Iceberg huntingI had never thought it was necessary to shoot an iceberg to stop it escaping. You live and learn. Before you shoot them you have to shout "Freeze!" Booooo! |

Just made a nicely sized Lamb Dhansak with a kilo of leg of lamb. It will cook in the oven for three hours this afternoon before being allowed to cool. Tomorrow night I will re-heat it and scoff if it down with all the beer.

My lunch were a vegetable samosa, onion bhajee and veg pakora that were left over from Sainsbury's Indian snack selection. 4 stars. |

To update you all on my progress in Dragon Quest Builders 2, I'm very close to completing the swanky, Las Vegas-style bar with attached pool the townspeople have asked me for. I'm just a bit disappointed by the appearance of the silver bricks which are just grey and insufficiently sparkly. Speaking of bling, I still need some gold and have just been told that I need to delve deeper into the mine. I'm a bit nervous that I might eventually come across a Balrog. After all, the Balrog has been a part of Dragon Quest games in the past  I have also now invented the frying pan. This allows me to combine two ingredients, like Bunicorn steaks* and marshrooms to make a turf 'n' truff. *Bunicorns are far too cute, unlike the annoying wolves in Breath of the Wild that I used to shoot with fire arrows to turn them into seared steaks without the cooking process. |

For good reason! Bunicorn steaks increase my attack power and I need all the help I can get. What's more, one combined with a bread they make a bunny burger, which fills my hunger metre by a satisfying 80%! In any case, the bunicorn started it. |

I may have made a mistake. I was attracted to Felicity Cloake's How to make the perfect no-churn ice-cream Over the last couple of years I've being doing a calorie counting* diet** which has led to a 2 stone loss of weight, which is nice. Strangely this has led to eating lots of home cooked stuff and I hate to say "healthy.***" The above recipe is 4000 kcals**** for 1 litre, the equivalent Carte D'or is 1000 kcals. It better bloody well taste fantastic, that's all I can say. *websites and excel spreadsheets, loads of fun, no joke intended. **no calories were counted during holiday's, meals out and generally "fuck it days". ***Vegetables and fruit etc. etc. **** I know, why not just cals, but I suppose 4,000,000 calories is a bit off putting. |

A Calorie, a kilocalorie and a kcal are the same thing. A "small calorie" (cal) is 1000th of a calorie / kilocalorie.
It's a weird measurement system. Should probably swap to joules. Also, that's the easily extractable chemical energy in a food, usually through burning it. The actual amount of energy your body manages to usefully extract will vary, by person and by foodstuff.

That you don't like smart-arse know-it-alls? As long as they know what they're talking about, no or yes, I'm not sure what the answer should be. |

To clarify, smart arse "know it all's" who know what they are talking about are fine, even if they're irritating and boring.
