Me? Not purist about cooking! Never going to happen.

I did find a type that went crispy once, the downside is Albert Heijn or any other supermarket for that matter have no consistency whatsoever in what they stock.

I use a mix of duck fat and whatever else is left over from the last roast, par boil the spuds, then rough them up to break up the outside, and place them in the pre-heated fat.

Ah; I add a little bit of flour with a pinch of mustard powder; not purist at all, but as I said, you have to do what works with cloggy produce.

I'll be growing my own next year, so won't have to worry about that!

Morning all.



Another dark depressing morn, not improved by me waking up at 3:50 & taking ages to go back to sleep.

First time in ages, I got a decent nights sleep

I suspect the poor sleep was due to my not working my nuts off on the lawn prep yesterday.

In other news, the bit I seeded last week is now sprouting a bit.



I look forward to the first cut.

Off down town now, first to sit with the hoi polloi, then off to B&Q to buy stuff & work out if this cooker hood thing will fit.

If so I'll be back down there with the car to buy it & the extraction kit.

The core drill to put the hole through the wall is about £60.

Oh you will; perhaps because the country's so flat and the ground's soggy, the spuds seem to have more liquid than in other places. Maybe you can grow them in raised beds.

I'm building raised beds, but not for the spuds, they'll be grown in spud bags.

We've actually got some good soil in the garden that drains well and is a good mix of clay and sand.

I now have my weekly meeting with line manager who doesn't like me and will spend the next hour telling me what I have done wrong, even if I haven't done anything wrong
