Tonight's dinner was vegetarian tacos filled with sautéed onions, red bell peppers, kidney beans, and spices, all topped with melted cheese and lettuce. It was sooooo good 😋

I love pasta, but many plant based pasta recipes are high in carbs. Today, I bought this high protein fusilli from Tesco, and it was absolutely delicious. I can’t wait to try the spaghetti next time.

A new report by Save the Children shows 2024 saw a record-high 520 million children living in active conflict zones.

To put it into perspective:
If children living in conflict were a country, they would be the third largest nation.

I watched 'I Swear' at the cinema today & it was amazing. It’s based on the true story of Jack Davidson, who has Tourette’s syndrome. Scott Ellis Watson & Robert Aramayo did a great job playing him, it felt like they weren’t acting at all. Big thanks to Arc Cinema in #Cork for showing indie films 📽

From now on, I’ll no longer read The Guardian since it adopted the “consent to cookies or pay” model. This approach is, in my view, neither fully compliant with GDPR nor ethically sound. I thought only predatory outlets use this practice, but it seems the trend is spreading 🤦‍♀️

Why not rename it to "Department of Peace" 🤣

This cola is delicious 😋 It's not overly sweet, allowing you to actually taste the other flavours in the drink. For me, it's definitely better than Coca-Cola or Pepsi. I paid 3 euros for it, so it's a bit pricey compared to other brands, but it's worth it.

I've lived through wars, economic sanctions & a bloody civil war, yet I've never wished to die at any moment in my life. I thought those were the most violent events I would ever witness, but the horrors unfolding in Gaza are far beyond anything I imagined, driving Gazan children to wish to die

Today in #Cork, the Galeón Andalucía, a full-size replica of a 17th-century Spanish galleon, is on display. This impressive vessel, which represents the maritime history of the era, is open for exploration as part of the Cork Harbour Festival.

Enjoying a delicious iced latte at Orso in Cork City. If you ever visit Cork, I highly recommend checking out this restaurant. They offer a fantastic blend of Middle Eastern, Indian, and Western cuisine.

I had some leftover falafel, so I decided to create a Middle Eastern-Indian fusion dish, let’s call it Falafel Chaat. It’s a stack of Lebanese bread, cottage cheese, falafel, olives, kale, a spicy date-tamarind sauce & a sprinkle of Bombay mix. Let me tell you, it was insanely delicious 😋 #food

Flatbread topped with red kidney beans sautéed with onions in a spicy gochujang sauce, layered with grilled halloumi cheese, and finished with cucumber, carrots, walnuts, and olive oil. It was an explosion of flavours, absolutely delicious 😋 I've a chef’s soul trapped in a PhD student’s body 😁

There are so many search engines to choose from, which is great, but now I have to do a bit of research on each one. What do you think? Have you used any besides Google, Yahoo, or Microsoft?

The Muslim population in the UK is just 6.5%, yet the BBC chose to highlight this as a headline. It's no wonder there's growing hostility toward Muslims and brown people in the UK. This type of media coverage reflects the systemic racism ingrained in the country's institutions.

Quick lunch: pizza with crisps on top. Is this sacrilegious? Maybe. Delicious? Absolutely. Sometimes, you just have to embrace the chaos 😋

@bsky.app Hi team, the keyboard keeps disappearing when I try to enter the username in the app, see the video. Please fix this issue, several people reported the same issue on Play store too. My phone is Samsung S23. I didn't open an issue ticket on Github because the issue is already there.
