I read things, cook things, watch things and listen to things.
❤️history.
On a WW2 bender atm.
Trying to learn Korean.
Just random life :)
I feel if you are poorly enough your phone can’t recognise you it’s time to call in sick. 🤒

I’m trying to organise my paper chaos! The one notebook system looks like a good idea. 💡

Soooo good. Watched James May Oh Cook! (Hilarious btw) and have just had a shot making the kedgeree from the cook book. So yummy.
Served with 2 poached eggs. #cooking

And last but not least Carrot and Parsnip soup - I had a bunch left over from the hols that needed cooking off :)

And number 3 - baked oatmeal. I did this after the tomato-feta dish because if the oven has to be on I like to cook more than one thing to make up for all that heating up time :)
9 portions when sliced up :)

Cooking weekend dish 2. Don’t know what this one’s called but it’s popped up with a few YouTubers I follow. Very tangy so I’ll play around with things to add to tone that down a bit :) I see bacon or maybe a little cream 😋 (got 5 1-cup portions out of it and in the freezer)

Having a little cooking weekend. Been eating rubbish since the hols 🎄.
First up. Slow cooker butternut squash soup - with some Garam Masala:)
I ❤️ my slow cooker.

Watching War Films with My Dad by @almurray.bsky.social
Fantastic listen!
🎧 during car trips with my mum and we were in stitches during the Edwin Starr section - we had an intermission to have a sing and then back to the book.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fun (if slightly terrifying) reads. Gateway books to any of the topics they talk about 😉.

-Probably the last sound heard before the Universe folded up like a paper hat would be someone saying, “What happens if I do this? - Terry Pratchett
