I thought the wreath needed some birds.

Is this enough guanciale for the carbonara? 😅 #Foodsky

Books are so damn cool

Let's goooooo already!

Leftover phyllo dough? Hot tip: wrap it around yesterday's leftovers and call it lunch. This may look like a chimichanga, but is really just leftover chili. 🍜🍽️ #GoodLunch

Dutch baby breakfast for the win! This one gained good height and colour, I think, and has a delicious topping of diced Polish sausage (Krucha z galaretką), diced cheddar, and green onion. 🍽️🍜

Thank you @drjengunter.bsky.social This is oddly not discussed in the media and it should be. It’s dangerous.

The lighting makes this sauce look a lot orangier than it was on the table, but here is a pan of Kefta mkaouara simmering away. Just need to let the egg whites cook a bit more. 🍽️🍜

My chicken pot pie filling has broken out of containment. 🍜🍽️

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.

You hear a lot about smol beans, but today is all about the lorge beans. This is prep for tonight's Fabada Asturiana. 🫘🍲🍜🍽️

Hello! 🍜 I am a baker based in #Mumbai, India. I bake these plum #cakes with rum every Nov/Dec. Dried fruits and nuts are soaked in Old Monk rum and then finally go into this decadent #Christmas treat. If you want to order or know more, number's in the menu. Please #repost for reach. Tysm! 💖

I was kinda nervous about giving this speech TBH. I don't usually get nervous about public speaking but going to a fancy Washington DC event and talking about fascism and why AI sucks felt like a lot honestly. I was so relieved people seemed to like it.

Fancy nail colour for a holiday event for work. The name on the bottle is Paris to Ibiza, but I'm calling it I Am Not A Robot (Captcha for short). 💅

So I know I said my next drop would be tomorrow, but happy Thursday, it’s all up now! Last drop of the year. I might upload a few more pieces tomorrow if I finish them, but that’s it for me at Loxythemaker.com Last day to order is December 1st. (Sorry still no US shipping, but share anyways?)

Big snowy day today, which was perfect for the cheese fondue dinner I had planned. 🍽️🍜🫕

Reskeet with a time you looked cool

This looks super cool! #Africanfuturism! Their kickstarter is in the link. Just sent my contribution, too. 🐊 brittlepaper.com/2025/11/supp...

I’m an Autistic classically trained chef and I wrote a food aversion acceptance cookbook and guide titled COLOR TASTE TEXTURE, that’s all about finding out what works for specific sensory needs and how to customize food for them. It’s useful for all ages, no cooking experience necessary.

Oooh it's snowing! Mixed with rain, but still! ❄️ Definitely not going to stick unless the temperature drops more, though.

Every disabled person deserves a home that is fully suited to their access needs and that they are able to thrive in.

Pizza (but variable toppings). 🍽️🍜

Sunday morning breakfast biscuit. Working on my sausage patty game. This is enormous, an absolute beast. Going to be full for a while! 🍜🥚🧀🍽️

Tourtière! 🍜🥧 Thats New Year's Eve dinner at our house.

What's your favourite song about the rain? m.youtube.com/watch?v=nV9A...

Well, this went wildly sideways

Experimenting with chia seed smoothies. The blueberry cocoa 🫐🍫 one was pretty good, and I liked the raspberry banana with coconut-almond milk. I don't know that this will be a long lived trend, but it's a nice break in routine. More washing up though.

The morning sky is a vivid magenta today. Alas, I cannot adequately photograph it from the bus.

My responsibility for the rest of the evening has been communicated.

Cheese and cracker. 🧀 St. Agur on a Tuc cracker, with green tomato chutney (made by @palleh.bsky.social).

Meal plan for the week. Things might move around, except Thursday, which is a restaurant booking, but I think the odds are good on this being the lineup. 🍜🍽️ #Foodsky #MealPlanning

...Ah well. Nothing to do, I guess, bur get ready to make some potato scones. (2/2)

I regret to inform you that the only way to finish your novel is to keep writing.

I knew slipstitch ribbing was going to take forever, and by golly I was right! 🧶🪢🫩

The Jamaican government has allocated over $1 billion to provide grants and assistance for restoration, reconstruction, and relocation efforts. NOTE: the only legitimate government channel for aid is www.supportjamaica.gov.jm Verify that "gov.jm" is at the end of the url before donating to govt.

The Cheese Truck has visited work today. I have succumbed to the cheese bag o' the week.🧀

It begins...

That’s wonderful! 🥰 Stories of cooking with loved ones as a child are always precious

I made whole wheat molasses sandwich bread today. 🍞🍽️🍜

I'm not an Appletini girlie, but I kinda want to make a poison apple martini. I envisage a green apple base with red, spherified Fireball pearls. 🍸

I think we under-estimate how many people are miserable because they have no enthusiasms, no hobbies, because they gave up reading and quit learning when school ended. It's shocking how much studying a beloved subject elevates your mood. It will transform your life.

Ever since I learned the fast, no fuss, darn near foolproof way to make a small batch of hollandaise, eggs benedict has become an easy option, limited only by my arteries. This uses up the last of the sage and cheddar biscuits very nicely. 🍜🍽️🍳🥚
