Cheese. Cheese is protein. Ergo, cheese is health food.

This is just one of the rather gorgeous places I spent my weekend.

If this doesn't scream "children's adventure story about running away to an uninhabited island to live in a cave," to you, you had a deprived childhood.

Sheltered cove on Russell Island off Vancouver, which is indeed uninhabited. There were no caves here, sadly, but I'm pretty sure we could have found some a bit further around the coast. Shot is of a rocky outcrop overhung with trees and bushes, on a beach strewn artistically with driftwood. You can just make out a somewhat blue sea in the background, though in reality it was a lot bluer.

That is a thing of great beauty indeed!

Finally back in the saddle with the free monthly micro-reads! Phew!

Get your summer shiver on with this cheesy vamp-fest horror read

Flash fiction horror is always free on the website. And eventually I get around to doing an audio version too.

Why is it I can remember all the words to theme tunes from shows I saw as a kid, but something useful to remember - forget it!

Hmm, good question. I think I just chopped onions and the radishes and fried them a bit before I dumped in a couple of chopped potatoes, some veggie stock, and after pureeing, 2 cups of milk. Oh - salt and black pepper too! Oh yes, and I had two yellow courgettes wilting so I added them!

Honestly, I would buy shares, cos frankly who wouldn't like to travel back to a time that was less "interesting"?!

(2025? No thanks, I'll take my chances with the Black Death...)

FKMarlowe @fkmarlowe.bsky.social · Jul 22

Now there's a thought!

It was surprisingly good - so good, in fact, that Eldest, who is the pickiest of eaters, heated up the leftovers for her lunch the day after! Who'd 'a thunk?!
