A throne from which I’m told all history does unfold

August 9, 2020
I got back in the pool yesterday.  In terms of getting back to where I was back in March, I wasn't too bad.  I think the walking helped with that.  In terms of an actual swim, it was frustrating because, again, there was a large group of people who seemed to think that the pool…

    New hat! So, my sister in law has convinced my brother to raffle their house. In case you think I'm joking, why would I possibly want to make this up? She sent me a message on FB asking me to promote the raffle page.  I'm not going to.  I refuse to aid their obvious breakdown.…

    The full picture. Food! Last Saturday, I made Lime Chicken with Rise in the slow cooker: It wasn't too bad. I'm not sure if I'm going to use less butter, more lime juice or both nest time because it tasted too much of the former and too little of the latter. Sunday, hey Jambalaya! This…

    I got myself two new dragons, so now I have one of each colour: Cute, ain't they? At the moment I've got lime chicken cooking in the slow cooker.  The actual recipe is lime chicken with rice, but I haven't added that yet.  Tomorrow, I'm probably going to make Jambalaya in the instant pot.  Never&...

    I've spent most of this weekend being an idiot. Yesterday, I decided to make Spanish chicken and rice in my instant pot.  I bought all the ingredients and cooked it.  And I did think there was too much chicken stock.  And it did almost fill the instant pot.  But I thought it would be OK,…

    Cure dragons! The shop where I get my incense started selling these and they're so adorable I couldn't resist.  Here they are indivdually: I'm probably going to get another 2 at the weekend and try and stop myself there. I've finally found a way to stop getting the popup about leaving the page wh...

  • Rain!
    June 27, 2020
    It's been unbearably hot the past two days.  It's raining now, which has cooled things down. I'm almost finished watching the first season of Evil.  It's really good, but I'm not sure how the buggery it's a network show.  It's incredibly dark. I made the chicken with shallots.  Here's how it turn...
