hello there. welcome to my first blog. have been cajoled into this... sort of, but I won't knock it 'til i've tried it.
i will probably mostly blog about chickens, cooking, how often i nearly get killed riding my bike, and power tools.
I'll try and give you lots of nice pretty pictures too, like this one:
l-r we have boomhauer, bobby and reginald iolanthe chicken, or reg as she's more commonly known.
forgive their muddy beaks.
so that's the chickens from blog #1 done. (much, much, much more to follow)
cooking- making saag paneer later, will let you know if it is/ was edible.
near bike deaths- two this morning (roadworks & buses), will be taking a nice long detour home so plenty more opportunities to get squished.
power tools- none today due to hand injury caused indirectly by a toolbox. took it as a sign.
i may abandon this format very soon.

loving the blog. im especially interested in the food and the near death experiences :) good work! keep it up x
ReplyDeletepoor unloved chickens! ;-)
ReplyDeletechickens are good too! i just said "especially" :) x
ReplyDeletehehe ok.
ReplyDeleteupdate on the food:
Saag Paneer was my best yet, but still not the standard I would like to achieve. one factor may be that i don't use butter or ghee (at 5'1" you only have to look at them to put on 3 stone), but I don't think that was the problem. the flavour needed to be warmer and fuller- i don't think i toasted my spices enough. if i ever make a version i'm proud of, i will post the recipe.
one note though- the paneer was from Madhav, and much, much nicer than the only one that ever seems available in supermarkets. cheaper too.
I beg your pardon, I should have said "of which I am proud".
