100% with you on this MiMi. Fucking hate a voice note. To me it feels like the lazier option when someone can't be arsed to type a few words. It's far less convenient to access when out and about! Far far prefer getting a text-based message (or email, old school is perfectly fine).

I have never seen this before and I laughed so hard I had to get out of bed and go to the bathroom. 🤣

“Extracting Grenfell from the statistics, actually people dying in house fires is rare. Many, many more people die on the roads driving cars, but we’re not making cars illegal, so why are we stopping houses being built?” Reform's Simon Dudley speaking in opposition to building fire regulations.

I had an appointment to arrange a sleep study at a hospital down in Newport so of course we HAD to go to the food court for dinner. We shared buffalo momos in a sesame tomato soup, then Pete had a fried chicken sandwich (burger) and I had soy garlic Korean fried chicken over rice! #foodsky

Additional proof I'm part feline.

Nonchalant animal noises This is what the internet is made for 😭😭🤣🤣

I love to share what we're eating at home which is often home-cooked by @petedrinks.com. But we also enjoy ready made food too. Last night was beef braised in red wine girasoli (round ravioli) with pesto + garlic bread. Nothing wrong with ready made so pls never feel you shouldn't share it! #foodsky

Just had a short walk outside. Forgot to take my camera but here are some from Friday's little walk in the garden. #gardensky

Trans rights are human rights! Trans women are women Trans men are men It's simple as that (or bloody well should be)

What’s the best snark line to put in a retirement card for someone in your office who’s made your life hell for two years, without saying “you’re a disgusting POS. Have a miserable life”.

Birthday present ideas help please for a boy turning 11, and no ideas being given by parents. (ROLLING EYES HERE) Any general ideas that might suit the age group?

Has anyone counted the number of Reform people that have been exposed as racists, homophobes, misogynists? Because it feels like it's one or two every other week

Beyond despicable.

Finally had a hair cut after 5-6 months! Back to the "style" it's meant to be, a kind of bob thing. Before (a few days ago) and after (today)

Planning a road trip home with my bestie. Where is good in #Glasgow these days? We're Merchant City twats going wedding dress shopping. We love Ichiban, anywhere that was fun 15 years ago like Brunswick or Bar 10 and will not do Southside, sorry.

What’s your favourite gif?

This needs to be a daily post.

Now there's a crochet project I can get behind!! Sth for you, @terryleopard.bsky.social?

For tonight's dinner @petedrinks.com's back to cooking from the latest review title, Around The World In 80 Meatballs by Bunny Banyai. Here is Kefta Mkaouara, a Moroccan tagine-style dish of meatballs and eggs. Absolutely bloody delicious! #foodsky #recipe #cooking #bookreview

May I retrospectively share Friday's lunch? #foodsky #lunch Toasted white Ty Melin sourdough, an entire ½ of Cricket St Thomas goats cheese, fresh cherry tomatoes, and oak smoked tomato balsamic. And some British charcuterie. Minutes to assemble and yet utterly magnificent! It pleased me so much!

ICYMI Buttery mushrooms are already good but adding miso takes them to another level! #foodsky #recipe #japanese #miso #cookbook

ICYMI A delicious way to enjoy daikon (one of my favourite vegetables) with miso #foodsky #miso #japanese

My lunch = leftovers from last night's supper club! So so good. #foodsky

Breakfast = Persian love cake given as a gift to take away at the end of yesterday's Joon Persian Supper Club. #foodsky

A friend of mine (a doctor) sent me this without comment. * Forks * No * I don't know Good to know the NHS is doing well...

@naturallynarrow.bsky.social your comment on my Insta made me giggle, it's very much at my level🤣😁😘😘😘😘

Very lovely evening indeed with @petedrinks.com, @gourmetgorro.bsky.social and Mrs GG at Leyli Homayoonfar's spectacularly excellent Joon Persian Supper Club in Llandaff, Cardiff.

In case you’re also a fan of pansies and violas here are a few more. Dopamine from pansies= pansamine ✔️🌿

The difference between these two is racism

NEW KAVEY EATS COOKBOOK REVIEW: Miso: From Japanese Classics to Everyday Umami by Bonnie Chung www.kaveyeats.com/miso-bonnie-... [reshared because of my typo] #foodsky #bookreview #japanese #cooking

🚨

Aaah I'm glad this (work) week is over. I had a spectacularly unproductive day today.

Look look look (Ivor the Engine online) youtu.be/dPae_D6Ehxo?...

#foodsky Anyone know any ethical purchasing alternatives to Osem soup croutons? If not will do without .

Isn't this is the one Cunty Giles recommended all whilst being one of their investors?

GREAT news from OVO! Erm.

Do not know what the fuck is up with my hip being so bad this week. Went to bed before 8.30 pm, got up at 7 am (yes, 10.5 hours, I try and have mininum of 9.5 now to be vaguely functional). But pain woke me up a lot so it was not the best sleep.

Same x

Yaaaassss

The cookbook we are reviewing next is Around the World in 80 Meatballs by Bunny Banyai. I bloody love meatballs! #foodsky #recipe #meatballs (It was really, really hard to narrow down a shortlist for Pete to choose from, I bookmarked more than half the book!)

Food / ecology read:

This is so on point it hurts.

I have a single lunch and a single dinner out in London next month and I'm overwhelmed with where to have them because there's SO MUCH in London I want to try. Preferably stuff I can't readily find in Abergavenny, Newport, Cardiff, Bristol. (The first two that's a low bar)

Another collection of interesting reads on diverse food topics!

And why the fuck is Onedrive suddenly* not doing the ONE thing it's supposed to do i.e. sync changes back and forth. Oh please, if you work for Microsoft tell me. So I can come around to your place and cut your fucking legs off. *(yes, I have tried "restarting" & "re-installing". It's such shite)
