Microwave cooking circa 1950's

So found this book:

Thought it would come in handy since our over broke about a year ago and the Landlord said "hey you have a microwave you can still eat"

Yeah coz It's the same thing right?

Holy fudge that looks amazing I'm totally gonna make that no problem!

NAILED IT!

Daily Snippet: Spoons well spent

Today I've spent tackling the garden. It's got 10 yrs worth of overgrowth and has been doing whatever the hell it likes for a long time now. I made a promise I would sort it out and I've been cutting, clearing and replanting for over a year now. 

2013

2014
Planted some potatoes along the side. Found a chair!

Today: Before!

Today: After!

It had only recently occurred to me to take Before and After pics. But I can honestly say that was Spoons well spent.

Viennetta in the Bath you say? Cor Decadence! 

(apologies if this shows up twice I tried to post using the app but it's crapp!)

Daily snippet: Voyeurism

According to Blogger I have 1200 page views since I started up last year! 

Yay thanks for the visiting folks!

Yet, I've only had about 5 new subs/tweeters/likers in that time.

Such is the nature of the Internet. And blogging for that matter. Putting personal and private thoughts words out into the void of the Web and the only reciprocation is the knowledge you have been "viewed". 

Daily Snippet: Hello Ladies!

I just learned that #tombraidertuesday is totally a thing and I had no idea. So me and a whole bunch of other people on the Interwebbles decided Tuesday must be Tomb Raider day! HUZZAH! 

I know I missed it this week so to make up I'll share this Speed Run of Tomb Raider by Cirno_TV on Twitch

Daily Snippet: Fast Expulsions

I was audience to a rather amusing Xmas holiday anecdote:

'I went Dog Sledding during the holidays. It was marvelous fun however they don't tell you how smelly it is. The humans and dogs alike are loaded up and driven up to the trail, then all is unloaded and the dogs are harnessed and you're on the off! As you are in transit the dogs kick up snow and dirt, this somewhat dulls the experience as I had hard sludge hit my face. A little while later we stopped and the guide started laughing. He explained that the dogs are caged during transport and then they are straight on the harness and often relieve themselves while on the move. In hindsight, he should have told me to close my mouth....'

Truth!

I'm gonna blow your mind...

Anyone else see Zapdos, Moltres and Articuno? 

BAM!

Daily Snippet: Silent Argument

....why is it when you walk past someone everyone is silent for about 2.5 seconds then you resume your conversation EVEN though you're all still in ear shot of each others conversations BEFORE and AFTER the passing? Social etiquette baffles me. 

It even happens when folk are have full blown arguments in the street. You can hear them from a mile away and you creep past them and there's that awkward silent pause as they wait for you to pass...you hold your breath....then BLAM full battle mod activated! WHY?   

Daily Snippet: New Year Junk

The weather put us off Step Two of the New Year Project "Mobile Furnace" as in picking a suitable spot for it to go outside. Gots to build it from the ground up but we need to take apart the Autumn Project the "Rocket Stove".

It did us really proud that little thing. Even made bread and cookies in it but that's all it was good for. It was an excellent first Junk Craft project. Recycling it to make the furnace will do it justice I think. Maybe even Rocket Stove Mark II? 

Very late/early Snippet

A plan is brewing...

Daily Snippet: Chargin' mah Tank!

So every night since Boxing Day a small group of friends and I have been staying up very late to save the world from Zombies...

I, like many many people now have Left 4 Dead 2 in my Steam Library. It's rather good! Jeebus it's scary and fun and induces so much panic-rage in me I fear that *when* the Zombie infestation happens T'll try my best to be a good Zombie because I'll most likely not last as a survivor!

Daily Snippet: Top 23 of top 5 lists list!

Why is everything in list form?! Most entertainment sites we use give us their bounty in List form. Top 10 words of the week, Top 100 pictures of cats in trees, 32 ways to read small factoids with pictures so you won't forget them! Is it really the only way we can assimilate information? What's next? Will we only pay attention to the News if it's rated mundane to scandalous in a catchy rundown theme? What then if a story doesn't make at least the top 20 will it just turn into a Social Media outrage? Probably the most reliable source of news is Facebook and Twitter these days, and that's sayin' something...
