smoked salmon and mature cheddar cheese baked as a pie topped with mashed potato
That sounds delicious.

Tea drunk the English way involves milk, y/n? I grew up drinking it that way, and I've only discovered recently that Americans aren't supposed to. Weird. Tea without is just too bitter.

I like to add decorative patterns to the top made from grated Red Leicester, which contrasts the flavour as well ;) Yesterday I had run out of Red Leicester, and was reduced to adding my initials in parsley :) I forgot to add, parsley is also included at every level of cheese.

From your tea drinking habits, you are clearly an English weasel. Are there any real life American weasels?

Parsley? This is new. I shall have to experiment.

There are real life American weasels, yeah--the name can refer to an entire genus, according to Wikipedia. They are native to every continent except Australia. I've never seen one in the wild.

How about stoats? They are relatives, but the stoat is stotally different, and the weasel is weasily identified ;)

I think they're considered to be the same thing in some regions. This is why universal taxonomy is so cool.

That sounds like a Jewish shepherd's pie, actually. We should experiment and perhaps patent the recipe.

Every time I go to the dentist, I get the same goddamned lecture: "quit drinking tea". I have inherited from my mother the tendency toward caffeine/nicotine stained teeth. My dad has super-yellow teeth, but just from inhumanly thick enamel. Wish I'd gotten that instead.
