I have been revisiting my old midi files from my the early days of music composing and upon seeing the release of FLStudio 21 it inspired me to look at this software again and see what I can do with my old midi, this is what I quickly remixed -> Sahara

Well it all started on a blistering summer morn, I took it upon myself to take my usual constitutional into work. I was in a merry mood but a little tired as I was communicating into the early hours with a wondrous but very strange lady. My path was clear, a gentle wind gently rocked the palm trees as I strode onwards with purpose. But then, a shape emerged from an adjacent street, it was a forboding looming figure, a dark silhouette moving with purpose and swagger.

Here is a christmas calendar for my beautiful girlfriend in honour of one of our favourite shows!

Here is a christmas calendar I have been working on for a work quiz which is starting to become a yearly tradition! This years theme is doors showing scenes from computer hacking in movies:

Yes I know the title is somewhat disquieting, shocking even, it wasn’t deliberate, its just an honest opinion and of course I shall explain why. Sport can be exciting at times, exhilarating even, but this is often not the norm, often it is tedious, boring and a grind. Of course a perfectly formed athlete can be marvelled for their own sake, the honed body of a physical specimen, a freak of genetics put through a lifetime of training.

Ok, sleep hygiene, these are the things I do to have at least a modicum amount of rest, I don’t sleep much anyway, but I’m not too bothered as everyone needs a different amount, the fabled 8 hours that everyone should get is BS : No ipad / mobile phone / computer usage late at night. Now this rule I flout but only because I use filters to block out the blue light, if you have an ipad it should kick in automatically, hence you will notice the orange tint.

Four minutes they say!, they are just around the corner!, ready, set, go!, the phone call is terminated and what ensues is a mad dash around the house. Well mad isn’t quite the applicable term anymore, it is now more of a practiced execution of known steps, repeated already this year a measly 15 times. Firstly the central heating needs to be ignited, throw it up to 10 degrees hotter then hell!

My girlfriend has a tube coming out of her nose. Well to be more precise, her right nostril. “so why did you choose the right one?” I ask “because it is my favourite nostril”, she astutely replies. I don’t particularly have a favourite nostril, or have ever given it much thought. Having a girlfriend with an NJ tube makes me consider, and yes I think I agree, the right nostril is also my favourite.

www.seattleite.com Hang on a cotton picking second…wasn’t it July literally yesterday? How has December managed to swoop in with such stealth that none of us noticed until it was sitting in our laps? As we all gear up for Christmas, Jew’s the world over have been making preparations for Hanukkah (which has actually been and gone now since it landed on the 8th of December this year). If like me, you’re a total ignoramus whose knowledge of Hanukkah stretches as far as the Friends episode in which Ross dresses up as a giant armadillo, here is the very rough and very short version of the story of Hanukkah.

Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day, but lets face it during the week nobody has the time or the inclination to fanny about cooking up an elaborate breakie. So come the weekend its always nice to pull your finger out and make a bit more of effort. This was a bit of a spur of the moment thing, I only had a basic recipe which I changed and embellished and this was the fruits of my labour, or not as the case may be as its a super quick and really easy recipe with loads of ways you can customise it to your tastes.

Pumpkins. As a nation us Brits probably only encounter a pumpkin when Halloween rolls round and even then I doubt many of us eat the innards after we’ve finished hacking a face into one. I know Pumpkin Pie is a Thanksgiving staple in the U.S but we don’t have anything like that here and I think a lot of people are a bit daunted about where to start with a pumpkin and what to do it, and most of the time pumpkins are generally bigger than the International Space Station and unless you have a meat cleaver it’s a bit of a battle trying to slice them to bits.

I’ve got to be honest and say I’m not keen on traditional X-mas desserts like Figgy Pudding, and since I became chef de jour at casa de Jeffs the responsibility has fallen to me to do the pud for Christmas day, and the past few years it has gone well (although we shan’t mention the disaster with a Jamie yule log recipe…I’m still bitter). Last year I made these Eggnog creams and they were yummy and not massively heavy either which you don’t want when your so full to bursting with turkey and ’tatoes that you couldn’t even wedge a sprout in.

Can you tell I’m starting to run out of adjectives for my recipe posts? The recipe can be used to make mulled wine or cider, although please forgive me for having not tried it with cider since even mentioning the word cider brings back haunting memories of my first ever escapade into alcohol at 13 which resulted in much barfing and eventually being picked up by my dad after my friends exhausted their combined powers of patience and nursing care as as I lay gagging in a bush.

I’m usually the sort of person who is repelled by fruit in salads, or nuts in curries or any of that other faff. Its like drinking a pint of water when you need a wee, it goes against the grain. But saying all that my dad made this marvelous little salad from the September issue of Delicious magazine (which if you don’t read you should since it’s awesome) and after I tinkered about with it and made it to my liking, I thought I’d shove it (belatedly) up on here for you to have a butchers at.

Another new feature I’ve dragged out for the depths of my imagination (which, judging by my groundbreaking titles is more like a puddle than a never ending abyss of creativeness). As you probably gathered from the highly innovative concept, each edition will feature one ingredient used two different ways. The two recipes featured here came about after I was sent the Dietary Specials new recipe Shortcrust Pastry. I must preface this now by saying this is NOT a sponsored post, I just really love this product.

This is the first edition of one of my new features Speedy Sides (racked my brains to think of that title didn’t I?). The name speaks for itself, each edition will be a super quick and easy dish which will work great as a perfect side,with, or as an addition to a main meal (Depending on whether you eat for England or enjoy mini meals). Ingredients 700g New potatoes 100g Radishes 100g Half fat creme fresh (or you can use full fat if your already bikini ready!

We all know by now that I am a total lemon slut. I love anything with/near/like lemon and as a result I perhaps post more lemon recipes than any other. I had promised that I wouldn’t do anymore lemon containing recipes for a while, but after I converted this one from the The Hummingbird Bakery book I knew it was far too yummy not to post it on here (despite it being a doppelganger of one I posted last year)
