Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Not, in fact, the first piece the wonderful Ms Moran has written on the topic of bay leaves.

I think Gwyneth won because she counter sued for $1, mentally people thought, she's just trying to clear her name, rather than grabbing money ( net worth 200 million). It was one person's word against another, see Michael Vaughan. Unproven would have been better in the skiing case if you ask me.

I have a Bay tree out the back, the leaves are picked and fresh and go straight into my sauces and risottos. They're great.

Our bay tree died last summer. We are very sad about this.

We have a number of bay trees and I'd go so far as to say that they are almost a weed as the birds sow them everywhere.

Definitely quite interesting. The cancelling on my AirPods Pro is pretty good, but IMO not as good as the Sony WH-1000XM3.

yep. but you can stick your AirPods in your pocket. My QC35s are undoubtedly a better bit of kit than my AirPods, but I hardly ever use them. My longest regular headphone 'journey' periods are on the coach going to and from Spurs - and a pair of over-ear headphones would be an absolute liability. I'd have to either leave them on the coach or wear them round my neck. Neither option sounds especially practical.

I often make notes when reading of things that I'd like to come back to later on, perhaps to su...

Hummus recipe:

Proper hummus is served with a drizzle of olive oil, rather than oil being a significant ingredient in its own right. This is what should go in it:

• 1½ cups cooked chickpeas or 1 (15-ounce) canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed*
• 3 tablespoons tahini
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 garlic clove, mashed
• ¼ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
• Approximately 2-4 tablespoons room-temperature water or aquafaba, or more if needed
• Optional garnishes: extra virgin olive oil, sumac or paprika, finely chopped parsley or other herbs, whole chickpeas

This particular recipe from thymeandtoast.com but it’s typical of the Middle Eastern way of making it.
