Haven't been posting lots of pics bc most of the time we just eat v simply. Case in point last night: fish (butter, lemon, capers), potato & crunchy stir fried broccolini with hint of garlic.

But as Michelle Obama says, "Most of life is just ordinary."

Worst ever photos for some of my favourite dishes ever
1: prawns & lobster tails on the BBQ at home
2. beef carpaccio at a "Vietnamese inspired" restaurant with lemongrass, lime & a sauce made of magic. This gets double points bc I didn't think I could ever ADORE beef carpaccio

Lennon had a complicated relationship with food. That's... putting it mildly. However, he was a huge blood pudding fan. Incidentally, I quite like it too!

John Lennon's ideal breakfast spread included a number of classic ingredients, but it also featured a divisive type of sausage that you either love or hate.

Versatile cheap fast delicious. Veggie main, side dish, or nestle your fave protein on top. Make spicy or herby, add frozen veg, make brothier, add toppings, serve on grains or toast. Possibilities are endless!!! As shown about $5 for 2 dinner portions and a lunch.

Victorian great John Ruskin (born #onthisday 8 Feb 1819) was a man of many special talents – he was a writer, artist (of the watercolour 'Chestnut Leaves' pictured below), art critic, amateur geologist, teacher, social critic and philosopher. And when it came to food, he had this to say: #foodsky 🍜

(Trying to remember where this happened in literature: was it Alice in Wonderland?)

Bread today, my cycle seems to be every 10 days. It’s not sourdough but I make a poolish overnight, next day is dough making, stretch and fold, ferment about 4 hours, pre shape 1 hr, shape then leave it overnight in fridge, bake….

'A Roman Feast' by Italian artist Roberto Bompiani (born #onthisday 10 Feb 1821) reflects the sort of luxurious repasts held by wealthy hosts at the height of ancient Roman prosperity. It also provides the inspiration for a #foodinart poem by @stewedpearsdotcom.bsky.social (see comments) #foodsky 🍜

"Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake ...

...For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble."

"Oh, the blue blue bloom
On the velvet cheek
Of the little pansy’s face
That hides away so still and cool
In some soft garden place!
The tiger lily’s orange fires,
The red lights from the rose
Aren’t like the gloom on that blue cheek
Of the softest flower that grows!"
-Effie Lee Newsome, Pansy

Pot roast chicken nearly full roasted (recipe in alt-text). Improvised tarts served warm with an expert chef's quenelle of ice cream on top (you'll have to trust me on the quenelle 😉🤥).

I get this👇 is BluePilot selling its product but interesting prediction of 75 million #Bluesky users by end 2026, even tho "platforms struggle with this transition from growth to retention."
I hope for more big name adoption, & curated hashtags to foster more communities outside politics. Thoughts?
