100% some of the photos are not their own. Who knows what percentage of the content is AI written/outlined? SEO demands repetitiveness too. I don't know if you saw this thread of mine? They don't even need to steal the photos. Free tools like Canva deliver pics in seconds bsky.app/profile/stew...

Well well well. Thought I'd play with AI.
At a quick first glance, can you tell which one is AI & which is my photo??
The description I gave AI is in alt-text. I used Canva. I cld easily have photoshopped further.
How many food writers write WITHOUT THE FOOD, you think?

Ha! Cool! I see it's an hour long, so will save to watch later. Cheers! 😀

😂🤣😂 They're such busy little bees! I don't know what scheduling or cross-posting tools they're using, but can't possibly be extending their organic reach too successfully. Or maybe it does, and I'm the fool 🤷‍♀️

For all of you who have been asking about my memoir, I have included the first ten pages on my website as a bonus. The Masthead page has the link. There's great material and lots of fun discoveries on other pages, plus a way to add your byline to the blend.

You mom's white sauce version reminds me of this.

Blonde Bolognese - Stewed Pears . com

Blonde bolognese is a perfect alternative to tomato-based sauces, without being creamy. It's a dish I'd have bubbling away if friends are

🤔 Accounts that post 6-8 times a day, often opening with "just finished making this" (yeah sure you're baking 24/7), with links to their blogs, who never repost or comment on anyone else's posts, or even reply to replies on their own posts ... sure I'm going to follow you back #advertising

What is bread? You likely don’t have to think for long, and whether you’re hungry for a slice of sourdough or craving some tortillas, what you imagine says a lot about where you’re from.

You know, when you fluff it, but come back for the win?
Supposed to be crispy sage with pasta tossed through the sage oil. Burnt the sage 😢. Tasted like ash. Came back with extra olive oil, butter, lemon juice, parmesan, chilli flakes & parsley. Broccoli was a bit over, but still light & fresh 😅 🍜

in a pan, oriecchiette tossed with broccoli, toasted pine nuts, bacon, chilli flakes. A wooden spoon and a serving spoon.

What's a quote or piece of wisdom that sustains you? Maybe we can make a little collection here that people can read through to find what they need.

If I remember right, she beat the boys too 😀 In terms of science fiction, she was right on the money for the times. I wonder what the monster for our times is? The whole hive mind thing in Stranger Things was pretty scary.
