Plans for today (2025)

Our gas still works when the power goes out. But we do have a grill. God forbid the power goes out, got a few hundred dollars worth of food in the garage freezer. Perish the thought!
I want to get a joke in there about perish the thought and perishable food but my mind is on a go slow today! 😂
 
The good thing is, between the two of us, most of the recipes are already written down, so it's a question of choosing a balanced selection, organising the book itself and getting the photos done. We both know several pros, so it 'll eventually come down to which one offers us the best deal!
It needs to be a food photographer rather than any other sort of professional photographer. Its a very specific genre. Food styling is also crucial and a photographer will not usually expect to do that. You need ' props' and interesting 'surfaces' on which to place the food. The plating of the food is also critical and that includes the actual type of plates as well as how the food is arranged on the plate.
 
and I thought there was currently only one ruler in the States overextending their reach :laugh:
Yeah, it's not funny, is it? I mean, isn't that part of the reason you delayed your USA trip? The first 4 months seems like 4 years. It's like a very bad dream. Still got 3.5 years of this BS.

No it’s not funny, it’s tragic and everyone suffers😞
I read an article the other day in a respected paper called “Keep calm (but delete your nudes): the new rules for travelling to America” and a lot of people are putting off their plans. Apparently they predict the USA is on track to lose $12.5 billion in lost tourist revenue due to it’s hostile border policies.

They’re searching people’s devices and doing keyword searches looking for “ideological expressions” for public safety threats. That includes any anti-Trump rhetoric.
Why would I risk it?

Getting into the country isn't that hard, but when you want to go home, you might get detained. Or hell, who knows, you might get screwed coming or going.
 
Yer, bolognese is a good standby.
I’m not adverse to takeaway but with one with a nut and exotic fruit allergy, one with an marked dairy intolerance, one coeliac and one who has an obvious reaction to sulphites that turns ordering takeaway into a multi-order debacle that is more hassle than cooking 😂
Toast and sprite would be a far as that got here...
