A reminder to ourselves to slow down, stop rushing around madly, take your time to just sit somewhere quiet and contemplate. #Alyzenmoonshadow #androidography
Cook the aromatics.
The food processor was missing from the kitchen unfortunately.
Red onion
Garlic
Rosemary
Celery
The River Lune is tidal, and the range is about 6m between low and high tides. It used to be deep enough for commercial vessels until the 1950s. It has been allowed to silt up considerably since then and there is no impetus to do any dredging now.
You can see how the mud and silt have collected around the bridge piers.
The door is elegant and set back a bit to increase the window display. You're already half way in so why not go inside? Subtle, intelligent design.
In a few weeks this will become a luscious blackberry. A great source of vitamins C And K, and a source of manganese. Boiled up, leaves stalk and all, it's a traditional treatment for stomach ulcers.
I like to bake them with apples, brown sugar and Roquefort or Stilton cheese.
Many of my Gypsy and Traveller friends will be packing up to leave the annual Gypsy Horse Fair at Appleby in Cumbria.
I narrowly avoided this fellow this morning as i headed off to work. Going at full chat in order to avoid the hungry magpies no doubt.
Discovered in Yichang and brought to Europe as an ornamental plant it has now been deemed an invasive species in many countries. It's a good food source for many butterflies which is a good thing given considerable loss of habitat due to agricultural changes. And pretty to see in town as it colonizes did used buildings. However the roots will force stones apart and cause structural damage and eventual failure. I cringe when i see buddleia on a high chimney and talk a wide berth.
The Music Room. Café run by Atkinson's, Lancaster's premier coffee dealer and roaster. There's a great vibe here and the baristas make a cracking coffee.
Apparently the meat and potato pie is a quintessentially northern meal, often served with gravy and pickled red cabbage. With the proliferation of foreign eateries and changing fashions, it's getting harder to find a decent pie.
This is my lunch at the Emmaus furniture store in Preston. It was all I needed for the day ahead.
Arrange the carrots in a single layer in the air fryer and cook for 20 minutes or so, until slightly caramelized.
From found pieces of glass on the river bank. I like how they have been worn and smoothed by the action of the water and surrounding gravel. My face has gone like that too.
A man sits in the chair getting his hair done and is having a conversation with his stylist. He's delighted. But curious. It's the conversation. Or is it the hair.
Meron is a specialty coffee roaster in Bucharest. This is a nice change from my usual Neapolitan miscella of arabica and robusta beans.
And I also like yellow 💛
Keeping cattle out but allowing people to pass through - it's a bit of a squeeze for some - is what this gap is all about. There is probably some technical name for this sort of gap; I have always called it a 'squeeze'.
'Ready, steady, cook' was a BBC gameshow where contestants would be given a shopping bag full of stuff, and told to go and cook something with the contents. I never saw it, but I can imagine it was entertaining. Somebody on the kitchen suggested that was how I worked.
Here's today's mise en place. But someone has already grabbed the onions and is chopping away behind me.
It's going to be another all-in soup; the asparagus and broccolini will be added in the last 10 minutes to soften but remain al dente, to add a bit of interest.
Just over 2 l yield from this mixture. It's thick and definitely a stew rather than soup. It could be frozen, or just stored in the fridge and used over the next few days.
The joy of open source software. When the system falls over you just rebuild it and there are 1000s of people to help you do it.
A hard to find WiFi driver was the culprit for the delay in getting things working.
My 12 year old Mac lives another day.
Autumn wardrobe sorted. I like grey and fuchsia.
The local hospice needs to raise millions of pounds every year. Yours does, too.
My first Advent calendar since I was little.
Each day has an text about the Christmas story and a little piece of chocolate. I'm actually getting excited about Christmas for a change.
From Youtube, I learned how to remove the top of the Wonderboom without trashing it - use a blunt kitchen knife to pry open the retaining clips, and lift off.
It takes me back to when I used to drive a CVR(T) [a little tank that was used in the recce/recon role, usually]- whenever that broke down, the first thing the 'spanner ops' asked for was that we removed the top armor.
