Like an open hand. It will have gone already.

This Neapolitan dish came about during the 1950s when some people arrived unexpectedly at dinner time. Having nothing prepared, the cook was told to throw together whatever was available.

 

Apart from the parsley and garlic, you can add oregano, basil, or not, as you prefer.

 

Some people chop the pepper; Gennaro used it whole so that it can be removed later. Stab it a few times to release more flavor. Press with the back of the spoon once in the pan for intensity, or not.

 

There's no cheese!

Lancashire Police horses visit Lancaster as part of the summer action plan against anti social activity.

Roses in full bloom around our neighborhood. They smell amazing. Straight out the camera from the 13ultra.

The amazing original floor tiles in the hospice cafe at Ulverston.

Blue geraniums.

 

Do you get a sense of peace from flowers?

I looked up to see the lovely clear sky, and noticed this mast, bedecked with folded and directional dipoles, microwave dish, etc and wondered why I had zero phone signal.

My singing bowl is tuned to F# *, which makes it perfect for anahata meditation (the heart chakra) where love, empathy, compassion, and joy are centered.

 

*F# resonates with the thymus gland chakra, located just above the heart center.

This afternoon's collection. There's no doubt this place is damp! Stone walls absorb nothing at all!

Here's a slice of pie, with a dollop of Greek yogurt.

I pre-cooked the apples, orange peel, and spices in the pressure cooker for 15 minutes - I'm happy with the mushy finish. It was easy to spoon into the pie case and push around in order not to leave any gaps.

I added a single layer of sultanas to the top of the apples before putting on the lid - the plan was to avoid the lid becoming soggy from sitting on top of the apples. It seemed to work. A few cuts in the lid with a paring knife allowed the steam to escape.

Having de stalked and simmered for 30 minutes to neutralize the natural cyanide in the berries, i added lemon and sugar to make this luscious syrup. It has health benefits but probably not when mixed with vodka!

"Rediffusion" refers to a prominent British company that distributed radio and TV signals via wired networks, known for its pioneering television advertising and school broadcasting. The company also founded the first ITV franchisee, Associated-Rediffusion, and later expanded into various electronic and manufacturing industries before being broken up and sold in the 1980s.

I have no idea what is under this manhole cover today; perhaps it's where all the re-runs come from.

It's been such a blessed day.

  

Out of use since 1973, you can see where the line ends just beyond the bridge. Now the space is used for the overhead cable pylons. It's a strangely interesting space.

 

Railway companies own lots of land but it's often hard to use.

George Smith is an English floral designer who carries on from where Constance Spry left off.

 

There's so much to do today and I don't know where to start. So, for now, I will look at my kitchen flowers and drink coffee.

Why was I not made aware of this simple but delicious meal before?

 

Smash aan avo and add a bit of cayenne pepper and lemon juice.

Cook the bacon and slice it up.

Make toast.

Pile it up. Easy.

 

Add a smear of Vegemite to the toast of you have it. Umami niceness.

 

The tomatoes are the last of the ones I preserved the other day. It's now my go-to method.

Are functioning phone boxes a thing of the past?

Remove a few litres of the mix, blitz in place, then add back the whole veg for texture.

My friend made this and gave it me for Christmas. Ho pianto.

Taking out a third and retaining it to add back, blitz in place with an immersion blender. I like to use this in preference to a regular blender - the heat can stay on, meaning cooking contiues, while breaking the mix down into something that's easy to eat (especially for older people with fewer teeth).

A bottle of rough red wine would have set the soup off. Not allowed so I used vinegar and Sriracha instead.

Waste not, want not.

Decant into jars. Cool in a water bath and refrigerate.

 

I got four of these 250 ml jars from one batch. That'll do.

 

Give away to your neighbors!

At low tide I counted 17 trundlers lying on the river bank, as well as assorted bicycles, a wheelchair, and goodness knows what else.

Staring straight up at the elevator banks in a glass hotel.

Seagulls greedily peck into garbage bags when left outside for collection. These over bags prevent that and the ensuing mess.

Brits have no idea what a fadge is and I have no idea what these bags are called here. There's a nice German compound word, of course. I have a wheelie bin, fortunately.

An orrery is a mechanical device that demonstrates the relative positions of planets, and how their orbits work. The workmanship is as complex as it is breathtaking.

 

This one was by John Fulton, who left school at 13 to become a cobbler. His story is fascinating and inspiring. I encourage you to follow the wiki link below.

Sometimes you stumble across something outstanding and unexpected. Today it was this haddock and chips. It's nice to have someone else do the cooking for a change.

To drink it had to be dandelion and burdock. It goes well with fried food.

I'll treat myself to another trip next month, perhaps.

Chilled raspberry lemonade, garnished with mint, over ice.

Delicious. Consumed 😁

The BT tower, originally the Post Office Tower was a state secret once. It was not allowed to be marked on maps.

There used to be a nice rotating restaurant near the top. I left my camera on the inner ledge at lunch and was aghast to find it missing at dessert. My nice waiter smiled and retrieved it quickly. I was clearly not the first idiot he'd dealt with!

Security concerns have closed the tower to visitors now.

A Saint George's cross has been daubed onto a memorial. The first I've noticed in the City of Sanctuary. I despise the way in which this symbol has been weaponized recently. Flags have always stirred deep feelings and baser emotions.

On the way to fisherman's square stands this interesting house. I don't know its history but will find out.

Real Bread Week is approaching. I've been making my own for about a year now. This Cubano white is my favorite so far by a country mile. Not the prettiest but it suits my needs and is easy to make.

This day last year a friend from Hong Kong served me with this delicious mint tea.

 

Where the is, I hope he's doing well.

Detail from Decimus Burton's terrace at Fleetwood.

Cycling through a shady wood I came across a great bank of blue bells. The ground is damp and smelled of petrichor, as it should.

Bluebells are always so joyful I think.

My thermometer read 24 °c today. I haven't seen this arrangement of floats for months. At last.. 😁
