He's not letting on, but the grass whispers to him as well. The trees don't need to know that though.

Hey that's far out man...

Stuff ready prepped for tonight's dinner, photoshoot done, props found for tomorrow's photoshoot and beers delivered to my neighbour.

Lunch calls shortly, then I do need to fill the wood bins in the house. With the spate of chilly evenings and the weather that's coming in later in the week, I don't want to be caught on the hop.

I don't suppose you would care to share the method for making the bhajis and make a fellow curry addict very happy ?

Your wish is my command.

1 large onion, sliced
2 goodly-sized carrots (or equivalent thereof), grated
1 heaped teaspoon ground cumin
1 heaped teaspoon garam masala
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon kalonji seeds
1/4 teaspoon salt
generous grind of black pepper

Mix that lot together and let it stand for a little while. Then add...

190g self-raising flour
1 cup of either plain yoghurt or buttermilk
Just enough water to make a stiff batter

Take a small to medium (but deep) frying pan and pour in vegetable oil to a finger's depth. Heat the oil, and when a small dollop of batter sizzles and crisps up immediately, the oil is hot enough. Fry in dessert spoon sized dollops, turning the bhajis halfway through. When done, remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.

Top tip: Cool the remaining oil, reserve in a jar and keep in the fridge. Use either for another batch of bhajis or use it to fry paste for another curry.

Quite a few "boys" would agree with that sentiment

Oh dear, here we go. Workshop Porn.

Me, I'd just like a bench.

Puttered about this morning doing various things. The mysterious puddle on the utility room floor was down to carrots. Fresh ones I bought the other day, and they're already rotting. I hate wasting food, but into the green bin they've gone.

Newly-emptied green wheelie bin - because of the bank holiday, they've come a day early here. Fortunately I remembered to put it out last night.

I also want a refund on the weather forecast. I definitely did not order nearly an inch of rain in the space of half an hour.

Can I have some of your rain?

 

[PeteXXX]

I've been sent to Coventry

Bins brought in, one by the binman!
