TGT has moved!
You might have noticed that not only has it been super quiet here, but that the site address has changed back to the wordpress form. I made the decision back before Christmas to move over to Squarespace and took my time to get used to the site and I’m now slowly starting to post again. If you fancy continuing to follow This Geeky Tangent, then head over to the new site! The newest post has…

Last Month Today | July & August 2020
The emotional rollercoaster that is 2020 has been continuing, with varying degrees of creative mojo. September is always a bit of a reset: schools start back, Christmas is on the horizon, with halloween and bonfire night between (and who knows what any of that will look like this year) and there’s generally a cosy autumnal anticipation in the air (for me, anyway!)
Whilst there has not been much

This Geeky Kitchen | Make It Yours : Cauliflower Curry
I love a recipe book. I can see about 38 from where I’m sitting, with more at home and as many again on my kindle.
And then there’s the internet. With more recipes than you could possibly imagine. With all the different sites, from blogs to bbc good food, it all gets a bit much to keep track of.
I’ve been cooking more than ever – along with the rest of the country – and been more…

Last Month Today | June 2020
It’s been a while. Necessarily.
There have been seismic shifts in June.
June brought with it a swell in a movement that has long been overdue. You’d have been living under a rock to miss the Black Lives Matter movement (BLM). A month on, social media still has posts streaming through it. As it should.
Whatever the world looked like when we went into lockdown, it will not look the same…

Pattern Weights | This Geeky Blog
Pattern Weights | This Geeky Blog
My sewing has increased exponentially over the last few weeks, and with that the collection of all the bells and whistles you need. At the top of my list was pattern weights. I have no cutting table, which means I’m scrabbling around on the floor trying to cut things out – I’m still trying to find the optimum area of floor space for this – and I was using everything from candles, to my phone to…

One Foundation, Two Dishes | This Geeky Kitchen
Six weeks into lockdown and it’s been a fascinating food journey in what I need to eat, what the boy needs to eat, and how we use our food. We now have our regular order down, and we’re having fun expanding our food horizons – potatoes really are awesome!
There are two dishes we keep coming back to, time and again: a soup for lunch times and a pasta sauce – the latter usually coming towards…

Last Month Today | April 2020
A full month in lockdown, with no end in sight, but clearly very restless neighbours. I’m almost glad the rain has returned – people are back in their houses after apparently being a bit gung-ho about the whole thing over the last few days. Though, of course, to caveat this, I can only comment on the people I see outside my windows.
I’ve been outside four times in April – if that. Would I…

Mixtape Monday | 4 May 2020
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a mixtape. They’ve not been as regular as I’d like, but such is Lockdown Lethargy. Thankfully, that feeling has been waning recently, and I’ve finally been paying attention to music again, so let’s get going!
For album we have ‘Spring to Spring‘ by Hoppípolla. I stumbled across this short play album when settling down to listen to the new releases in…

Envelope Craft – Happy Mail| This Geeky Blog
Sending letters has always been my thing, and when I moved out to Hong Kong, they became my primary means of communication between myself and one of my uni friends, and we continue to write letters to each other to this day!
Discovering the wealth of origami paper in Hong Kong, I started to make my own stationery. The process has gone through a wealth of evolutions, and now I can make a set…

This Geeky Kitchen | Lockdown Cooking #1
Here in the UK, we’ve been in lockdown for more than three weeks now, and it’s looking like (quite rightly) that it will be this way for some time. Aside from flour being impossible to source, we’ve been able to keep the food coming in (as an asthmatic, I won’t be stepping foot into a supermarket for some time, I feel) and it’s been fun experimenting with that we have and stretching our cooking…

This Geeky Blog | Phonics Flashcards
Digging through my craft draw, I unearthed my phonics flashcards. I used them extensively while in Hong Kong, but they were less useful in a large class in Korea. They came out for the odd smaller class or camp, but for the most part became obsolete.
However, now that we’re all stuck indoors, I figured these could be used by anyone and everyone to help out fledgling readers/speakers from…

This Geeky Blog | The Bag Project #2
Time for part two of the bag project! This stage wasn’t as painful as I though it would be, and I’m pretty stoked with how its all going.
After the last post, the first thing I needed to do was work out what kind of fabric I was going to be doing all my embroidery onto. I quickly discounted linen because I want to embroider allof the bag (make a bag, Nancy, make it manageable, Nancy… or…

Last Month Today | March 2020
I think we can all agree that March has been a mind-bending, shit-show of a month. We are living through unprecedented, surreal times and it’s both mind-boggling and anxiety creating, but the knowledge that we’re all in this together, and that there is nowhereto go to escape this, makes me quite happy to stay in and do what I’m told, thanks very much. There’ll be plenty of time for hanging out…
