That feeling when you’re visiting friends for Sunday lunch, offer to make pud then realise you only have storecupboard ingredients & no time to get to the shops. Enter @nigella.bsky.social ‘s chocolate cake www.nigella.com/recipes/old-... & a couple of recipe sub’s and we have pudding 😮‍💨 😋
A round chocolate cake in the foreground, on a blue round tray. The cake is covered on top and all sides with roughly spread chocolate icing (no smooth plastering for this cook!) with some small gold sugar stars on the top. Out of focus in the background is a vase of flowers. 

Not as skillful as Queen Nigella’s efforts would be, but it’s hopefully enough to impress my god daughter.

You’ve just inspired me to try and get my friend’s 10yo into Blyton. I couldn’t put them down as a child (and was regularly told off for reading them under the covers…) Famous Five was my favourite and I can’t count the times I re-read them.

My regular appointment for a pint this evening 🩸 The staff were superb as always and I had a lovely snack before I left. (I also use it as excuse for a takeaway - tonight’s reward was a cheeky Nando’s 🐔😋) Find your nearest donation session at blood.co.uk

Love these nuggets about your dad, he sounds ace. My gran was firm believer that age was a mindset. Well into her 80s she’d tell me she was off to “help the old lady down the road”. I once enquired as to said old lady’s age. Gran said “oh she’s younger than me, dear, but she _acts_ old”.

So they just keep coming in… I have the door to the garden open so hopping in is easy (they jump SO high!) but maybe it’s too hot for them outside? Given today’s visitor a fresh picked lettuce leaf but it doesn’t seem interested. @petrathepostdoc.bsky.social any ideas why they keep coming in?

Just removed this little critter from the floor. Pointed out that my floor is made of wood, not grass… Put it outside where it happily hopped off into some sort of vegetation.
A close up of a grasshopper sitting on a wooden floor. Photo is taken side on and it looks like the grasshopper is giving me severe side eye, like he knows he made a life choice by hopping on some wood and he’s comfortable with that, thanks.

One of the highest risk activities in policing is eating pasta sauce or a bacon sarnie with red sauce whilst wearing a white uniform shirt… (I’ve never dared risk an egg and bacon sarnie in my whites, the egg would inevitably end up all down my front).

Previous cats (who overlapped for some years with Yasser) were Chairman Miaow and Macatma Gandhi. It should be noted that my Gandhi was not of a pacifist leaning (at least, not if you were a rodent…). Calling all three of them indoors felt like a UN peacekeeping mission.
