I’ve never understood Britain’s passion with pies, at least, until now. Gingsters, Pukka, Supermarket-own-brand, it’s all weak flavoured filling in clangy pastry that holds no appeal to me what so ever. But I do see so many people enjoy them, and I want in on that. And now with this, I can see exactly why a good pie is just, gosh darn it, one of the nicest things I’ve ever made. I admit, the pastry part of the pie is irrelevant to me, it’s just as good as a stew with a bit of mash, but it does make it look pretty.

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 [...]

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 [...]

I’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.)

It’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.
