    Pumpkin pie! And rump roast. Sunday is the best.

    Today’s celebratory homemade sourdough loaf and Prosecco

    TBH, Fall is grilling season here.

    Gorgeous loaf of homemade sourdough.

    Siri Shortcut for Meteobridge Weather Report

    If you have a weather station with Meteobridge, I’ve made a iOS Siri Shortcut so Siri can tell you about current conditions. You can tweak the weather report using variables on Meteobridge’s template page along with other small shortcut adjustments.

    By default it reports current temperature, humidity and gusts in the last hour.

    You’ll likely want to change the shortcut’s name. I chose simply “Yard” since Siri on HomePod finds it unique enough to not do something else. And my station is in the yard.

    Upon import, It’ll ask for your Meteobridge IP address and credentials. Those are private to your device! Then be sure to go to the shortcut’s details screen to enable Internet access. Test it out on your handheld device then try on your HomePod. If you’re using HomePod, it may need a power cycle to see the shortcut……

    Lemongrass came back this year after dying back over winter (we also took cuttings over winter and one managed to take). So here’s homemade lemongrass ice cream topped with praline. 😋

    We made roasted hot pepper sauce recently. A mix of jalapeños, anaheims, serranos and yellow wax peppers (more orange red upon ripening)👌 Worth the wait growing and ripening peppers to red. 🌶

    Coconut-Gochujang Glazed Chicken With Broccoli is pretty good. We added Gochugaru (Korean pepper flakes) for extra heat. Would recommend serving as a rice bowl though. It begged for a bowl.

    Excellent sourdough shape, crumb, and pretty good flavor (48 hour refrigerator proof).

    We love this homemade smoked beef salami — could use a bit more paprika but great first try.
