Do you eat couscous at the RC, Sister Lucy? How do you reheat it? 

It’s already cooked at home, then I eat it room temp. Same as rice salad. No need to heat it up.

It can be different things to different people,  and there are Devon Pasties as well as Cornish pasties, but to tell the difference: 

 

One easy way to detect the original Devon pasty from the Cornish is that the Devon pasty has a crimped top, and is oval shaped, whereas the Cornish pasty is semi-circular and crimped on the side, along the curved edge. The Cornish pasty is shaped like a 'D'. Ingredients in these pasties vary, but usually include potato, onion, beef, swede (Turnip in Cornwall speak). There is often a little seasoning of salt and pepper. They also have a chunky texture:

Cornish:  

 

They are both delicious and filling. Excellent when away at a convention or circuit assembly.

 

That looks very yummy. I guess it's like the British version of an empanada

I'm bringing a salad with broiled chicken breast, cucumber, and kalamata olives for me and a tomato caprese sandwich (tomato, fresh mozzarella, basil) for my daughter. And fruit and snacks to share.

I avoid anything with oil or grease, so I don't get anything on my suit.

I find putting large tissues on my lap, minimises potential hazards when eating at the convention. One problem as you get older is that you get clumsy, so need to be doubly careful.

Here where I live, it is common to make a pie with a crust that is blended in a blender. It is usually made with chicken, cheese, and ham. The sisters like to prepare it because it is quick and inexpensive. And I can assure you, it is delicious.

That does sound good! @Nathansantos what is the name in portuguese? I am allergic to gluten and I bet I can find a recipe online for a gluten-free version.
