I don't know what soap opera it was, because it was playing on the TV at my barber's shop while I was in the chair. A woman started shooting at some people who had disappointed her. Just livin' the dream.

I've been finding it useful for altering recipes to take my wife's allergies into account. I don't use it for much else. And certainly not for anything important.

I bet Jörmungandr the world-serpent, who gnaws at the roots of Yggdrasil-tree, destined to kill and be killed by Thor, tastes like chicken.

The part I repeat to myself most often is "blessed are the peace-makers". Because there are so many situations where I shouldn't say what I'm thinking. :)

~~Because we have a flag~~ because everyone benefits from the effort to learn about and educate about ancient cultures. We presume that even those cultures benefit, because the memory of them is preserved instead of being forgotten.

Digging up artefacts for private collections, though - that's just grave robbery with a shine on it.

I've been confused about it in the past, but I eventually settled on mould if it grows and mold if it's taking shape. I'm willing to let the rest of the internet be wrong about it, though.

What's my prize if I answer correctly?

Clicking on a URL in a non-browser app? Surely you want to see that in Edge and not your default browser.

Riker without the beard looks like the kind of guy who would steal people's lunches from the office fridge.

This is gonna be controversial.

When I find out someone is a Christian, I ask them about their favourite part of the sermon on the mount. If they don't know it, they're 'cultural Christians' who've never opened a bible. If they're familiar with the sermon, it means they do the work. The sermon on the mount is the section of the bible where Jesus explained to people what values they should hold and how they should behave in order to call themselves his followers.

I'm an ex-Christian and so are a lot of people who just don't know it yet.

 

I'm sharing this because any reduction in unnecessary packaging waste is good for the planet - and because I think laser-etching avocados is funny. 🙂

 

I followed a Jaime Oliver recipe for curry, which started with grating onion, ginger and garlic. I liked the curry, but grating an onion is a miserable job. He said that technique unlocked the onion's 'sweetness'. How much difference do you think I'd notice if I used a food processor?

I noticed that one of the monitors in the loom control room had "SKIN?" written on it in the dust that covered it. It seemed pretty mysterious and I was sure it was a detail that was going to be important, but it never came up as far as I noticed. Any theories as to what it's about?

 

I've been on a cosmic horror kick lately, and what I'd really like to read is stories or novels of the awful and unfathomable on a spaceship. Stories where we go to them, poke what shouldn't be poked, scan what shouldn't be scanned, and things proceed from there.

Ingredients:

  • 1 can chickpeas
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 180g/6.5oz halloumi cheese
  • 2 heaped tbsp garam masala powder
  • 1/2 tsp vegetable stock

Method:

  1. Cube the halloumi and set it aside.
  2. Mix all remaining ingredients together in a saucepan and place on the heat. Allow to come to a simmer, stirring frequently.
  3. Mix in the halloumi and stir until heated through but not melting.
  4. Remove from heat and serve with rice.

I learned this recipe from a couple of vegetarian friends who eat it twice a week because it's cheap, easy and packed with protein. There's no need to add salt, the masala powder seasons it nicely.
