Read: The Cat Who Saved Books by Sōsuke Natsukawa translated Louise Heal Kawai ★★★☆☆ 📚
Carelessly throwing this into the slight, fun Japanese novel pile.
Full uncut interview with land campaigner Andy Wightman discussing rewilding, land reform, trees and why the Scottish mountains look the way they do.
Great listen (huffeduffed the youtube) nuanced discussion.
Fusilli with tinned sardines
Fusilli with tinned sardines, fennel, lemon and anchovy crumbs.
I think I had the correct ingredients! We are split over the crumbs. D prefers our usual plain in butter. I am with the anchovies.

Ryan Barrett (snarfed.org)https://snarfed.org/10th_birthday_cake.jpg Today marks 10 years to the day since I first launched Bridgy, my little IndieWeb side project to connect social networks and personal websites. Happy Birthday, Bridgy! I’ve always loved the internet, but I’m n...
Bridgy is part of the IndieWeb suite of tool I’ve been using it since 2015 without full understanding but with full appreciation. Along with the Post Kinds Plugin and the Syndicated links one has very much changed my blog.
Inmiddels gebruik ik de Post Kinds plugin (zie mijn handleiding) al weer een tijd op deze site.

Het is een uitbreiding op de Post Formats die WordPress niet echt meer lijkt te...
Unfortunately I’ve been struggling with the plugin for quite some time, something that struck me again when I reread my archive. At the end of December 2020 I already ran into the same problems that I still have. In May 2021 I once again expressed my frustration in a blog post, and luckily both Ton and Jan were kind enough to steer me towards possible solutions. I know that Ton is now busy (or ready?) to phase out Post Kinds. And this plugin from Jan also offers possibilities.

Read: O Caledonia by Elspeth Barker ★★★★★📚
2022 off to a good start. Brilliant fun. Short strange life of Scot’s girl. Gothic home, weird family, horrible school. Laugh out loud & touching.
Five years ago I reviewed the previous years blogging by making a word cloud from the posts titles 2015 in Titles.
I though I’d have another go. The result is quite different.

A walk around Ardinning Wildlife Reserve this morning. The sky was clear! Frost had got rid of the mud problem. Bright & Still. How different from the recent rain & gloom. Even 8 weeks after I tested positive, the cold made my chest tight & I don’t feel fit.
