Our usually house-bound Cat jumped out of our bathroom window today then disappeared for a lengthy eight hours. Thankfully, she eventually turned up in one piece.

Although we don’t exactly see eye-to-eye, I sort of missed her… a bit… sort of…

“For me, history is created by stuff happenin’ on it…Things are only good, if stuffs happenin’ onnit. Why are they knockin’ golf balls about if there’s really important stuff to look at? You don’t see people in museums going “Fancy avin’ a knock, eh knock some golf balls about now lookin’ at this vase. A’right, that’s interestin’!” But on the moon, nothing! Nothin’ to look at!

We’ve decided to analyze the valuable lessons about technology contained within the most educational material that we as a society have ever produced: Hollywood films. Today’s lesson: The Net, the most harrowing mid-’90s Sandra Bullock thriller that did not involve a bus, beauty pageant or cruise ship.

Making Blinding Cup of Tea

Wed, 19 Sep 2012 08:35:00 +0100

It’s easy to make a shit tea. Believe me… I’ve had plenty. The good news is though, with a little bit of love and a smidgen of patience, it’s just as easy to make a absolute blinder.

Making a blinding cup of tea

Firstly, boil the kettle. It’s important to always boil fresh, cold water – reboiling water takes the oxygen out and can give your mug of tea a slightly metallic taste and will impair the flavour.

While the kettle boils, place one fresh tea bag in a clean mug. I recommend PG Tips Pyramids for a good every-day tea.

Once the kettle has boiled fully, gently pour the freshly boiled water in to the mug directly over the tea bag — this helps the tea bag to inflate, allowing the tea to infuse effectively.

Allow the tea to brew for three to four minutes, stirring once, gently. Remove the tea bag from the mug squeezing it once, gently.

If desired, sweeten with sugar, stirring gently – although tea is always best without sugar!

Add a splash of milk. It’s important to add this after the boiling water, to avoid scalding the fats in the milk.

Stir gently, serve and enjoy.

Ingredients

plain chocolate (400g)
butter (125g)
golden syrup (40g)
digestive biscuits (10)
maltesers (100g)
pink & white marshmallows (a handful)
desiccated coconut (a handful)
chocolate shavings or sprinkles

Recipe

1. Break up the cholocate into small pieces. Place into a glass bowl over simmering water with the butter and syrup to melt gently. Stir occasionally.

2. Roughly smash up the biscuits into pieces. Mix the biscuits with the maltesers, marshmallows and coconut.

3. Line a suitably deep baking tray with cling film while the chocolate is melting (this prevents the chocolate from sticking).

4. Once the chocolate has melted fully, take off the heat and leave for 60 seconds before pouring in the biscuits, marshmallows and coconut. Mix well.

5. Pour mixture into film-lined baking tray, making sure it spreads evenly. Leave to stand for 5 minutes, sprinkle on chocolate shavings/sprinkles, then place into fridge for 3-4 hours (or alternatively, the freezer for 30-40 minutes to speed things up a bit).

6. Tip it out onto a flat surface, removing the cling film. Cut into chunky pieces using a large sharp knife. Lightly dust with icing sugar.

Keep refrigerated until served.

Cooked Moussaka from memory from a recipe I saw on Masterchef Australia a couple of weeks ago. Tasted incredible.

EDIT: I’ve since found the recipe on George Calombaris’ website. It says to use Lamb, Pork and Veal mince, but I just used Lamb mince.
