It was delish.

Ooh, I opt for English mustard (it's a good pairing with these ones). Damn, I think I might have just chosen.

I know, right? I don't know what I'm in the mood for.

I have an important decision to make...

Jumbo battered sausage or battered cod from the fish and chip van this evening?? 🤔

(it's been a fucking long day that's involved getting up 2 hours early so I can have a shower before they turned my gas off, for 90 fucking minutes 😑)

They’re all weird, I hope they help. ❤️

Please all be thankful that he’s not YOUR MP 😑

I don’t vote for him.

Emma Chittenden @emmachittenden.com · Sep 15

I did not vote for that sack of sh*t Danny Kruger, I am not happy he's my MP and I'm even LESS happy he's now a f*cking member of Reform.

not me, emailing my parish council, to complain about the village football club shrugging their shoulders about the opposing team parking all over the pavement around the football pitch when they play home games 👀

pretend I said four (I add the fourth and forgot to update the number), forgive me, I'm designing metadata to enable filtering for a client.

Failing that, now would be a seriously awesome time to implement faceting. A simple four structure facet of:
- Symptoms
- Conditions
- Medications
- Services
Would make it super easy for users to get to the content you want them to get to.

Emma Chittenden @emmachittenden.com · Sep 11

Thank you to whoever sorted out the indexing on NHS.uk - you know what would be awesome now? as I'm assuming that services, conditions, symptoms and medications are sitting in three separate root files, you could do federated search (because that sexy search engine I helped implement supports it)

It is delicious (it smells like expensive tea), and I’m defo considering it with porridge, but it was also good with Greek yogurt and vanilla gelato.

Emma Chittenden @emmachittenden.com · Sep 7

I have plum and apricot. The plum is spectacular. Can’t comment on the apricot as it’s still cooling

I’ve spent the last two Sundays making jam, and now I have maple syrup envy 😩

Ben Stiller smashing the shit out of Adam Scott in The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is unbelievably enjoyable. (I can’t stand Scott, he’s a talentless irritant).

Dough is my nemesis, but I remembered I've got a recipe from Morito that turned out OK ish. so I thought I'd give it a go using my Gozney (my cooker is shite). turned out *AMAZING* the long batons are Leek and Feta Gözleme, which are Ok but not as great as I thought they would be.

a pile of slightly singed Gözleme (Turkish calzone) are piled on a cooling rack, in the background a blue Le Creuset kettle rests on the closed cooker lid.

trays of cooling bread rolls (slightly singed they came out the pizza oven) sit ontop of a closed cooker. the blue of a kettle can be seen in the back right of the picture

Oh, I cook 99% the same thing, but I also own WAY too many cookbooks, so I’m trying to be a bit more adventurous. Guaranteed never to cook it again 😂

Emma Chittenden @emmachittenden.com · Aug 23

it's a nice recipe (never cooked it before), like a cross between paella and a risotto
