…. of 2009.
- Horseradish. I took up eating this root in a big way. I put it on my sandwiches, on my potatoes, on cheese, on oatcakes & salmon. Also extended my wasabi (wasabi is just foreign-ish for horseradish) intake, in particular wasabi peas. Fortunately I have stomach of ox so can wolf loads of horseradish with no ill effect. This news just in: plan to grow a horseradish in my garden next year.
- Spotify. OMG it’s the best thing ever to happen to music since the iPod was invented. I even took out a subscription and can now download tunes to my iPhone and computa. I love Spotify.
- Talking of the iPhone …. the iPhone. It’s the best!
- Oysters. love them. Love them. LOVE them. But not a dozen. That’s too many and can cause the drastic-gastric.
- Lochinver. It’s North. It’s restful. And the sun always shines there except when it rains and when it snows.
- Le Chef obviously. Well I have to say that, don’t I? Although he has not extended his skills to include oyster and horseradish preparations. He will need to improve me thinks.
- No more Mr George Dubya Bush. Who?
- Appellation Wines, the new wine shop near my house. It has Cremant d’Alsace, the official Nectar of The Gods. Crement d’Alsace is the new prosecco (and prosecco was previously the new cava, which itself was the new champagne).
- Prezi for presentations. I’m always trying to make my presentations better. Prezi helps one escape shackles of PowerPoint or at least teach a different way to do things. Beware of making audience puke due to over use of zoom-i-fication tho’.
- Initial weed to veggie patch deployment of garden. Having retired the allotment, grew tonnes of potatoes in my garden and a gladioli. Next year further fine vegetable will be grown. Mibe.
