Trump and his cronies are back at it again right now.
What happened to you America 🤷😢

Having something for tea that I can’t remember cooking before. Fresh mackerel. If I realised how many bones were in it I probably wouldn’t have bothered. Luckily I have good fish bone tweezers 😃 Lots of buttery horseradish and dill mash too 😋

Just had a lovely woman in our shop in Donegal, searching for her lost twin sister. Appreciate it if my Irish followers would retweet this. Thank you.

Following her speech on incredibly difficult financial matters for the entire country’s finances and future, there were many good and relevant questions asked by the press. Then it’s @ChrisMasonBBC’s turn and he asks “why she got her house rental license wrong 🙄 @mrjamesob.bsky.social

Horrible stormy night in Donegal (for a change 🙄) so I’ve brightened our evening with stuffed peppers (mushroom, Parmesan, fresh dill and chorizo rice) with lemon pepper chicken thighs and roast veg and a bit of crunchy salad 😋

Mrs R has started a new job, so I had some time on my hands today to make her a nice tea. I genuinely had no idea what I was going to make until I boiled some potatoes. It’s Spanish pork chops with broad beans and a chorizo, black olive, garlic and red onion mash. She liked it 😃

The power to remove the Speaker lies with the House itself. Any member can file a motion to vacate the chair — it only takes one signature. If the Speaker answers to Trump, not America, then someone in that chamber needs to step up and call the vote.

Aubergines are 49c each at Lidl, so I thought I’d have a go at my first ever moussaka! It was OK, nutmeg, cinnamon, oregano flavours. But, I could have made it a lot nicer. Sadly, after a week in Malaga, we’re on yet ANOTHER 🙄 diet, so it was completely oil and cheese free 😇

7 years ago today we got married in Gibraltar. We got a bus to Malaga for week long honeymoon. Back in Malaga today, where we’ve just had a gorgeous anniversary meal.
We lived on a narrowboat for 2 years and then emigrated to Ireland. It’s been quite an adventure so far 🥰

I know you hate Antifa dad, but I learned in school today that Antifa means “Anti Fascist” so Antifa are actually against Fascism. Antifa are Anti- Fascists.
So, if you’re against anti fascists, doesn’t that make you a fascist? Is mom a fascist too? Shall I be a fascist?

OMG, A food stall has just opened on the beach at Dover!
It’s run by RNLI staff, and the food is completely free to anyone that arrives in a dingy in case they’re a bit “peck”ish after the crossing 😱

Can someone put me in touch with the lads who kept
rearranging the Fawlty Towers sign? They're badly needed here in my village.
(NB X wouldn’t let me post this, even when I deleted the “flowery” picture and tried again 🤷).

Tonight I’ve made us this Risotto. (Don’t worry @mrjamesob.bsky.social I was very careful 😉).
Chicken with thyme and porcini mushrooms, and a drizzle of truffle oil. I’ve had the dried porcinis soaking in a mixture of wine and water all day to make the fantastic stock 😋

🥹 This Rex. He’s from the farm half a mile away. He comes up to see us almost every day. We gave him a good love up this morning and he left. 5 minutes later he’d been home and brought back a toy for us to throw for him. Is that the cutest thing ever? 🥰

Lean turkey breast mince to Lebanese spiced skewer kebabs in a few minutes 😋 They’re made with fresh dill, coriander and mint, plus some Lebanese spices, garlic and black pepper. Two meal worth there for €1.50
