I didnโ€™t plan on a sausage dog but McKenzie nudged me back to hope | Debbie Elkind First-time dog owner Debbie Elkind was worried how sheโ€™d fare with her new dachshund. Then she fell in love with her โ€˜ridiculous, beautifulโ€™ animal

I miss having someone to cook for, so it was nice to make even this simple, casual meal for a visiting friend. Roast beef, potatos and gravy with whatโ€™s-in-the-crisper salad (asparagus, capsicum, cherry tomatoes, capers & feta).

Wait, California rolls originated in Canada? I mean, I knew they werenโ€™t Japanese but funnily I assumed they were Californian ๐Ÿ˜‚

I wrote a piece about these little idiot loves-of-my-life, and itโ€™s going to be published soon in The Guardian, so thatโ€™s delightful ๐Ÿฅฐ

And I may have found my dream house-cottage with a beautiful gardenโ€ฆ although some cashed-up Airbnb investor will probably out-bid me ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿ™

Thank you! I have all those ingredients & that will be perfect with some leftover marinated hard tofu I have to use up ๐Ÿ˜‹

I used to do this and put it in mason jars, where it would slowly get redder and more delicious over the next few days. Crystallized ginger is a good addition! My fave was orange, vanilla & grated ginger too.

Slow Cooker Crispy Chinese Shredded Chicken Chinese Shredded Chicken - Slow cooked in a classic Chinese braising liquid, shredded then pan fried until golden. 5 minutes to prepare, freezes perfectly, great for fast midweek meals.

I love mine. This is insanely delicious & so easy: www.recipetineats.com/slow-cooker-...

Iโ€™d say โ€˜fair enoughโ€™ but my disapproval is too deep.

This makes me miss the days when I was a โ€œfairy cake motherโ€ to two small boys. Theyโ€™d have loved this.

Cupcake design is brilliant for a kidsโ€™ party too.

Itโ€™s like making a chip butty with rye bread. *shakes head*

No, Iโ€™m sorry but NO!

Soft crappy white bread is essential to the experience. This is a travesty.

Ooh, Iโ€™m going to look for this. I donโ€™t know if we have that here but itโ€™d be great, including for smoothies.

Right? I didnโ€™t know such a thing existed before tbh. Never occurred to me to look.

Sometimes I food process a bunch of onion, celery and carrot to make & freeze sofrito. More work but then itโ€™s so easy to make a really tasty dish.
