I just finished a book I won't name, because if you can't say something nice... Still, around two third of the book, I thought, 'We're not going there, aren't we?' We did go there. There are two types of story endings I don't ever want to see: 'It was all a dream' & 'It was all in his head.'

For sale now, only at the Bald Satan Shop, unfortunately - and 'thanks' to scandalous Amazon blackmail, I had to make the books more expensive: $8.17 for the paperback and $3.50 for the ebook. #Booksky #NewBook

I was just looking at a promising recipe, when *that* line hit my eye again: 'Remove from the pan and set aside.' As in the reasonable alternative being: 'Remove from the pan and throw straight in the bin'? It's not a serious gripe, obviously, but really. #Foodsky #Recipes

We have two straight men in the restaurant, and one of the ways I know they're straight is they're sitting diagonally from each other at a 4-person table

I tested out an interesting-looking recipe. Technically an appetiser but I had it for dinner with a cucumber salad: foodmymuse.com/stracciatell... It's really good. #Appetiser #ItalianFood #Ciabatta #Breadsky

'Tis the season to take all the logs outside again, and to start the soot-clearing of the living room; especially the big fern, since its leaves are covered with the dust of ashes. As is the small bookcase and that small cupboard in the kitchen. I'm late this year because laziness. #SpringClean

I don't know what he thinks he'll find up there. (I think I'll call him Musk.)
