Malt loaf…

Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood?

…reminds me of my childhood as soon as I smell and taste it…Sunday’s growing up in the UK across the 70/80’s were based around food (and the pub, for my Dad)…we started with English breakfast (bacon, eggs, tomatoes, fried toast …how have I survived to now 😅)….then a traditional Sunday roast at lunchtime, when my Sister and I would argue over who gets the remaining chicken leg, she is now vegetarian so no longer an issue…nom nom, still love a Sunday roast!…then we would finish early evening with what could be classed as a high tea (but not that posh)…left over meat used in little triangle sandwiches, Jamaican ginger cake (yesss 💝) and malt loaf covered in rich butter all presented on a stand by my Nan (Grandmother) …arh childhood Sundays were glorious as far as food was concerned 🥓🍳🍗🥔🥦🍰

        😀 i think i’d really like it just from what i see in youtube. id like to visit more towards the colder months if next year would allow. speaking of weather, i hope you and your family are staying cool there. we are also under a heat advisory here on the other side of the atlantic!

        We have just come out of a short heatwave here in Uk, we had 32 degrees where we live, it’s 10 degrees cooler today then we are going up to late 20’s again so it’s hot for us, Mike 🌞
        This country is not prepared for extreme weathers I hope you are keeping well and cool too? 🍦
