- Quite a gap since I last wrote one of these; I recently rotated off a
tough project which was taking up all of my time. But now I’m on something
new and then had a lovely week off!
- The Food Almanac via John that’s a collection of seasonal recipes
and stories, which in turn lead to picking up An Everlasting Meal
which I last tried in 2013 and didn’t really get on with, but was reminded of
again because of Alicia Kennedy’s newsletter which I always look forward
to reading. As I read it this second time, I’m realising I’ve (accidentally?)
grown as a cook to do a lot of the topics covered, but I’m still learning a
lot and I enjoy the little bits of recipes spread throughout,
- I’ve been focused on wrapping up stuff I’d started, and a few workflow
optimisations the past few weeks,
- On my dotfiles, I’ve been to removing some dependencies which have been
causing some extra complexity and also trying to make them more portable.
This has meant removing base16, which I was using for colours and moving
to something which relies more on the shell itself,
- Plus I’ve been trying to finish a very long in progress blog post around my
desk and workplace setup which I started last year,
- I’ve also been planning out wood working projects for this year: replacing
some table legs we use as a kitchen island, building several new planters.
I’ve also been thinking a lot about building outside furniture, after being
inspired by this Laura Kampf video. I don’t quite have the amount of
tools though!
