Vegetarians! Vegans! Anyone who enjoys cooking! Here's a thread of recipes for the veggie / vegan dishes I cook regularly and which have helped me massively cut down on the amount of meat I eat these days. First, a cheap, easy., quick dal which *everyone* should be able to cook:
Cheap, Easy, Quick Dal
This is my basic recipe for dal – it’s the one I cook when I need a fresh pot of dal quickly. Ingredients: 300g split red lentils 900 ml water 1 medium / large white onion diced 6 ̵…

Made a new friend. She’s emerged so early that there are very few flowers to feed on and she was exhausted. I brought her home, she’s lapped up some sugar water and I’m hoping she will rest and then start flying so I can release her. #bees #SaveTheBees #nature #wildlife #nature

I have very little energy right now because I’m still recovering from a flare up so I don’t have anything new to show you. I am sketching new ideas but nothing to report as yet. For now here’s Sherloctopus, the octopus who started it all. He was actually drawn by my husband & burned by me.

I have the other wooden clog in the pair but I’m reluctant to do anything with it until this one finds a new home. Perhaps wooden pyrographed clogs are a bit niche 🤣

“Telling the Bees” wooden clog.
Hand burned onto the wood and colours hand painted. There is a small hole through the top on one side.
You can easily get size 9s in there, though I’d keep it as a show piece rather than a fashion statement 🤣
34cm - 11.5cm - 12.5cm
£56 inc Uk p&p

Apologies for being so quiet but I’ve been quite poorly, nothing new there! The lighting is rubbish but here’s progress on the tentacle tray. 🐙

Good morning. My daughter is studying animation & they’ve been asked to write an essay on how Ai directly affects their business. As part of this she wants to add snippets from people in the arts who have been directly affected. Does anyone have any stories to share please?

Just a wee reminder that I’ve written some funny books (and co-written a few with awesome authors like @rhi.bsky.social and @ericamarks.bsky.social)!

A great retrospective on Mirror’s Edge. The best of times and the worst of times. Many thanks to Lewis for putting it together.
Our next big project is live! @lewisgordon.bsky.social spent the past few months tracking down nine people who worked on DICE's innovative 2008 parkour runner.
Mirror's Edge: An oral history
17 years on from its release, DICE's first-person parkour thriller is a cult classic. We spoke to nine people who worked on it about how the revelatory game came to be.

I’m after a little advice from anyone familiar with being a tourist in South Korea. My daughter has a college trip next month and I’m unsure about money. She’ll have local cash currency but will also need a card. Apparently Wowpass is the best but I’m unsure how it works. So grateful for any help!
