A Very Brief Encounter

Image
I got on the Overground yesterday and the man I sat next to promptly, and rather bizarrely, got up and moved one seat away. He then leant across the vacant seat between us and said somewhat poignantly; ‘It’s better this way.’ I smiled sadly and said; ‘We’ll always have Peckham.’

British Beauty Blogger Review of Tipsy Social Blah Blah

Image
Roullier White exclusive Smell Bent's sensational and very seasonal scent, Tipsy Social Blah Blah, reviewed by the British Beauty Blogger. "Yes, you read it right! The new fragrance from Smell Bent is Tipsy Social Blah Blah – an amazing and tantalizing name for an amazing and tantalizing fragrance. Imagine a night out with your best girlfriends, a cocktail of plum, rose and cedarwood – oh, and a dash of Merlot – all blended into a riot of fragrant notes with an edge of cocktails.

Although a Victorian name, the notion of stuffing meat and fish goes back to Roman times, when it was first documented. Wrongly presuming stuffing to be a uniquely British dish, I quizzed my continental colleagues. Roberta Cattaneo joyfully gave me her father’s favourite stuffed turkey recipe. Wash and dry a 4 to 5kg turkey inside and outside – remembering to remove the giblets which are usually in a bag inside. Take 1kg of roasted and peeled chestnuts, 300g dried prunes - soaked overnight in a mixture of water and white wine - 300g of diced Italian sausage, and 2 peeled, finely sliced, pears. Brown 100g butter in a pan, then add all the ingredients and stir until you get uniform dough. Stuff the turkey and sew with string. Put the turkey in a roasting tray with high edges with 150g bu
