    Stuffing balls. They keep, they are cheap, they are easy, and are crispy balls of joy to nibble down.

    Rice crispy cakes. Yum. Not in a packet, but oh so nice. You could even mix in some quinoa to make them more nutritional.

    Cook off some dense pasta, grate parmesan on it (while hot), cool and mix in some broad beans, peas or chopped olives (any old stuff works) and olive oil and pepper. Then wrap it in cling film. Defo lasts of a few days, probably a week. Lovely cold and a carb fest.

    Men of Inspiration

    The practice or policy of acquiring full or partial control over another country, occupying it with settlers, and exploiting it economically. We don't do it so much now, but it was how the commonwealth got started. Therr is no shame in accepting the past.

    I have no point, it was just a topical question. There jas been a bit about colonialism on the news lately

    The Covid19 Thread

    It is unlike Spiegelhalter to have an unclear chart. Quite a failure.

    Wild Camping Issues

    For my man they are not irrational fears. They are day to day things that prey on his mind. Like a meeting at work or an unfinished diy thing. I think the reality and dynamic nature of them makes them more tricky to clear out.

    Wild Camping Issues

    My Guy has that too. He wakes with the birds then can't drift back off because of things that are on his mind. No amount of jelpful suggestions from me do any good. It is quite frefor him.

    Rosemary Infused Groundnut or Sunflower oil

    I think that will be the next thing to try, herb flour would be super useful and would allow for veggie rosemary dumplings. The milk infusion sounds nice too for a mousse.

    Rosemary Infused Groundnut or Sunflower oil

    Yeah, I might try that out. Maybe i could turn it into flour

    Rosemary Infused Groundnut or Sunflower oil

    I might try infusing the milk. My guy is super sensitive to mouth feel of food. He hates woody bits in the batter, so chopping is out (that is why I am trying other things)

    Rosemary Infused Groundnut or Sunflower oil

    The Yorkies were not a great success. The oil tasted of rosemary, but the flavour didn't carry arcoss. Kinda worked for carrots and potatoes, but only a bit. The flat yorky prototype shows potential, will try that again.
