Big pot of pollo guisado, smelling wonderful. Normally I use legs and thighs, skinned, but this time I only had legs. Turned out perfectly as usual. dinafarina.substack.com/p/a-semi-ori... #chicken #pollo #polloguisado #cooking #Latin #PuertoRican

I skinned, deboned & butterflied some chicken thighs, let them soak in a mixture of two eggs, 5 cubes of frozen crushed garlic, salt. Then I breaded with a mixture of Italian bread crumbs, pecorino & parmesan, parsley, black pepper & salt. Baked in olive oil 175c 20 min, flip 20 min, & fan for 5 min

Been using MS Office Lens to scan photocopies of old wills. The app is no longer available so had to sideload the apk file. Works great. It straightens the image and turns it into a legible pdf in a split second. With my folding stand for my phone I will be all set for Kresen Kernow.

Made a big pot of Pasta e Lenticchie. Nice economical dish unless you are in the USA! 340 grams of cherry tomatoes $6.99, a large head of organic garlic $7.99. Instead used some passata and a non-organic garlic for the dish. I reckon 10 cups of food for about $2.25 - $2.75 minus the cheese.

Decided to use up some leftover chicken so decided to make a couple of pies. My wife is not bit on carrots or peas or leeks so I just used broccoli and cauliflower. She doesn't like spices so just tyme, salt and black pepper. Ran out of flour so used some spuds for the top. Secret ingredient tumeric

Florida stylee! Yardwork. Don't want to get skin cancer. The best goggles for yard work are these cheap Amazon swimming googles. $4 a pair. They are totally sealed of course so keeps dust and pollen out, plus they are tinted. I also use a pair for sanding dust that are not tinted.

It is with great sadness that my boy Rurpert died today. My wife & I were by his side when he took his final breaths. Earlier in the day he went for a walk as best he could around the garden. He ate as normal, groomed himself & then had a seizure. A few hours later another seizure, & then gone. RIP

SOBT as it is known in Orlando. South Orange Blossom Trail AKA The Trail, 441, Old Dixie Highway. An iconic 939 mile long American highway. When I lived in Hollywood I was about 1000 feet off of it, and nowhere in Orlando have I been more than a mile or so from this road.

IMHO, the best looking bit of digital camera kit ever made. It still performs well years after being released, a testimony to the people who designed and built it. Just wish the 25mm and 45mm were all metal like the other lenses. #cameragear #m4/3 #Olympus #Pen-F #cameraporn #OMD #monochrome #B&W

So pleased Spain won the World Cup today. Argentina don't play football, they play to injure the other team, to disrupt the beautiful game. They have done it through the tournament and have gotten away with it. Finally some calls went against them and they couldn't play. Karma baby!

I added this image because in the BBC article they removed St Pirans Flags from the image they used. The flag is used as a symbol for #Cornish nationalism & this goes against their narrative. #bannerperran #Kernow #Mexico #pachuca #pastes #pasty #football #futbol www.bbc.com/sport/footba...

There is a point in genealogy when you cannot with certainty go back further. This varies by country, as well as further by districts or parishes. Modern wars & disasters add to the difficulty of going further back. I am pleased to have been able to reliably trace my Cornish ancestry back to 1550.
