK's Milk Marketing Board to encourage cheese sales.
Further to my post dated 2nd November 2024 (zafoid.com/post/view/11550), here are two more mouth-watering images of the famous Italian carbonara. (Click on the images to see them full-size.)
Eric Roberts is an American actor who has amassed more than 700 credits and is one of the most prolific English-speaking screen actors. He typically plays manipulative villians, such as Paul Snider, the homicidal husband of Playboy playmate Dorothy Stratten, in Bob Fosse’s 1983 biopic “Star 80”, in the 1996 Doctor Who movie, where he was cast as the Master (Doctor Who's archenemy), as the mob boss Sal Maroni, an enemy of Batman in the 2008 movie "The Dark Knight", and as James Munroe, the lead villain in the 2010 movie "The Expendables". He is also Julia Roberts' brother.
Eric Roberts resides in a secluded Sherman Oaks home in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles, with his wife of 26 years, and a brood of felines. The residence's grounds cover approximately 0.32 acres, and include a garden, patio and pool.

Eric Roberts selected his Sherman Oaks residence for its ability to offer respite from the relentless public attention that comes with a successful acting career, which stands in contrast to the more frenetic energy of nearby Hollywood.
This how "Ancient Aliens" on History Channel fakes images. An image of the original relief carving from the Temple of Isis at Philae, an island on the Nile River (which has since been painstakingly relocated on Agilkia island between 1977 and 1980 because of the construction of the Aswan Dam), has been clearly photoshopped to include an alien-looking face (upper part), and a flying saucer (lower part of the image). It is very disappointing that this series has resorted to such dirty tricks. (Please click on the images to see them in full size.)
Our thoughts and prayers go for the six people who were injured in Żabbar on Saturday morning, 28th December 2024, after a car ploughed into the open air market apparently accidentally.

David Bowie was a self-confessed alcoholic!
The singer of “Space Oddity“ (1969) had resolutely turned his back on alcohol and drugs, to the extent that he refused to drink even a glass of wine, ever again.
Bacon is a fantastic ingredient, and goes well with pasta. Shown here (starting from top left) are mushroom and pasta bake, followed by two successive images of the famous carbonara, and finishing with tagliatelle with bacon and mushrooms.
