I love to bake bread after a bad day, all the aggression works well into that dough!

Our first date was at the cinema, we went to see Zoolander. When I got there she looked at her watch and said β€œYour late”. I knew from that moment she wore the trousers. I got her addicted to babylon5 and all the startreks, and we’d watch WWE religiously lol. Laura was everything, love you babe xx

…the elder scrolls. Her favourite word and used lovingly was c*nt, don’t ask it just worked. Tomorrow would have been our 21st wedding anniversary, I knew from the moment I laid eyes on her I was going to marry her, I remember telling my sister as she worked at the same place, I’m gonna marry her.

Tomorrow is five years since my wife and best friend in the entire world passed away. I remember it like it was yesterday, but I was so happy that she went in my arms and I was the last person she saw.
Laura was the most patient woman, she loved me, we laughed, played tabletop, and she adored…

I can live a normal life again, yes I’ll be poorly all my life, but cooking made it so my schizophrenia no longer owned me. Sorry bit deep apologies.

I love to bake, I don’t feel the guilt when I make it myself, I love homemade bread, & if I want a pizza I prep two days before for the perfect dough

…finishing with butter and honey to caramelise the pineapple.

I batch cook healthy meals, cooking literally saved my life, changed it completely. Before I taught myself how to cook I was 22stone, my mental health was at a point where I would be hospitalised again. Cooking changed everything….

This is the recipe I created. I use an air fryer to act like tandoor oven, which works a treat on the marinaded chicken. Recently though I’ve incorporated more fruits into my curries, complementing the coconut milk and desiccated coconut, I can pan nice and hot and seared my pineapple then…

Looks tasty, tomorrow I’m cooking up a few Ethiopian dishes, super tasty, healthy but carry a kick. Sneaking veg into dishes is a secret skill of mine for people who claim they don’t like veg!

My sweet chana masala with caramelised pineapple I did yesterday as a batch cook, super healthy

Managed to get my hands on the missing #babylon5 novels, plus a security manual for the station and 2 guides to the vehicles and weapons & technology of #starwars. Boxtree always did the best books in the 90s!

Question for my gaming followers, who plays #Hardspaceshipwrecker? I’ve played this for sometime and for some reason i really fancied booting it back up. I also forgot the difficulty, hard learning curve and controlling in zero G, but god dam this game is a diamond and one I recommend you all play

Thanks loz, I’m gonna go to her grave in the morning and then have lunch with my mother and father in law as I’ve not seen them in such a long time. I find it so hard still and I’ve never moved on, she was my one and no one will ever be able to replace her or fill the void she left behind x

I always wondered if anyone wanted the recipes lol. It’s hard price to pay, and I won’t like the seven stages of grief is kinda πŸ’©. Those seven stages are a constant everlasting circle, but I do my best every day

Marinated tandoori chicken, in a medium heat sauce with chickpeas and pineapple which I air fried then toast in butter & honey finished in toasted almonds. It took two hours to cook this but worth every second. I took one portion to my neighbour upstairs to say thank you for bringing the bins in.

Friday would have been our 21st wedding anniversary also, so I need to keep busy. I’ve started the day by cleaning my entire flat, a full deep clean. Then I played some Minecraft with some interesting mods. Then I made this wonderful curry.

I apologise for the lack of gaming posts, but here’s more food to make up for it. Today’s my first day off of my week I’ve taken. This weeks not an easy one, on Friday it’ll be 5 years since Laura passed away.

To be honest that’s all it needs, polish up the effects a little. We don’t need remakes all the time. There’s so many stories out there I want fresh ones, don’t try and remake a classic only to ruin it

I’m already on season 4 of #babylon5 again. I love this show, I know this will always be a yearly ritual. I remember when there was conversations about this being remade, but honestly as much as we have access to better special effects, but I can’t imagine anyone being better than the original cast

Ok this has to be the scariest spawn point I’ve ever had in a #minecraft map. Since dropping off the highest point I’ve fallen, I’ve been hunted by way too many mobs, and killed twice by polar bears!!!!!!!!

My final batch cook. 10 portions of a very hot but sweet curry with coconut tandoori chicken, chickpeas & dates. This curry is about a 2 hour cook time, super healthy & tastes incredible.
