A New Dishwasher (and a few games along the way)
We’re gearing up for Christmas, a process that is in no way enhanced by having to deal with a broken dishwasher. The problem with having a lot of stuff on is the lack of time to write about it. I have managed to squeeze in some games though. Neon White Part of the beauty of…

Baking and Caking
When life gives you, or rather, doesn’t give you yeast, make sourdough. I have been on and off sourdough since encountering it in Von’s 1000Spirits in Seattle in 2012.

Lofty Ideals (or Ideal Lofts?)
The “I finally got round to insulating the loft” edition. The previous owners of our house did a wonderful job making the downstairs look nice, but corners were cut elsewhere and basic jobs that should have been tackled early were ignored. Energy prices are officially insane, and having a weedy 100mm of compressed wool insulation
