Except it doesn’t really look like him. So, yeah. Darth Vader.
Looks more like Chewie to me.
No, wait! It’s that medicine man ewok guy whose name I don’t know ‘cos he’s, like, an ewok and everybody hates them.
Tumblr iPhone app
I downloaded the Tumblr iPhone app a long time ago, and have had it sitting in my phone idle ever since.
I fired it up for the first time today, and it pretty much instantly became my new favourite way to read my followed blogs.
The website’s great, but this just feels a lot better to me.

Don’t see how this is a whine. If it’s an American on Verizon, their phone won’t work in Paris, will it? Even if it’s a GSM phone, it might be carrier locked.

Beautiful photo, but I’m embarrassed to say that my favourite thing about it was learning that the A361 goes through Chipping Norton. I’ve known it for years as the road that runs from Tiverton to Ilfracombe (where my mum lives) but had no idea it went so far North and East.
Lunch
Inspired by Salt & Fat’s article today, I decided to do something a little more fancy than my usual GCS for lunch.
Despite being a big fan of strong cheddar, I typically find it too much in a grilled cheese, and end up stealing some of the mild orange stuff we get for my daughter. Today, though, I went with 3 year old Balderson’s: grated rather than my usual sliced. In addition, I grabbed some Dijon mustard and sliced up an apple.
I usually “butter” the bread with an olive oil–based spread, but followed Jim’s lead and used regular olive oil. Whether it was the rippled pan or the olive oil, I don’t know — but it was a lot less greasy than my average grilled cheese.
I’m a bit of a one for turning the heat too high, so while the cheese was melted and the bread nicely grilled, the apple was a little less done than I’d like. One lives and learns.
A little fresh basil and some sea salt, and lunch was ready. Verdict: Best grilled cheese I’ve had.
Salt & Fat: The grilled cheese sandwich
I love foods that evolve with the cook, that are simple enough to be embraced early but improved upon indefinitely. Consider the grilled cheese sandwich.
Grilled cheese is one of the first things I remember piloting on the stove. Three Kraft singles cheese-product slices between limp pieces of…

A photo I took for today’s Daily Shoot, of the studio building in our back yard. The people who built the place were artists, and there’s a potter’s kiln at the far end.
So far we’re just using it to store our junk.
