I buy them from time to time. I eat them straight from the jar with a bit of rye bread to catch the juice.

I think that @BumblingAlong might have had a snowboard brand in mind. https://www.jumalautasnowboards.fi/?srsltid=AfmBOoqLL7MVUjeMYrD7jOw86bxBVXAIa2e3X4BvaQYcn422BDDQGQ5Z

I was in child in the 1970s and can just about remember the power cuts, bread shortages, fuel oil shortages (closed my junior school for what felt like a month, that winter). That and the constant reminders of the ever present threat of nuclear war... Then occasional problems like a broken...

I think that people who think "just another Chinese generic producer" will be interested the price and the "look". And if the price is low enough and it looks fashionable, they will buy. I know that I'm certainly not in that population and probably on a statistically insignificant part of the...

While the outside of your pan with soap before cooking over pine or other resinous wood, so today clean-up is less difficult.

Come back when you break the barrier of 9000. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It%27s_Over_9000!

You don't **** on your own doorstep. When your doorstep is the shop or bank where to beg to get a bit of change for something to eat, I suppose you go elsewhere.

I found it more deliberately ambiguous... Who was terrified? Magellan, the people who financed the expedition, the crew members, the autochthonous populations?

A lesson that my dad's oldest friend, who would spend every Saturday afternoon between the betting shop and the pub across the road, gave me: only play with money that you can afford to lose.

My mother used to cook what she called "Austrian baked cabbage". Take a white or Savoy cabbage and halved it vertically. Over the flat side, sprinkle caraway seeds; pull the sides to open the spaces between the leaves so that the seeds get inside. Spread some butter on the flat side. Put...

It struck me, too... It's emotional marketing: call your brand by a word that evokes feelings of community, warmth, friendliness.

I stopped using Dropbox... I'd been using it for several years, had perhaps a hundred photos on there plus a few dozen PDF files, when Dropbox decided that to change its terms of service. According to the new terms of service I had exceeded the volume of data that I was allowed to store...

I went into Paris yesterday afternoon and on the way back stopped off in town and picked up some more cans. Among them, two differently prepared cans of cuttlefish. On the left, pieces of squid (Illex coindetii) in spicy American sauce (sunflower oil, tomato, onion, chilli pepper, spices)...

That friend who was over on Sunday started to sleep. In Monday morning we were talking about making coffee and she mentioned having a "briki", the word that Greeks use for what I described earlier as "cevze", made from some some sort of ceramic; she's worried that heating it in a gas flame will...

Tells me that I need to ask the file owner to grant access.

And today, for your edification and my delectation, I present another two cans of mackerel in Catalan sauce. The cans are printed the right way up. Once opened, a nicely coloured sauce, one of them with a little bit more oil on the surface. Each can contains two very nice, firm, meaty...

I think that it depends a lot on what the land is like, the soil, slope of the land, exposure, and how much time you want to put into planting and pruning. Blackthorn grows easily and quickly and will give you sloes for sloe gin and winemaking. It grows well where I live, on very sandy soil...

A friend came round on Sunday afternoon. I saw her at her flat the previous weekend. She showed me a piece of copper pipe that's part of a lamp she had hanging from the ceiling; it was too long, people bumped their heads against the lamp, so she cut out a section of the pipe to shorten it and...

I love duck and goose eggs, but they are impossible to find around where I live.

I cooked some pieces of chicken today. Bought on Friday, I separated the thighs from the drumsticks and took out the bones from the thighs on Saturday, mixed some Madras curry powder and pimenton de la vera in some Greek yoghurt and put the thighs in that in a glass dish in the fridge...
