Sticky Toffee Pudding

Until last night I was a virgin.

A sticky toffee pudding virgin.



You Brits sit there, mouths agape, shocked to imagine that someone has not tasted the sweet goodness of your native pudding.

I’d always wanted to taste the treat, based on the appeal of its name…

Sticky

Toffee

Pudding

Each word sounds delicious on its own but combine all three together and oh my!

The shameless pudding lured me from the bakery window…"Eat Me" it whispered.

You know how it is.



I succumbed. Gleefully. Sinfully. Savouring every morsel.

And now I’m hooked.

Just like you Brits hooked me on HobNobs.

Whilst doing a little research on the pudding, I discovered that sticky toffee pudding has been in existence less than 40 years.

Apparently, it was first created in the 1970s by the late restaurateur Francis Coulson, at the Sharrow Bay Hotel in Cumbria, England.

However, chef Simon Hopkinson claims here that the recipe may have existed previously in Lancashire AND, wait for it… it’s origins may have been in CANADA!

Controversy aside, I must recreate the recipe. Because at $5 Canadian (that’s 2.6 British Pounds or 4.2 US Dollars) I refuse to shell out that kind of money each time I get a craving.

No, don’t tell me to buy the tinned stuff…



Send me your best recipe.

I found this recipe on the BBC website but with so many options, I don’t know if it’s the one I should try.





Is STP best on its own or served with whipped cream, clotted cream or ice cream?

Is it best served hot or room temperature?

And which beverage is the perfect accompaniment?

And finally…

Tell me your own sticky toffee pudding memories.

Hurry bitches, I have needs!

Blogging Roundup

A peek at ‘the week that was’ with a handful of Infomaniac’s readers.



If you think I’m doing a Blogging Roundup after being away for half the week, you have another thing coming to you.

Instead, you’ll write the Roundup.

Yes, you will tell Mistress MJ and all the other bitches the highlights of what you posted over the past week.

Even if, for some of you, the highlights were more like lowlights.

Leave your summary in the comments box at the sound of the tone.

I’ll have one of the houseboys make sure I take your call in the order it was received.


Can I bum a fag?

Lurid Digs

Back in June, Infomaniac showed you some common decorating mistakes that folk make when posing nude for photographs.

For example, a little leopard print goes a long way…




Imagine our glee to discover an entire website dedicated to “horrifying gay amateur interiors” such as this…





And this…




“These Feng Shui-challenged souls have proven over and over again that male homosexuals can be just as color uncoordinated, sloppy and nastee as their straight bretheren.”

Visit Lurid Digs for more catastrophic décor.


Note: Infomaniac wishes to thank Eroswings who, in Mistress MJ’s absence, stepped into her stilettos to assist with the comments in our last post.

Perv of the Day

Welcome to another edition of Perv of the Day.

Infomaniac will, from time to time, seek out the perviest perverts and parade them pantless in front of you, the judge and jury.



THE PERV: An unnamed naked vicar, in his 50s.

THE PLACE: Yorkshire, England.

THE PERVERSION: The vicar underwent surgery to have a potato removed from his arse.

The clergyman insisted he had not been playing a sex game.

Nurse Trudi Watson of Sheffield Northern General Hospital said: “He explained to me, quite sincerely, he had been hanging curtains naked in the kitchen when he fell backwards on to the kitchen table and on to a potato."




For more examples of foreign bodies that have “accidentally” been inserted up arseholes, please refer to Infomaniac’s “Shove It Up Yer Arse” post.

Drunk of the Day

Welcome to another installment of Drunk of the Day.

Here we shall examine the wacky hijinks that folk get up to under the influence of alcohol.



Before we get started, let it be known that Mistress MJ secretly longs to drive a Zamboni but she is most likely to go off the boards like this woman…

THE DRUNK: Unnamed female Zamboni driver, age 34.

THE DISTRICT: Kingsville, Ontario, Canada. (approximately 35 kilometres southwest of Windsor, Ontario.)

THE DEED: The woman was charged with impaired driving after she was seen operating a Zamboni erratically at an arena, hitting the boards and falling asleep, slumped over the wheel.

A number of citizens told police, "I think the Zamboni driver is drunk."

The police sergeant observed the driver operating the machine in an erratic manner and missing large portions of the ice surface.

Police reported that she was found to have a flask of vodka in her front pants pocket.

THE DENOUEMENT: The woman is scheduled to appear in court in December on charges of impaired driving and having a blood alcohol level over 80 milligrams.




