Her swede laksa is my only swede dish. I shall investigate this rasam. I trust Meera more than any other cookbook writer.

Thank you so much! Sister Celeriac and Brother Swede are my most troublesome root veg

Help me out. Favourite prep?

Two celeriac! Two!

They are at war with you

Reciprocals

SAME. My day has been consumed by it but I’ve got some nice groupings on the left of my screen.

Doing stuff is so cool!

That looks excellent. Will put it on my list.

I’d say 20% of my social media is polluted by screenshots of tiny text. I find it mystifying.

It was, wasn’t it.

Use shops, use cinemas, use pubs, cafes and restaurants. Use grocers, use markets, use libraries, use museums, use galleries.

The internet will not sustain us.

I had a brief period with the same problem and also Campari?!?! Thankfully it passed. My thoughts are with you at this time.

Polish with a lipstick icon next to it

Q perplexed for the last couple of days why gmail was asking me if I wanted to translate all of my emails into Polish, and why there was a lipstick in the bottom left of every email.

Wonder if they user-tested this with anyone who has (a) heard of Poland or (b) ever actually polished anything

Over the years, readers have apologised for borrowing my book from the library. Don't! Today I, and so many other writers out there, received our PLR statements. We get paid for every loan. It's not always a lot of £, but it makes a difference, especially when an advance is low. Keep borrowing!

Flickr is still a good choice ethically. Can vouch for it from having worked with Flickr Foundation www.awesome.co/our-friends

Oh maybe? I’ve never made a curtido. Must rectify!

Roughly chopped into little bits when using dried chiles.

I really like chipotle pepper in my fermented cabbage. Makes it a great topping for Mexican and meats.

Is that because I had a few seconds to see the fear in his eyes? Would we ever get unstuck?!

Got stuck opposite Logan Echolls/Jason Dohring in the revolving door at the National Portrait Gallery.

Is that… Popcorn Palace?

A bespoke two-piece suit a la Margaret Howell that makes me feel like Diane Keaton (note I am not shaped like Diane Keaton).

Looks fantastic! That’ll keep me from walking into the wrong house next time I’m in town.

Forza! ❤️

Welcome to rainy fascist island!

Once on the Tube I had a right old internal laugh when I, a middle aged woman reading How to Blow Up a Pipeline, noticed a mild looking man across from me reading How to Kill Your Family.

Does a compilation count?

No, but I am intending to ask @ceepeebee.bsky.social for smoking tips

That’s a damn fine haul
