Re: Facial Hair in Chit-Chat

I quite like beards on men but not the ZZ Top kinds - keep thinking about all the bits of food and grunge that must get caught in their beards - YUK!!!

Re: Newry in Chit-Chat

If you’re working in the centre - probably best option is the Canel Court Hotel. I’ve never been for a night out though!

Re: Cooking / Recipes in Chit-Chat

What about Chesnut Biscotti? I have a recipe - all US measures though :-)

1 1/2 C sugar
1 cube butter, softened
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
12 oz shelled chestnuts —
(1 lb fresh in the shell)
2 C flour, unbleached, all-purpose
2 oz dried blueberries (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 deg. F. Process the chestnuts in a food processor until fine and set aside. Mix first 6 ingredients well. Add baking powder, chestnuts and flour. Mix well. Stir in the dried blueberries (you can use any dried fruit - I use cranberries). Remove from bowl and form 2 balls. Flour a cutting board and shape into 2 loaves about 10” x 3” x 3/4” thick. Lift off onto a baking sheet. Bake 40 minutes. Remove and allow to cool 30 minutes more. Slice into 3/4” slices. Stand them on end on the baking sheet. (You may want to sprinkle them with a cinnamon/sugar combination.) Bake at 325 deg. F. for another 15 minutes. Turn the oven off and allow to cool in the oven.
