Some Relevant Recipe Changes
Posted a year agoPrimarily my dishes that involve Beef, so my Lasagne, Cottage Pie, Chilli and Bolognese Recipes.
The change being I'm no longer draining the fat/liquid when I'm frying the beef. Instead I've started cooking the beef for an extra five or so minutes so the liquid evaporates. This brings out much more flavour. Something I've learned and practiced from watching Marco Pierre White compilations. Good stuff.
I've also halved the sugar content in my Lemonade recipe and upped the batch to 1.5L. No major impact to flavour. A little less sweet, but it gives the Lemon some room to shine.

More Towards My Recent Watchers
Posted a year agoThank you for slinging a Watch my way, I find it easier to thank the handful of you via Journal instead of on each of your individual pages
I hope you enjoy whatever you're here for, whether it's
- My Cooking
- My Pixel Art
- My, uh...'Less Than Wholesome' Art...
I can only promise to be inconsistent as all hell in the future as I struggle with
- Absolute Nihilism
- Cooking Inspiration
- Drawing Inspiration
- A World We're Set On Destroying

Against My Better Judgement...
Posted a year agoI now have a BlueSky (I like to call it 'Bliskee'), username Sabs The Soup
Q - Sabs, what led you to do such a thing?
A - ...Uhh..........
Q - Is there any point in following you on Bliskee?
A - Probably not! I only plan on sharing recipes and cooking on there, all of which goes on my FA, first thing!
Q - Then why???
A - I honestly wanted to see if the grass was greener (blue-er?) on the other side. And literally the first post I saw was someone telling a group of people to...how should I put this...'self-terminate'? So it looks like I was right in believing that the failings of Social Media comes down to people, not platform.
Fun Times Ahead!

Posted 2 years agoOh, uhhhhh think of something think of something
- I turned thirty, so Zoomers are already getting my grave ready. Very fun.
- I've been having a 'leave of employment' since September. Yeah, turns out three 12-16hr shifts a week with barely a half-hour's break in total isn't good for your physical and mental state. God, I would just love to spend most of my day cooking or baking at my own pace and getting paid a living wage for it.
- No car. I was paying out the nose for my insurance and my car was having an (expensive) problem, so my local garage took it off my hands for a more-than-fair price.
- I should draw more. More different things than anything. Pixel-y stuff and smaller pieces are comfy, if something takes me more than a week I run the risk of losing interest.
- I should cook more. Had a 'break' these past few weeks, time to get back in the kitchen.

I Should Do A Lasagne Recipe...
Posted 2 years agoBut where would I even start?
Oh god, I hope I still have a Lasagne pic lying around somewhere on my laptop
I really don't wanna have to make a fresh Lasagne anytime soon
Oh god, is Italy going to be upset with me?
Quick, someone play the first 40 seconds of Claire De Lune on repeat!

I Should Do Some Savoury Recipes
Posted 2 years agoBut where would I even start?
A lot of my lunches and dinners I just eyeball the contents of
Even soup!
"Yeah, that looks like the right amount, I guess. Let's get cookin'."
And it always works

Faving random Art to promote yourself
Posted 3 years agoHad a weird encounter this week. Had a bunch of faves on my sketches. From the same person, sure, and that put me in a good mood for the night.
Couple of days passed, the same guy does the same thing again. So I decide to check their page out, leave a thank you.
Turns out their gallery is all YCH's and Reminders thereof.
Checked their favorites to see if I'm there (because I have an egotistical side I struggle with) aaand there are no favorites there at all. So they basically 'fave' and unfave people's art as a way of poking potential buyers.
Yeah mate, we can all see what you're doing. Better ways to do your business.
