It’s the start of June, which means that Mr TLC’s granddaughter is 3. Where does the time go? It also means that I get to play at baking birthday cakes. Actually, this year I get to do it twice – once for the family do, once for the kids’ party in a few days [...]

…Henderson’s Relish!
It is now officially the Vegetarian Society’s Best Store Cupboard Ingredient Winner. Quite right too.
“Everyone should have this gem in the cupboard, a Worcestershire style sauce without the anchovies, perfect to add to almost any savoury dish.”
It may have been better if I hadn’t mentioned to Mr TLC that [...]

Could I just mention how flipping fantastic Miss Masala’s chicken jhalfrezi and Madhur Jaffrey’s naan bread are? I can? Excellent.
I’d show you a photo, but I was too busy nomming to remember to take one.
The naan recipe made enough to feed me, Mr TLC and approx 5000 others, so we’re trying [...]

You know you’ve become a geek when you buy bagels, not because you have a desperate urge to eat them, but because you want to try this.
Sadly, I failed. My shop-bought bagels were a tad dry and powdery. As a result they disintegrated. Then again, maybe it was just my lack of skill. [...]

15:44 Contemplating dinner. Not sure if I can face another chilli based meal. Have been eating it since Friday, still a lot to go… #
Actually, I was wrong, we’ve been eating chilli since Thursday. Chilli and rice, enchiladas, chilli and mash, chilli and chilli. Chilli for lunch, chilli for dinner. I like [...]

One side effect of the holiday has been a total loss of my daysense. On New Year’s Eve I thought it was Friday, yesterday I thought it was Friday, by today I had no idea what day it was. Only one thing for it, a traditional Friday night was called for.
Home made curry [...]

Mr TLC was prowling around earlier this evening, expressing his great regret at having been so strong minded on the subject of snacky things. Easy to resist in the shop, but much pined after on a Friday evening apparently.
For some reason this caused me to experience an urge to make some crisps, something [...]

Is she still going on about Henderson’s Relish? Guilty as charged, I am indeed rattling on about that mystic brew yet again.
This time it’s Henderson’s Crisps, surely the ultimate snack for the average Sheffield bloke, but one which I approached with a certain amount of trepidation. I like Henderson’s, I use it when [...]

I love homemade bread. I also enjoy making it, although to be honest I’ve never really been completely happy with the results. My bread is nice, but it never quite turns out exactly how I want it to.
I like making bread, but I rarely make the time to do it. I’ve often been [...]

The Disappearing Cat has returned! *Waves at Blogland*
Well that was an unexpectedly chaotic week! I will not rattle on about the setbacks and delays that have beset me since my last post, but I will report that I am now (finally) the proud owner of a nice housing that is the perfect size [...]

The real three-legged cat
Welcome! Hi, I'm Lois Lindemann. Welcome to my blog!
This is where I blither on about life, the universe and everything - sometimes even three-legged cats.
I am: a resident of Sheffield (it's been my home town for more than 20 years), a Londoner, a teacher of maths and ICT and a student of French.
I like: cats, Sheffield, walking, doing the pub quiz, maths, cooking, reading, red wine, theatre, weekends in London, cycling, eating out, museums, gardening, going to the cinema, real ale, learning French and spending far too much time online. (My partner, Mr TLC, says this is making me sound like a lonely hearts ad. Oh well.)
Any opinions expressed in this blog are my own, I don't claim to speak for anyone else in education or outside of it. If you disagree, feel free to comment!
