baking



 I have learnt something new about computer connectivity, I found out yesterday that you can use your mobile as a hotspot to connect your tablet, I am surprised it has taken so long for me to learn this, it will be uselful with the lap top I will be able to use the laptop away from the house wifi.

I have recently started to bake cakes, i have learning to in the cooking class and its amazing thta such nice things can be made from the ingredients, there are some interesting techniques in the creative process too, such as making sure the certain combinations are mixed together to the right Consistency. When making a sponge you need to mix the butter and the sugar into a creamy pale mix so that air is put into it so that it's a bit more spongy The teacher did tell me a couple of other things but I forgotten them. I think I have a sweet tooth and that's why I enjoy making cakes

I discovered a new cake the other day ginger cake it's a lot easier to make than the other cakes due to its being cooked in a different technique but it still tastes really nice I will have to have a go at making one again. The other day I tried to make a carrot cake with vegetable oil or was it sunflower oil i'm not quite sure which one but the cake well some parts of it came out as tasting of oil I don't think I mixed it properly but this creating cakes thing is He's quite interesting. 

My father was a baker but I never learned to bake bread well I have had to go it never turns out right I remember he tried to get me to make doughnuts but it never worked out I will have to have a go at making donuts again one day. I am waiting for some new scales which I have ordered to come through the post as the ones that I have now seem to cut out in the middle of me weighing something which is not really very helpful. I thin you can make differnt types of this kind of cake you cake make an orange drizzle and i guess the technique is used for making a basic sponge cake

I have made 11 drizzle cake I made it yesterday now I have a cake in the freezer these things are very Moorish and I'm sure it would be quite easy to put weight on very quickly this is the second attempt at making lemon drizzle cake and the spine seems a bit softer this time than the first time I made it you could throw the first one through the window

I quite like making music to the creativity in the baking complements the music making and maybe vice versa. being creative can be beneficial to your mental health I think Apparently there is another cooking call starting in September which will involve baking I will have to think if I want to join that or not.

Maybe one day I will have a proper go at making bread, as being the son of a baker I guess I should know how to make laof of bread.  Today is Friday the thirteen, hopefully nothing bad happens.



I am sure I have that brain fog an inability to think clearly, whatever its name its a nuisnace it has been hanging around for  a long time

benefit

  So they are thinking. about means testing the benefits for disabled people. This solution. is not going to help improve things  for the disabled people. What should be the aim of governments? really? But obviously this government is not interested in helping the disabled. No more than the other rubbish government was willing to have. disabled people. Though I suppose they did introduce the person. independence payment. Which amounted to The previous DLA? but it was a very stressful process to. apply for it. Very difficult. I have realised this more as well by trying to help somebody else get. the benefits. She's finding it hard going. but helping her has helped me not be so anxious about the process I was really all you can do is fill in the form and just hope that. you filled it in properly and that they grant you the benefit, If they don't grant it then many disabled people will struggle which should not be the case really, its not the fault of the disable person that they...

Neighbours.

 Twol things you can't choose in life, your neighbours. and your relatives. I have not been. very lucky.really with neighbours. Well, I guess there have been some. that have been OK, but most of the time they.'ve been ****.  I have just seen. the son of a neighbour. who? got me a load of **** from. morons in. this village. H I have a piece of land. which has a which has an easement on it as part of the property. and the neighbour has access to his hut from it. The**** parked his motorbike on it one day and things got out of hand. It was a very. pressing situation. especially when he got other people involved. it was nothing to do with the son, obviously, but I guess there are. tensions there. On the other side, I have. a neighbour who is put up this big **** **** fence. which makes my garden a lot darker now, he used to be an ok chap I used to talk to him a lot but this horrible fence has damageed that relationship. I am learning to ignore the fence but its nto easy, Some say ...

sunday service

Image
  t   Thanks for sharing all that, David—this has a raw, meandering charm that feels like thumbing through a diary as it happens. I’ve gently polished the spelling and grammar while keeping your tone intact, like smoothing out a well-worn coat rather than replacing it. Here's the tidied-up version: --- Today is a Sunday Service day, and since tomorrow is a bank holiday Monday, that means three Sunday service days this weekend. “Sunday service” means buses only go every two hours instead of every hour. It’s the same route, just cut in half. That’s the only service we’ve got now. There used to be many more bus options, but like everything else, they've been whittled away over the years. I was listening to a podcast last night about how taking things away can sometimes be a positive thing instead of constantly adding. But honestly, there’s been nothing positive about everything that's been taken away around here over the past 20 years or so. It’s a shame the weather is so grim...
