my double digging is a thing to behold you know... there's a certificate somewhere to prove it... how's about a week of gardening inspirations ?

crepe


woke up this morning thinking about those suede thick crepe souled laceups all the dapper plaid shirted turned up levised argyle socked black and white genuine plukoed sorts trolled about the towns of my youth in and wandered where they'd gone and why i've not seen any for such a long while. the shoes not the sorts. i see them often thankfully. although come to think of it not the ones who favoured said footwear. hmmmmmm...

anways...

this has been hummed tunelessly as i've wandered...

jeanne hatfield - stop

soul food


it's second sitting time over at cooking up a quiet storm and i've gone and pinched the head chef's bright idea from last time and spelled out a favourite dish... cheese on toast oh cheese on toast  i could very happily live on cheese on toast for the rest of my days well the days before the resulting cholesterol fueled heart attack but you know what i mean... any melted cheese on pretty much anything frankly. or under for that matter. beans preferably. but on toast with tomatoes and franks red hot sauce for total perfection...

you'll find tunes like this...


and the whole thing and a whopping lot more at cooking up a quiet storm
