Soft Joe

Anyway back on topic. I did a nice herby vegetable tray bake tonight. Butter beans. Tenderstem broccoli and courgettes.With cod loin and pesto with a panko breadcrumb crust. Delicious. Easy to make and low carb as well!

Ha ha! No offence taken. It’s funny how someone mentioned socialists talking about all this la di da middle class stuff like kim chi etc. I really don’t fit the profile of a stereotypical drug addict either. I can’t let on about it at work for example. Only close friends, family and people I know in recovery are aware of it. Which is why it’s nice to blow my own trumpet once in a while. Even if it is only on here!

Unfortunately to my cost I have tried crack cocaine many times in the past. I’m a recovering addict. I’m happy to report I’ll be 18 months clean next week. My life is unrecognisable really to how it was at my lowest ebb a couple of years ago. One of the key factors in my recovery has been getting into cooking. I love it. Hence my last couple of posts in here.

Watched Detroit last night. Been on my radar since it came out a couple of years ago but it was on BBC 2 last night so stayed up and watched it. Not an easy watch. Quite harrowing in parts. Very good film in my opinion 8/10. Not a very happy ending. Actually makes you feel quite angry as it’s based on real events.

Kimchi fried rice is on a par with crack cocaine in the moreishness stakes. I’ve been using these Korean chilli flakes as well, gochigurru I think you pronounce it? Very distinctive. Taste amazing with stir fried chicken sesame and honey.

Anyone else on here into Korean cooking? Did a stir fry marinade using Gochujang paste, honey, soy sauce, ginger and garlic. Fried some steak and vegetables with it and served with jasmine rice. Threw a few cashews in. Spring onions. Sesame seeds to finish. Was fucking impressed with it to be honest!

Riding a bike with no hands on the handlebars

Suedehead and Everyday is Like Sunday. versus The Passenger and Lust For Life. Just remembered Nightclubbing so a vote for Iggy it is then.

Anyone who manages to turn around a crack habit gets kudos from me. That stuff is very moreish. I’ve gone for George in this one as he has had some killer songs over the years and I never listen to Bruce Springsteen. The one about bumming people outside is seriously funky and gets played regularly to this day in our household.

Too many Mancs being mentioned here although I didn’t mind Jesper Olsen. Viera. Klinsmann. Asprilla. Pat Nevin.

Right on cue Tyler you cunt

And Sheffield Wednesday one season with Reggie Blinker. Being top after 3 games is an illustrious club to belong to. They should get a badge for their shirts or something.

Freaks my nut out to this day that he ever managed us

Some lovely goals there especially Shaq’s free kick. I hope Jones gets rewarded for this performance. On this evidence he deserves more of a chance than Keita. I’m surprised no one mentioned that every single one of our players was wearing a long sleeve jumper under their shirts. Bunch of fannies. Not even in October yet.

Such a shame. The new Daniel Agger.
