Buon Weekend
It’s Saturday morning. Time for the traditional weekend post, but don’t expect any recipes today. (I did bookmark a great recipe blog though. Somewhere.)

Arrived back in Basel. To discover that it’s still winterly cold here. I’m living in a fridge… I enjoyed my 3 week stay in Blantyre, where I surprisingly still feel at home. As if I never left. Even though much has changed. My own descriptions of Europe sounded faraway and unreal. But a visit is… Continue reading i’m living in a fridge…

A very clever mongrel: If the gate was closed, she’d run up to the gate and bark and provoke the… Continue reading Watch dogs in Lilongwe

To get rid of some ripe and mushy bananas*, I decided to bake some banana bread today. What I usually do is mix up a basic cake butter and then add 2-3 bananas to the batter. Today has been one big experiment ‘cos I didn’t have some of the ingredients. And I still don’t have… Continue reading banana bread experiment
Rhetorical question of the day …
What would computing be without progress bars? I spent this weekend re-configuring my Ubuntu installation. It’s been about 6 months since I moved from Windows and I’m more than happy with Ubuntu and the Gnome desktop. I may try out Kubuntu sometime. Or try setting up an Ubuntu server. I’m still a newbie user but… Continue reading Rhetorical question of the day …