And in other Zamboni-related news, Republican vice-presidential candidate and hockey mom Sarah Palin claims that she “always wanted a son named Zamboni.”

Blogging Roundup (cuntinued)

NEW CUNT OF THE WEEK



MEET GINRO!




Englishman Ginro first appeared on Infomaniac in September of this year; another innocent bystander lured in by this Filthy Friday posting.

Although secretly I think he’d been enjoying the Cake Farts video prior to that.

You may remember the day that Ginro contributed to our Blogging Tips and Tricks posting by writing upside down and backwards in the comments section.



Ginro (left) in the garden with Charlie Dimmock and Alan Titchmarsh...if I knew how to post this gif properly, Charlie Dimmock's tits would be swinging back and forth, alternately slapping Ginro and Alan TITchmarsh as they swung


UPDATE: That isn’t Ginro in the pic. If anyone knows who the bloke on the left is, please contact Ginro or Infomaniac.

UPDATE: Ginro informs us that the bloke on the left is Tommy Walsh from Ground Force.



Anyway, I’ll shut up and let Ginro take it from here.

From here on down, Ginro tells his tale. Enjoy…


Who am I?

I am a man that blogs. But would that be more along the lines of telling you what I am rather than who I am? Yes I guess so. I found this which was quite interesting, for several minutes: Who am I? I am a boy. I tried to put my age but it wouldn't let me go past nine years old. Well that figures, lol. Give me the hairstyle of your choice. Hair colour? Didn't have silver (my hair turned that colour in my late twenties when I got married) as an option so I had to go for blonde. I have a silly/bunny face. My pyjamas are, well I don't wear anything as a rule so I went with blue. And this is me. Fun for all of us.

Alternatively...

I was born some time ago.
My earliest memory is from when I was about 2 or 3 years old. I was in the back seat of a car, and the car was black.
When I was 5 I broke my arm.
However, we didn't know this until the doctor had a look at it the next day as the nurse that lived next door had told my Mum that it was just a sprain.
I still have the cast. Don't know why I kept it.
When I was 8 the girl across the road used to chase me everywhere trying to kiss me. Naturally, at that age I was repulsed.
When we met again, about fifteen years later, my eyes popped out as she was a babe. Unfortunately she was also married and then emigrated to Canada.
When I was 10 we went to live in Ceylon.
I had lots of adventures.
When I was 14 we returned.
I was 14 when I got my first offer of *hem hem* relations.
She was the same age as me, and in my class, but looked the spitting image of Lynsey De Paul.
As she looked back then that is, not as she is now.


Lynsey de Paul


We moved again when I was 15.
We moved again when I was 16.
I hated school so used to bunk off and stay at home reading my Dad's encyclopedias.
When I was 19 I got a job as a croupier.
When I was 21 I joined the army.
When I was 24 I went back to croupiering.
When I was 25 I went abroad and worked in illegal gambling dens.
It wasn't a lot of fun sometimes.
The police chased us a lot.
So did other people.
But again, I had lots of adventures.
When I came back I moved.
I worked in a casino.
I met my wife there.
She was watching me deal a game and leaning over the table, she said in a very loud voice, "I want to have your babies".
The customers just ignored her and carried on gambling.
I went into a little bit of shock and asked her if we could discuss this later.
Two years later we were married with a baby daughter.
I discovered I love children and want more.
Over the next few years things happened.
Some pleasant.
Some very sad.
Some completely loopy.
My wife ran off with someone else.
It's a long story.
I raised my daughter.
I became a qualified PTI.
I went to college.
I went to Uni...
...several times.
Some things happened.
Some pleasant.
Some very sad.
Some completely loopy.
And here we are today.

Where am I from?

From a country far far away, in a land that time forgot. Actually when you want to know where I am from what do you mean? Where was I born? Where did I spend my childhood? Where did I go to school? Where have I spent most of my life? I will simply say, I was born in England and am an Englishman through and through.

My interests:

Well I love kittens and puppies, and I want to spread peace and love all around the world and if I win the Miss World competition I shall use the prize money to buy lots of balloons and spread happiness (*snort* yeh right as if l believe that garbage. I win the prize money and I'm off on a world cruise with a woman wearing kinky boots on each arm. Not wearing the boots on their arms I mean, but the women arm in arm with me).

One of my heroes is King Harold II.
I exercise a lot.
I am a martial artist and have been for over twenty years.
But I only train alone nowadays, as I'm tired of fighting full-contact.
It hurts, and I've done my time.
I am a bibliophile.
I smoke.
By that I mean roll-ups in liquorice paper.
