Butter Cream

Tags: Yu Lee

Yu Lee is going to cook something, and the recipe asks for butter cream. Unfortunately we don't have any, so I do a quick Google search and find out that instead of using butter cream, you can make something very similar by mixing butter and mild cheddar.

I go into the kitchen and melt some butter, then I cut some mild cheddar into cubes and mix it into the butter. For some reason the mixture goes a light brown colour and solidifies, and doesn't look like butter cream at all.

Yu Lee gets frustrated, and we decide to go out instead and head into town.

We arrive in Cambridge city centre and I'm carrying a small baking tray with the 'butter cream' that I've made. We walk around a bit looking for a restaurant, and then Yu Lee suggests that we head out of the city centre and explore some new places that we've never been to before.

We walk past a restaurant with a man standing outside (I think he worked there and was trying to get customers to come in) so I approach him and say "Would you like some butter cream?" The man reaches out and breaks off half of the mixture in my baking tray and puts it on the stone windowsill of the restaurant. Then he picks it up and it has dirt on it and starts to brush it off. For some reason this makes Yu Lee angry and she asks me why he's making such a big deal of brushing off the dirt.

We carry on walking, and end up in a new part of town which I've never seen before. We walk down a little side alley which leads down hill, and at the bottom is a hotel which is in a very old building. I think I see somewhere that we can cut through onto the next street, but the gap between the buildings is actually only a couple of centimetres wide.

I notice the bins outside the hotel, and decide it is time to throw my 'butter cream' away. Before I do it I break a piece off and try it, and it tastes like a rich, half cooked pastry. I think I must have put too much flour in it, and then dump it in the bin.

Yu Lee goes inside the hotel and I follow, and when I get inside I see her disappear upstairs. I get to the top of the stairs and can't see where she's gone, but then I notice the toilets are there and think that she must have gone into the toilets.

While I wait for her I look around. The building is very old, and is the kind of building where all of the floors are angled and everything is wonky. At the top of the stairs there is a round table with four chairs under a low, slanted roof with a window, and to the left is a landing with doors to the toilets and some of the rooms. I remember thinking that this must have been built as a very nice house, but now it is a hotel. I wondered how the floors could have sloped so much without the building just falling to pieces.

Yu Lee comes out of the toilets and we head outside and continue walking. We come to a park and walk through it, and two homeless people approach Yu Lee. One of them starts asking her for money, and while she is distracted, the other one puts his hand on the small of her back and starts walking, pushing her with him towards some bushes.

Yu Lee is starting to look scared and I'm trying to figure out what's going on. I quicken my pace to try and keep up with the guy that's marching her away. "What are you doing?" I ask him.

"Fixing her," he replies.

"You'll have to fix me first!" I say to him as I start to get an adrenaline rush.

This is the last thing that happens before I wake up with my heart pounding.

Toast

Tags: Yu Lee

I dreamt that I was in a communal kitchen at lunch time, and I wanted to make some toast. I looked in the bag of bread but Yu Lee had finished the rest of the loaf apart from one of the end pieces.

When I pulled the end piece out of the bag it was extremely thick and doughy. I tried to cut it into two thinner slices and put it in the toaster to make some toast, but for some reason Yu Lee was having a go at me, saying that I was being selfish holding everyone up at lunch time.

Wood Grilled Burgers

Tags: Yu Lee

Me and Yu Lee are in a really big park somewhere, having a barbecue. We've cooked most of the food we'd brought with us and all we have left are two beef burgers, and I say to her that I really wanted to try cooking burgers over a wood fire, so Yu Lee says we should go and find a wood fire!

I look on a map of the park, and there is a camp fire symbol on it, so we head off looking for it. After quite a long walk we get close to the spot where the fire is supposed to be and I say "It should be just up ahead".

As we approach the spot, I can hear people, and then I catch sight of them in the exact spot on the map where the camp fire symbol is. There is a large circular structure, like a grey metal frame on legs, that comes up to about waist height, and there are about six to eight people inside it. As we get closer I realise that it is a giant barbecue with all of the grills going round in a circle, with the people cooking the food in the middle.

I approach one of the people cooking the food, and I ask them if he can cook our burgers for us, because he is cooking over wood and we want to taste wood-cooked burgers, and he says ok, so we put our burgers on the grill. A few moments later everyone moves the grill grates around (with the food on them), so that the grill with our burger moves onto the next person in the circle. I realise that the different people have different jobs, and we'd given ours to the guy who starts things off, and the next person is the one who will finish the cooking.

I step around to watch our burgers being cooked, and tell the man that we made the burgers ourselves out of proper steak, and that we would like them cooked medium rare. The man pulls out a large metal wok and puts it on the grill, and transfers our burgers to it to finish them off. "So much for cooking them over the open fire," I think to myself, but then I think "at least he started them over the wood."

After a couple of minutes the burgers are done and the man hands them to us. He cuts my one in half and shows it to me, saying that the meat is not cooked all of the way through, like I'd asked for it. I look at the burger and it is black all of the way through, but it seems to have the texture of raw meat.

This is the last thing I remember.

Steam-Toasted Steak and Cheese Sandwich

Tags: Bob

I'm not 100% sure how the situation came about, but me and my brother are together, and we have some steak that we need to cook. I tell him the best thing to do with this is to make it into a steak and cheese sandwich.

