english food

horse endorsed

it really is lovely and autumnal out there today

British vs American hippies, late 60s British: in an infinite cosmos you and I are nothing special, let's celebrate the beauty of life American: I can't sleep at night because I'm too busy having sex, also I take heroin lol

infinite food glitch just wet some seeds & they turn air into food?? that keeps getting bigger??? exploit now before inevitable patch

a reminder to everyone that this week we are cooking FLAGEOLET beans I hope everyone enjoyed last week's CHICKPEAS

there are worse places to be

focaccia and lambrusco with friends

furries, just stop drinking fireball

some london horses

unity diner, london cheese burger £12 this was pretty good - soy patty cooked over fire was very good, acceptable support 4/5

I wonder how many times Alanis Morissette has had irony mansplained to her

not the event you might have hoped for

happy seasonal affect

equine magical realism the author has some sort of zebra obsession which I found a bit offputting

the flight time from most of asia is longer thanks to having to dodge russia, but wow the views over the arctic are incredible

and now back to London after a lovely if slightly frantic two weeks in Tokyo & Nagoya

japan is not always as sophisticated as stereotypes suggest

bold new frontiers in apple consumption

more tokyo work views

today's work views

japanese curry sauce is indistinguishable from chip shop curry sauce (delicious)

having a terrific time in Tokyo

horse travels off to tokyo for two weeks

Kent views it has been delightful

apple fayre (pre and post deep frying)

I found some white capped, white gilled mushrooms in the Kentish countryside delicious????

proper horses

I am in teynham, where cherries were introduced to england by henry viii in more recent local updates, this cat tried to murder me today

a podcast told me that spending time outside is good for general health, so in that spirit I'm downloading the new story of seasons farming game

spotted this morning I have so many questions

how to cook pumpkin step one throw that butternut squash in the trash where it belongs then take your nice pumpkin and roast slowly in big chunks - my kabocha here for 90 mins, note the syrupy juices - the slower you cook, the sweeter it will be ready for soup, salad, pasta, curry etc

update! I have post-infection reactive arthritis in both my feet walking is an extreme challenge

apple season is a couple of weeks ahead of normal schedule, below we already have discoveries (red): basically the beaujolais noveau of kentish apples katys (red-yellow): juicy, a bit soft, pleasant enough egremont russets (ugly): nutty, delicious allrounder

at the corner shop this morning, nobody else there the dude serving sneezed & then said "bless you" to himself I have never been so badly shamed

today's theme is rehydration

thinking about getting into religion

heading back to london my thanks to all the horses

I love it when furries give me stickers of themselves

update! googling zinc poisoning

all you can eat oysters for £7 in tainan I ate maybe 150... maybe more? who knows yes it is possible to fill up on oysters one of my favourite eating experiences ever

food of love: potatoes confirmed (Le Menu de l’amour, Jean-Ernest Aubert,1884)

last night's meal in Taipei, which is all vegan somehow

holy crap the tsmc campus in tsinchu is biiiiiig

taiwan furries are a different breed this is not a planned meetup - this is a wild unknown furry on the streets of taipei

vegan amore taipei truffle pork burger, NT$400 (£10 ish) with tots it's a 2/5 (technically fine, weird omnipork patty, weird cheese) on the tots... the replacement of bubble & squeak with tots at breakfast is an act of culinary bastardry - don't let it happen to chips as well potato freedom

the italian station at the taiwan hotel buffet lunch is full of the classics

I used this today, which was a new experience

taiwan bakery is boldly challenging the trend away from upf

chimei hq in tainan utterly bizarre juxtaposition of a lovely modernist building & the most stereotypically naff classical art
