Coco on her 12th birthday (today) waiting patiently to be pampered #dogs

When Coco thinks she’s earned a treat and we don’t comply she likes to self-reward with toilet paper

Managed to protect some apples on our trees from the possums long enough for them to ripen. Made tarte tatin with some of them

This week’s #sourdough loaf #bread

If you look closely you’ll see Coco in her natural habitat #dogs

Naarm/Melbourne yesterday afternoon

And I have the t-shirt

Simon Schama unable to ‘find words adequate to the moral abyss from which such a response at such a time could possibly come.’ That about sums it up.

Homemade pizza for dinner tonight

Steak frites with béarnaise sauce and Sicilian salad for dinner (entrecôte charcoal grilled, thrice cooked frites)

My wife and I host the extended family for Christmas dinner the weekend before Christmas, and for many years have had dinner with our daughter on Christmas Eve so she can spend the day with her father’s family. So on Christmas Day we have a special seafood dinner for two 🦞🦪🥂

Freshly baked Lebanese bread to go with tonight’s hummus (for those interested it is an 80% hydration dough) #breadsky #bread
