I went on a sentimental journey to Double Bay (where I used to shop 43 years ago) and came across a fabulous place called Bake Bar, an organic artisan bakery/cafe, where I had lunch and brought home a loaf of their mixed grain sourdour, the most delicious bread I have ever tasted.
While I was looking for their website to get a photo to put here, I opened a link that Nahim (Lina's brother) had sent me, about a chef in England who habitually wiped his bum with his bare hand, then prepared meals for the customers. You've probably guessed it was in the Daily Mail and from there I came across the above pic. I won't bother mentioning names, except to say they are from Australia's Most Embarrassing Family.
Just shows how easily distracted I am! Reading the Daily Mail must be one of the most depressing things anyone can do! Just how sick is society!
Winifred, a Thermomix is a cult thing, so I'm told, which makes me a bit uncomfortable as nobody could be further from being influenced by anything cult-like than me. But two minutes into the demonstration had me wanting to buy one and I just love it. You can mix, chop, knead, simmer, steam, melt - and a thousand other things with the one gadget. (Well, it has several add-ons, which means it's not really just one gadget.)
2,498 emails. Looking back, that's just one less than last time. Since I keep getting new ones every day I doubt I'll ever get down to a reasonable number. Yes, I do have a firewall - this total is simply the stuff I get from friends + a teaching reading network I belong to. Ancestry brings in lots, too.
