We had Chinese takeaway (sorry, Lanna) cos it’s my last night before flying out. I was being all considerate and didn’t ask my in laws for a lift cos it’s early but my bus got cancelled late this afternoon so I’m being chauffeured!

Japanese Style Miso & Ginger Slow Roasted Duck Legs Recipe · Gressingham Slow‑roasted duck legs glazed in a rich miso, ginger and honey sauce for a deep umami flavour and sticky finish. Delicious with rice and cucumber salad.

Pretty much altho I am trying not to eat anything too spicy or rich. I got away with the duck! So I reckon I’m about 95% there and that’ll do 🥰 We used this recipe for the duck:

We had slow cooked duck legs (Asian flavours), sushi rice and quick pickled cucumber. Chocolate. Delicious.

Actually I’m wrong, I have been there! I was getting confused with somewhere else! But I haven’t been to the deli, butcher or health food shop so I need a return trip

I’ve never been to Lechlade! TH Burroughs is a recent discovery for us and I’m pretty sure they do pies 🥰

@karmawall.bsky.social You mentioned a pie from the butcher on one of Alanna’s threads - which butcher? 🧐

Happy to report that I’ve turned a corner! I’ve had real food and lived to tell the tale. Especially enjoyed roasted chicken thighs, jacket potatoes and stir-fry for dinner 🥰

That looks epic! I’m in awe of what you cook day in, day out.

URGENT: We need help to pay $13,000 in vet bills so we can keep rescuing cats and kittens Please donate

I know, I know. Everyone is in desperate need right now, but our rescue needs some help paying vet bills.

The benefit is, if you're in the US, our bills are in AUD and the exchange rate is very much in your favour! Please throw us $5?

New Jersey. I bought new Covid tests but I’m the same - only ever lost taste due to Covid 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’ll check again.

I checked last week and it was negative. You’ve made me think I should check again. I need to be better asap as I’m flying to the States on Thursday to see my brother & dad 🤞

I lost my appetite mid-week along with some kind of stomach bug and I’m still not hungry! I am tolerating meal replacement drinks so I’m not withering away but I am so fed up with it, especially after losing my sense of taste just last week!
