Have been batch cooking again, so here is a very tasty chicken stew, avoiding garlic, onions, spicy peppers & red meat as I need to remove all of that from my diet. This is the first time I've cooked with Hing/Asafoetida, which is meant to replace onion and garlic, and the smell and taste is AMAZING

This is the first time I've seen Mike Wozniak's act, and I've never seen anything like it. Very very clever random gibberish, incredibly funny, the type of humour which always catches you off-guard.

Only Murders In The Building series five: so much shark-jumping, bailing out at episode four (and I should have done at episode one...).

Have been batch cooking, and tried doing four meals using the "base and diverge" method...
Base: lentils stewed with onions and celery and vegetable stock. Mixed with roasted mixed root veg.
Variations:
Moroccan-style Tagine
Smokey Bean Chilli
Thai-style Coconut Curry
Cottage Pie filling.
Tired!

Things you miss when you switch to streaming music: the immediateness of each disc in your CD collection, including the ones you've long forgotten. I burned them all to MP3 decades ago, and now rediscovering the Average White Band back catalogue whilst batch cooking. Perfection.

Very nice #emergency alert on Smarty/Three network, Google Pixel 7a phone. Quite classy, in fact, I'm impressed. Am curious if it'll work over WiFi Calling....

Experimenting with making unleavened bread. This one was cooked on the stove-top, but the dough was too wet, didn't have salt, and was fried in too much oil. Tasted nice, though, nice thin crust skin, but doughy middle. Will tweak recipe.

Just what you need after hiking through some hilly woods: all trains home cancelled. Just endured one and a half hours on three different buses.... 🤢
