Ah, yes probably. I've avoided Tik Tok.

Are you on Instagram? If so, James Dimitri is your friend😉

Went out for a fishy lunch as is our tradition. Will maybe snaffle a bit of toast later.

Yes they do. The first time I used them, I thought they are never going to work, surely. They do, and they are great.

Glazed with a snail slime.

But is it local tedious that you've foraged yourself?

So much for the @metoffice.gov.uk weather forecast of light rain. We appear to be in the middle of some sort of hurricane currently.

Ladies that go in to the toilet cubicle right next door to you when there were a ton of other options.

@theguardian.com The new quarterly Feast is great. I'm really enjoying it.

I’m doing a minced paneer curry with a dhal and some of those magic cook from frozen Shana parathas. No booze either.

He is also massively into his food and when peace allows, he likes to tell you about all the delicious Middle Eastern goodies he is scoffing.

I’m using my bumper surprise packs of leeks that Ocado accidentally sent me to make a leek, ham, wine sauce for pasta.
Have already made a vat of leek and potato soup.

This is a terrific thread - M&S and dogs, what more do you need.
I recommend the M&S Gastro pub Chicken Kyivs and the M&S Collection Labneh dip which has a delicious zingy basil and mint dressing on top.

Nil by Mouth, Breaking the Waves, The Magdalene Sisters.
All brilliant no doubt, but all really disturbing.

Alysa Liu absolutely smashing it in the ice skating and having the time of her life in the process, performing to Donna Summer. What a superstar.

It’s gripping

And look at that sky, and the beautiful light.

Today’s Wordle is going to take down a few streaks, I think.

Malaga, how lovely.

Bizarrely people seem proud of it, rather than acknowledging it is a failure of parenting

This. If you are old enough to go on holiday yourself, then it's your responsibility.

Just opened a baby Baron from Neals Yard and it is hard and chalky in the middle despite being at room temperature so you are not alone.

So long as it's not followed by failure, plummet or tragedy, then I am OK with it

We too followed Scottish tradition and had steak pie, with mash, neeps and sprouts - somehow we also need to break into the baby Baron Bigod.

It was tasty and yes, cosy too. I'm very much enjoying your Maltese tales.

I made a Winter minestrone loosely based on an Alistair Little recipe but have included all the bits of veg hanging about in the fridge - hopefully like a Nonna would. Have a few cooked chestnuts leftover that I’ll crumble on top. I do love a dumpling though.

Our local hot meat sandwich shop went viral on Tik Tok causing massive queues. Until everyone realised that £13 for a shit pulled pork sandwich was quite a lot of money.
