It sort of worked. I forgot to add the baking powder and knocked most of the air out of the mix. But it sort of worked and tasted fine.
Reminds me of Yerevan in the fog. I've been helping to paint a room in grey. The under coat was dodgy and the surface so porous. Breaking for tea i spotted this. I rather like the effect. Too bad it will disappear as it dries.
I adore brutalist architecture.
Testing the zoom on my Pixel, here is Arnside Tower which sits below Arnside Knott. Built in the 15th century as a secure home to protect against raiders from Scotland. Now it stands in ruins after fires and neglect. It's Grade II listed and a scheduled monument.
An agapanthus seed head.
The Dutch East India Company imported this plant to the Netherlands in the 17th century.
They are pretty, but can be thugs in your herbaceous border - keep those rhizomes under control!
A poor pun - I just love the way that the Basque language is full of X, K, and Z ... and hardly ever pronounced the way I would expect. It's a real puzzle language.

And I also like this cloth, which is made from English wool.
At the Jetty Museum, just outside Windermere, can be seen Beatrix Potter's little row boat. It has a flat bottom, so that it can be used in the shallow waters of a tarn.
Stories say it was made from old floorboards. The boat sank in 1950, and was dredged up in 1976 and was restored.
OK, I wasn't going to get any more cookbooks - my shelves are full. However, I saw this, read some of it, and laughed. Some of the recipes are a bit questionable, but the expletive-laden text is so different from anything else in my collection that I had to have this. And it just made me laugh; it reminded me of someone I used to go out with.
It's all about cooking and eating vegetables, cooked by yourself, instead of buying takeouts. Well, cooking veg appeals; I can't remember the last time I took food out of a restaurant, and have never had it delivered.
Now it's time to remove the switch assembly (top) by undoing the 4 screws holding it in place. Then remove the base cap (held by 4 longer screws. The cables are all gathered together with a single cable tie - cut with scissors to make manipulation easier.
Gently tease the battery cables away from the circuit board - you can see where they were plugged in to the board.
Growing not far from home i gathered these lovely little purple gems while out walking. Apologies for dreadful focus.

Excellent lozenges made in Fleetwood. Originally in linctus form, the fisherman asked for something more easily carried on ship. Hence these were invented.
They are exported globally and especially popular in Japan.
The band by the same name is not related but they are too good to ignore!
This is why I walk everywhere now.
This ancient right of way has been in use since Roman times at least. The birds' singing encourages my ascent.
A pretty little Daisy on my walk yesterday. This is a 1.7X zoom from the main sensor on the X90 Pro.
Here's an ancient Italian recipe that i just made up. People seemed to like it and it was easy enough to make. It will be better left to cool and reheated tomorrow.
Today we remember the Blessed Claudio Granzotto, hence the name 😄
A random assortment of veggies makes an unexpectedly uplifting picture. Makes a nice soup, too.
onion
garlic
celery
mushrooms
tomatoes
persimmon
pomegranate
capsicum
Italian herb mix
chicken stock
blitz and finish with coconut milk
Even on a funny sort of day the sunset over Morecambe Bay can provide solace. 'Nacreous' comes to mind.
My favourite barista is moving on to new things and I'm just a little sad about that. But, as Heraclitus wrote, "Everything changes and nothing remains still."
Another batch of winter shots. steeping for 30 minutes before thorough blitzing. The star anise will be removed before that and dried to make Christmas decorations.
Giftaid is a scheme whereby what the charity shop sells things for is added to by the income tax people. It's a good plan. Also, I'm going to have a calm kitchen for thirty hours 😀
A good portion of green soup, full of fiber and nutrients, and not much fat. Cost 50p per serve to produce, including shop-bought baguettes.
The iron joggle is secured with lead. Other holes have been filled with lead to hold hooks for cooking implements. Today we would use a Rawlplug (patented in 1919) or similar plug.
In this case two Wongs made a right. Simple and delicious ham and cheese bun for lunch and a good cup of oolong kept me going for an afternoon of wandering about.
In Colorado there's an ancient, dried-up lake bed that contains hundreds of dinosaur footprints. I think an allosaururus stepped in my coffee.
These pretty cobbles were laid in front of a local grandee's house by French prisoners of war. The pattern is unique in this area. At least it provided a chance to be in the open air for a few days.
Ukraine has deep traditions in beekeeping and even today Ukraine is Europe's biggest producer of honey. Ukrainian beekeeper Petro Prokopovych invented the world's first movable-frame beehive and the queen excluder in the 19th century.
Despite large volumes, the honey remains pure and unadulterated with sugar syrup (which occurs in some other countries). Employing over 400 000 people across Ukraine. beekeeping is a major industry that supports farming, the economy and employment.
Ukrainian sunflower honey is like a jar of pure sunshine.
As a former beekeeper I recommend you buy some now!
