Great example of moving shadow back in the day. One of my (many) favourites youtu.be/9ySxxVOHW7A?...

Rarely buy turkey but the freezers were out in the supermarket on Sunday so I grabbed a thigh for my roast. Was really impressed, will do again. Used up the leftovers on a home made flat bread and salad. With some @TheSmokeyCarter jaipur hot sauce mixed with yoghurt.

Good days foraging today. Nice haul of Ceps and Maitake Did a mushroom goats cheese and home grown courgette pasta with home made tagliatelle. Mushroom and goats cheese pizza on the side!

Had’nt yet found a use for my @weare1of100.bsky.social bag I got a year or two back with an order. Then it dawned on me so it’s my new mushroom foraging bag

Chicken curry, bhaji’s gunpowder potatoes, turmeric rice and chapattis. Miserable cold wet day, nothing better!

The rest of the mushrooms I coated in breadcrumbs and fried in garlic infused oil tonight to go with my pork chop! 🙌

Burnt my hand last night on my new pans. Forgot it was hot after being in a 200 degree oven Proper whoopsie, Was painful but apart from being a bit smooth is alright today

Day off today so took Zigs up the woods for a nose about to see what was about and stumbled on a ton of Parasol mushrooms. Forgot to get a wild pic but here’s the pickings raw and fried on sourdough for breakfast with some scrambled eggs

Had some dough left from friday nights pizza so did a cheese and tomato one to go with the ratatouille and chicken tonight.

Not quite the end of summer yet but the garden is giving up its final flourish of the summer bounty Last of the tomatoes, spring onions and courgettes. Ratatouille felt like the obvious thing to do. Cooked outdoors in the @gozney Roccbox. Going with some nice roast chicken 👌

Pizza night tonight, Anchovy, roast pepper, garlic and chilli Salsiccia, Nduja, roast pepper and hot honey Nailed it, these were proper decent! 🔥

Sort of a chicken Milanese tonight. Quick rustle out the fridge/freezer. One of my favourite dinners this. Chicken breadcrumbed myself, I don’t buy boxed ready meal stuff (much lol)

Little nip on this tonight to finish up (Pun not intended)

Seasoning new pans Costco bargain Triple ply aluminium hybrid £23 the pair Heavy as you like, proper quality feel Yet to cook on them but I have faith. Don’t get bogged down in fancy schmancy Hex clad shenanigans.

Was reminded of this last night. bit corny but shut up and dance back in the day were great Even some of the corny rave tracks had a great tune to them. I’m thinking Trip to Trumpton and the Smart-e’s Great days Raving I’m raving -Peter Bouncer youtu.be/dZnanvrPj2I?...

Recently learned Adam F did this in his bedroom in a flat in Abbots Langley. One of the biggest D&B tunes ever made I was literally living in mosh pit of D&B creation back in them days. All local boys, youtu.be/BTZAQlr6ZZc?...

Missus is at an Ibiza classics night tonight and this is what they are doing to Groove Armada’s Supersonic Woeful

Back in from a week down in the beautiful Gower Peninsula. Walking, boating, eating and quite a lot of drinking. Hard to tear yourself away from somewhere like that!

Bloke across the street feeding the kites again 🙄

Jeff Buckley. The best thing that was only around for a short time. This is hard as fuck but brilliant all The same 💪 Eternal Life youtu.be/TY8LmvuMvUs?... via @YouTube

Pizza night tonight, one anchovies and the other Salsicchia and hot honey

The arse ripped out of my shorts an hour into work this morning. Spent all day wandering around the office with my backside hanging out. @Superdry shorts that only bought in march. Not very impressive really is it And no I am not too fat for them. I am fat but not for them 😂

Cremated the toad in a hole tonight lads. Cos beers 😔

Nduja tomato linguine tonight with the correct amount of cheese 💪

Freezer raid tonight but no pie and chips! Dug out fish bones the fishmonger gave me and a beef short rib I previously smoked then braised. Converted using some garden veg into a fish risotto with cod for her and a short rib one for me. I don’t like to blow my trumpet but!!💪

Oof, not bad for an hour and 15 minutes knock up. Chicken curry, turmeric pilau rice, gunpowder potatoes, curried garden veg side, chapatis No recipes all made from scratch totally winged it!! 🔥🙌🙌

I know no one gives a monkeys about pigeons in general but couldn’t leave the poor fella stuck in that. Absolutely minging and yep it got all over me 🤢

Sitting in the (mostly) dark listening to hedgehogs chomping on the cat biscuits 🤗

32 in the shade at 7pm. There’s nothing else for it but cold beer o clock

Behold the shittest sprinkler known to man purchased from Tesco Earlier for £1.50 It’s more shit than imagined even though I knew it would be slightly shit

It’s become a bit of an annual now. Karen’s fam do a tough mudder and I provide support in the form of pizza for sustenance afterwards. Here’s a few I knocked up. Did alright, been norsing them right up lately so well happy they came good whilst on “stage” today 😂

Spent days trying to work out what the rotten fishy smell was in the fridge Just found half a bag of prawns in the veg drawer Must have been flying around knocking something up and put them there by mistake. No idea how long Absolutely gopping 😂😂

Bit of a new one on us. Picked up some skate cheeks of the fish stall on the market today so did them in a southern fried batter with slaw and Ranch dressing in wraps. Cheaper than prawns and made a great change!

The prodigy, no words Firestarter, Maxim with his hands Behind his back the whole time. Absolutely fuckin magical You want a good Glastonbury well Hire these boys every single time

Last nights dinner. Home made pasta with garlic, guanciale, veg and herbs out of the garden. Roasted tomato, olive and smoked cascaval cheese focaccia made out of leftover pizza dough done in the @gozney Roccbox Absolutely spot on if I do say so. As good as any restaurant.

Thought some on here might appreciate this 🤗

Had a cold two weeks ago. Got rid of it then Karen got one and now I’ve picked up hers ffs. Two colds in 3 weeks and in this weather too 🤷‍♂️

Free cherries!! Yeeersss get in!! 💪

Chicken Thai curry and pineapple fried rice. Fresh curry paste base Fresh veg Chicken Coconut milk. Trick is to cook everything in the coconut milk in the right order putting the paste in near the end. Keeps the flavours fresh as a daisy 👌

Missus out for the evening so Al Pastor tacos for one, boom! 💥🔥 Tomatillo, jalapeño and lime salsa for the fresh kick #bbqmunity

Simple plate of pasta. Some fruitpigcompany guanciale and a mix of stuff out the garden but topped up with some freezer peas Not quite enough yet for a full meal but getting there Love this time of year. Recklessly using a tenners worth of fresh herbs on any dish you like 🤗

Something I read earlier in the other place reminded me of this. As GQ would say, “OH MY GOSH” What a night that was, the like hardly been seen again. Played on the same bill as Phantasy once many moons ago

Been eating salads for lunches so fancied something a bit more ooof for dinner. Lemon chilli garlic seasoned chicken, lemon and olive oil mini roast spuds, veg and garden herb fricassee and a cheesy herby sauce. Basically a mid week roast but still summer on a plate! 🙌

Pork vindaloo, rice, paratha That is all 🔥

Broad beans and peas are looking ace this year. Possibly only a week or two before fresh garden broad beans. So exciting!
