The Easter ham is coming to an end and will be slow cooking all day in northern beans, celery, onions, and carrots.
At the moment, black coffee and croissants.
I still have lots of chocolate from a recent birthday as well as Easter presents from my students. 
Had grapefruit followed by Gentleman’s Relish on toast for breakfast, Moussaka for lunch and I haven’t decided what to have for dinner yet …
Bison, pepper salsa, bruschetta
How did you fit the bison on the bruschetta? Or was it just a hand bison?
For dessert, we are having trefoils/vanilla breyer’s ice cream sandwiches.
I bought the trefoils at work this week and hid them from my wife. I just got back from buying the ice cream.
A piece of Trader Joe’s veg sushi and some hummus and pita chips.
I feel rather boring now. 
I just had a tuna sandwich like normal. 
I just finished a small handfull of Chocolate Bullets… pieces of Licorice about 1" long x 3/16" diameter..coated in dark Chocolate.
I remember in the 1950’s ,you used to get 8 of them for a Penny…lovingly counted out by the bloke behind the counter..one by one !
Kitchen gantry crane, doesn’t every kitchen have one?
So bruschetta is just a fancy name for garlic toast? And I’ve been missing out on using this great snob word all these years? Oh là là, quel dommage !
If it’s any comfort to you, most of 'em pronounce it “bruh SHED uh”.
Jeppers! I had no idea it was a snob word! Silly me I thought it was Italian. 
I found out in Italy that the Italians pronounce it “bruh SKET uh”. I’ve heard a total of one English-speaker (Tim Minchin) pronounce it correctly.
I pronounce it correctly. It drives me nuts that people don’t. It’s like the word ‘lingerie’. I cannot for the life of me see why people almost universally pronounce it as ‘lon-zher-ray’. Wha??? 
The first time we had bruschetta was in Italy I’ve always pronounced it the way I was told. What drives me crazy is folks around here think bruschetta comes in a jar.
Because, and you know this, people who have had more exposure to French and/or German than Italian are not aware that ch makes a hard sound in the latter. I only know (and I have to stop and think about it at that) because I took a voice class once, and had to learn Vittoria Mio Core (which I don’t recommend to anyone.)

How do you pronounce it Ben? I’m only asking because, after watching Downton Abbey, I am aware that the fellow who brushes dust off the rich guy’s jacket is–in England–the VAL-ett, whereas over here we’re more apt to French-i-fry it and say val-AY.
So, as for ladies undies…lon-zher-ee, as in the French, or something more anglified? Of course the RAY has no place.
But to try to make a sweeping conciliatory observation, unless we are MTGuru, we are unlikely to know the pronunciation rules of every language and tend, therefore, to repeat what we hear.