The first part of the procedure is to get a saucepan, fill it up with water, and balance two chopsticks across the top of it in a cross. Then you put a steak and cheese sandwich on top of it. I'm not sure if the sandwich was already toasted, or if it toasted over the steaming pan, but by the end of the dream mine is definitely toasted!

My sandwich is cooking away nicely, but Bob is having some trouble with his, in fact he can't even seem to get his ring on the stove to light properly. I go over and help him, and he keeps trying to light the stove, but either only one side will light, or the flames are really weird, or a different ring on the stove ends up getting lit instead.

I keep going back and forth between my pan and his, and my sandwich is pretty much done now. "Just another minute," I think.

Bob is still having trouble, but now his hair is catching fire, so I go over and try to put it out, but every time I put it out another bit of his hair catches on fire. He has longish, dyed blond hair (like when he died his hair when we were kids) and it now has a couple of black singed patches in it.

I get his hair to go out and go back over to my pan, and my sandwich has fallen off of the chopsticks and into the water whilst I was distracted! My sandwich was absolutely perfect before, but now it is ruined!

Black Pudding

Tags: Yu Lee

I dreamt that me an Yu Lee went to a restaurant. We were looking at the menu, and the only main course they seemed to have was a black pudding dish.

When the waitress came to take our order, Yu Lee asked if they did white pudding and the lady said that she could have one slice of black pudding and once slice of white pudding if she wanted.

After we ordered our mains we each ordered a side dish of some kind of potatoes and the waitress seemed to think it would be too much, so in the end we ordered one side dish between us.

This dream is hidden. Some dreams are personal. Some dreams are not suitable for everyone to read. And sometimes the author just doesn't want his mum to read them!

Radioactive

Tags: Yu Lee

Me and Yu Lee are living in what appears to be a rented house. In the corner of the front room is a small coffee table with some equipment on it: it looks like a wooden box and some kind of computer screen. It's in two pieces and has been there since we moved in, and we have been instructed not to touch it. The open part of the wooden box and the screen are both facing the wall.

It's starting to annoy us having this piece of junk in the corner of the room, so in the end I decide it's time to move it. I turn it around an look at it, and somehow I realise that this is the control panel from a nuclear reactor, or from an atomic bomb, and I realise that it's probably radioactive.

I search for some information about it on the internet, but my search results are inconclusive, so I download a Geiger Counter app onto my phone to try to test it for radioactivity. The app seems to work and gives a reading of 450 radions (whatever that means). I ask Yu Lee if that is a lot of radiation and she says not to worry about it, but I am convinced that I am going to get cancer from coming into contact with it!

Camera Shoe

Tags: Yu Lee Zen

I only remember this dream vaguely, but I was with Yu Lee and Zen and we were away somewhere. For some reason I wanted to buy a watch with a built in video camera, but when we went out to buy one I couldn't find any that I liked. Then I saw some shoes with a built in video camera, so I thought I'd buy those instead.

The first couple of pairs that I looked at had a camera raised up on the top, but mostly the camera was really big and they seemed to be poor quality. Then I found some really weird shoes, where the right shoe had a camera underneath the sole of the shoe. This meant that when you walked along, you had a camera underneath the ball of your right foot, and had to walk with you toes raised up.

We talked about it for a while, and in the end I decided to buy this pair of shoes. I paid for them and wore them out of the shop.

On the way back there was a large crowd of people as far as the eye could see, walking slowly in the same direction as us and completely filling the pavement and spilling off of it into the road. We walked on the road next to them and were walking faster than them.

I remember finding it hard to walk in my weird shoes, but for some reason I wanted to record this on video.

The last thing I remember is walking next to a black man with short curly hair. We were walking at the same speed, and I didn't notice him at first, but then he held my hand and said 'hello'. I immediately took off and caught up with the rest of the group. Then I woke up to Yu Lee kissing me on the cheek.

Roll-up

I dreamt that I was with a group of people, hanging around outside somewhere. They wanted me to roll up a joint for them so I started to do it.

I stuck 3 Rizlas together: a little one, then a big one, then another little one. In the first one I put the roach and crumbled a cigarette. In the little one at the end I put in some Cutter's Choice rolling tobacco that someone had. Then I asked the others where the weed was that they wanted me to put in it, and they said they didn't have any. I was a bit annoyed, but someone gave me some Golden Virginia rolling tobacco and I put that in it instead, so that in the end I just had a giant roll-up cigarette with different types of tobacco.

I lit the cigarette and took a puff on it, and then I realised that I don't smoke and that I didn't want any more so I put it in the ash tray.

Prison Exercise Yard

Tags: Zen

I dreamt that I was in prison with Yu Lee's little brother, Zen.

It was time to go to the exercise yard for some kind of physical training, but when we got there Zen said that he'd forgotten his bag and left the yard to get it. As soon as he walked out the guy doing the training approached him and started having a go at him, telling him he couldn't return to his cell to get his stuff.

When I noticed what was going on I went to defend him and started having a go at the trainer. He turned round and started explaining to me how he couldn't just let prisoners do whatever they wanted and go anywhere as they are criminals and they might commit a crime. I didn't want to agree with him but he explained it so calmly and seemed very reasonable. I remember thinking that he seemed like a kind man.

This is all I remember.
