A Year's Worth of Eating

So many recipes, so much good produce, so little time to eat it all. Kes has far, far too many cookbooks. Not that it stops her from buying more. The idea of dinner is one of the few things that motivates her in the mornings. Just to monitor exactly what goes on in her life, she is sharing her food year. Her Significant Other will make regular appearances, but honestly, you do not want to know what he eats for lunch. Never buy a cook book that doesn't have an author.

Great Appliance Disasters

It was like something out of a Jacques Tati film. A friend lent me his blender to test drive, as I wanted one with a strong enough motor to do ice. No instructions, but hey, it's a blender. What is there to explain.

Let me tell you what there is to explain ~ don't under any circumstances unscrew the base from the thread or this will happen...

It was meant to be a pumpkin mousse made with silken tofu, with pumpkin pie flavourings. It ended up literally everywhere ~ walls, floor, animals, anything there was to cover in orange slop got covered in orange slop.

I love food so much I get it everywhere.
