Gastronomia III
It’s been a very long three months. At first, my thyme and basil looked like they were dying. Then, they started to flourish, which was when snails and other bugs decided to eat them to buggery. Straight after that, they … Continue reading
Herb growing, day one
Let’s be honest. I had, and possibly still have, no idea what I’m doing. What do I know about growing herbs? I’m almost ashamed to admit that all I have learnt about it, I looked up on the internet (and … Continue reading
Mayday, mayday, (S)FTP is going down
SFTP and FTP users of blogger will no longer be able to do so. So says the powers that be, they’ve (almost ironically) created a blog to the matter, Blogger FTP info. While I didn’t necessarily mind initially, reading up … Continue reading

Warm plates II
