I’m still alive

February 11th, 2010

I’ve been a right sicko, I hope it’s not my food, but I’m better now. Life is going great, got some awesome new flatmates and a happy home. This post is mainly for me to test out the new awesome Google Buzz to see what’s up with that.

I’ve come up with some lovely new foods, [...]

Claims Team UK slash USA – Con Artists

January 22nd, 2010

Despite being on Telephone Preference Service, I get about 4 calls a day from these con artists asking me about my finances. The call always starts from a record message and then it asks me for a random number to press to speak to someone.

When getting through to someone to enquire about how I can [...]

How to invite ALL your friends to a group, event or page on Facebook.

January 17th, 2010

invite-boxWant to promote your Facebook group, event or page? Facebook has a limit on how many mates you can add, I’m guessing because it’ll be filled with spam, however, good news, there is a neat little way around that.

When you’ve got an invite box, like this…

365 thing… maybe we’ll turn it into a 52.

January 7th, 2010

dislikeOk, this creative 365 thing isn’t quite working out how I wanted, I’ve done creative stuff, but haven’t had the time to blog it. So, I’m turning it into a ‘52′ thing, one thing a week. This week I’m working on my portfolio, should be finished in the next few days.

Then, next week, I shall [...]

Failed Roast beef, but awesome Accidental Soup.

January 6th, 2010

Roast Beef (I think)

I really like Roast Beef. I grow up not having it, I don’t think my mum ever cooked it for me, but when I go to the likes of a sandwich shop, a roast beef and horseradish sandwich is one of my favorites. My mum did make Salt Beef, which I’ll try to make myself [...]

Jamie Oliver’s Risotto (with peas and aspagous)

January 2nd, 2010

FinishedI’ll admit to it, I hate cooking with rice. I can never get it quite how I like it, it’s eaither over or under done. I’ve not gotten around to buying a metal strainer eaither. I like eating it, just hate cooking it. I was sitting at the doctors, going through the “20 minute meal” Jamie Oliver app, and he showed me how it’s done. It looked a bit of a palarava, but I was determind to try it, and it turned out good (the second one, the first one I wasn’t keen on.)

365 Days of Web Development, Design, Photography or Cooking.

December 26th, 2009

Something a dayIt’s a new year, and a new decade. There are a lot of ‘Photo a day’ things. My plan is to dedicate a bit of time (maybe 10 minutes, maybe a few hours, we’ll see) a day, every day, for the next year, into doing something creative. Weather that’s cooking something new and interesting, designing some wallpapers or web apps, developing a new section to a website…. It doesn’t really matter, as long as it’s something. It’ll help keep the mind sharp, and hopefully I’ll come up with something useful to someone.

Sweet Chilli Jam (or sauce if it doesn’t settle)

December 23rd, 2009

A lovely christmas prezzy.
Have I come up trumps, or have I come up trumps. Oh boy, this is a great recipe. There was a bit of flaffing about, cutting up all the vegetables (and braving ASDA a few days before Christmas), but I think this one is worth it, and it makes so much that if you give 3/4 of it away as a gift, you’ll still have enough to last you a good while. There is a Sweet Chili sauce I buy from the local butchers, “So!Go sweet chili”, it’s about ÂŁ4 a bottle, and although it lasts a little 200ml bottle. It’s great stuff, but if I was charging that for this stuff, I’d be a millionaire after the 5th batch, and let me tell you, it’s a damn sight better.
