The Pipeline Bar

The Pipeline bar was fun. First when I got there yesterday after work it was crowded with wall to wall suits but I plonked my self and my tattoos on the bar not caring as my eyes were firmly fixed on the price which was ice cold Lonkero after a hard weeks work. And it did not disappoint and I relaxed on my bar stool in deeply satisfied state.

The sensible person that I am, I decided to eat before the guys got there and the more serious drinking would commence and ordered the Köttbullar - Swedish Meatballs Served with homemade potato mash, creamy gravy and traditional Lingonberry jam on the side. Nice!

All the bar staff is Swedish and one of the guys came to work straight from having his chest tattooed. The service was good and once the suits vanished the place came immediately more cosy. Met few more Finn's and all in all wasn't a bad night and my hangover is actually tolerable this morning. Good times!

Really good meatballs are a food wonder - I pulled a container of some sort of stew (I thought) from the freezer this morning. Was delighted to taste it was a pork meat ball recipe coz 1) I thought I'd eaten it all and 2) it is scrummy, plus 3) is enough left with the rice and briefly blanched beans for Monday lunch now I'm working again.

Happy to give you the scrummy, easy recipe - just contact me at mickleATclearDOTnetDOTnz.

Zebbycat would send huggles only he is back testing our bed out for snoozle/snore capabilities,

Will remain drooling over your Swedish meatballs while this weekend my dear sister is in Latvia (beside the frozen baltic sea).......... do keep warm and cosy, dear KB
