world cup 2026

Remember this? I sure do. It was the first and (for the moment) last time Spain won the World Cup. And while I don’t actually follow football, I like getting involved in the important matches like this (fair weather fan). So I was looking for a bar to watch the final this Sunday, just like I did in 2010, because it really was a lot of fun to go out and meet up with friends and neighbours, and…

blue moon

Holy fuck what a movie. And what a cast. Came across this last night by chance and it was just what I needed. A tour de force performance by Ethan Hawke. Loved it.

jammin' with sam & jeff

Sam Neill September 1947 – July 2026 💔 This is such damn sad news.

And later these lovely vids of him singing show tunes with good friend Jeff Goldblum. By all accounts a wonderful guy, someone…

greens galore!

I came across this recipe for Via Carlota’s Insalata Verde on Bluesky the other day and have been dying to try it ever since. So yesterday I went out in search of greens and ended up with five of them, though not exactly the same combo as those in the recipe (who cares, right?) but… THIS is only half of what I bought. I mean, those frisée are monsters. So now I have greens galore and, as you…

sherry vinegar

While doing some research for my next Bitesize Sevilla article I discovered that the Sherry Academy offers a (free!) online course on Sherry Vinegar. So what the heck. I not only learned a lot but I also passed the exam! Go me. 🙂
