There was a queue!

Front door to the former workshop of Gillow's, a renowned cabinet maker. If you like furniture it's worth looking up the story of Follow and later Waring & Gillow. They even furnished luxury liners and palaces.

Damp has caused my Brabantia canisters to go rusty. So off to the bin with them.
I've found this and one other in the thrift shop. Just the thing next time I head off on safari.
Happy pines border the raging river below.
Or maybe they are on a mountainside.
Or maybe you can tell me 👍
Checking on my snake plant, these pups look to me like a clutch of baby birds in the nest, demanding food.
Busy today so stopped for lunch at my favorite Scandi cafe for their excellent soup and a coffee. Just right 👍
ANZAC Biscuit
This is the product of this morning's experiment: ANZAC biscuits. They are bigger than I had expected, so will get an extra baking sheet and a) use smaller dollops of mixture and b) give them more space to spread!
But as for taste and texture, just as I had hoped. And haaaaard! Which is how they are meant to be.

Giles Gilbert Scott was the principle architect of Battersea Power Station. Much later Frank Gehry set out this transformation and reuse of this icon of South London.
This seen in 2019.
Gilbert Scott also designed the K6 telephone box (1935).
Instantly recognizable by the shape of the leaves. This tree is in full fruit, which tells me it is happy to be here.
Gelato fico e mascarpone.
This was to die for. An almost overwhelming burst of flavor of figs combined with the richness of mascarpone.
From Mio Gelato in Morecambe. They make everything of the premises from premium ingredients. Not since i was in Italy have i had such a good gelato.
Maybe. I'll find out at breakfast time.
Morrison's own strong white flour. Everything else as usual.
Emerging from the depths of a hollow, rotting tree. Beetles and bacteria turn this massive oak into a fine brown dust. Amazing and beautiful.
Now worn away, this was originally inscribed on this 'Plague Stone'. Lepers, and those infected by plague would come to this place to buy food, placing the coins in the hollow at the top which was filled with disinfecting vinegar.
The fella just out of shot asked me where the plaque was that told the history of the bridge, www.flickr.com/gp/199497344@N03/wSuGJHuR89,
so I showed him as I was walking that way, anyway.
A customer told me about her daughter making quiche in a case made from wraps, instead of baking one. This fed my curiosity, so I baked my first ever quiche, in an airfryer. Having scorched my 'emergency cake' the other day, I decided to wrap the whole thing in foil. Here you see it as it emerged from about 30 minutes baking.
Here's how:
Oil/grease a baking dish - mine's circular to fit the airfryer.
Line with a soft wrap - I used wholemeal. Try not to tear it, or snip the edges with scissors, if you prefer, to make it easier to hand
Now put it onto a sheet of foil that's big enough to loosely wrap the whole thing.
Fry bacon - I used two bits of back, cooked in the microwave, 3 mins, then allow to cool, and chop.
Chop an onion, and marinade in some oil for a few minutes. Now fry the onion in the microwave, 2 mins, then turn out onto kitchen roll and allow to cool.
(Why cool? If you put the ingredients hot into the batter, you will get scrambled eggs).
In a bowl:
Add an egg, about 150 g of grated cheese - I used Lancashire and Parmesan, about 100 to 120 ml milk (use full fat - you'll thank me).
Add 1/2 tspn (2.5 ml) ground nutmeg.
Beat together and introduce the crumbled/chopped bacon (which has had time to cool a bit), then the tomato (de-seeded to reduce liquid).
No need for salt - there's enough in the bacon and cheese.
Pour the batter into the prepared tray, and wrap with foil.
Lower the assembly into the basket on your baking tray.
In the airfryer:
Cook for 20 mins at 160 C (lower than you would in a normal oven, and it makes for a softer finish - we're not making roof tiles today.)
Now, open the foil wrapper to expose the (anaemic-looking) top, and return for up to 10 mins, to let the top brown.
Use a skewer to check it's all cooked - I like the middle to be a bit mou - it's a matter of taste, really.
Rest for a few minutes, and serve with a nice salad and a glass of chilled rose.
This recipe is enough for two servings. Enjoy =]
