This morning
Colleague: See that Heather Mills is representing herself.
Me: Madness. You don’t take on Macca’s laywer by yourself. He’s going to make her look like a mad cow.
Colleague: True.
Me: Which isn’t that hard, to be honest.
Colleague: No.
Me: They will eat her alive. She doesn’t have a leg to stand on.*
And since I’m going to be sued, can I also say that Amy Winehouse winning five Grammies last night is rubbish. I wonder how much of it has to do with the fact that she has been in the news so much lately. Like how the Dixie Chicks cleaned up with best song and album last year with a substandard effort after their Bush comments, but the CD before, called “Home”, won nothing but country music category gongs. I’m not saying these people are trying to get in the news to sell records, but the judges lean towards people in the news because it makes the awards look edgy. Rubbish. When are the Bloggies? Because I’m not feeling so good.
*There goes my Blogisattva, by the way.

Remember: When writing news copy, it’s “Sad Amy”, “Troubled Britney”, “Mental Heather” and “Completely off his tits Pete Doherty”
You mean like “Brave Kylie”?
That’s the one. “Granny-grabbing Wayne Rooney” springs to mind as well. I should start putting a list together.
hey cliffy wiff cheer up, come and write something for Warchild…

peach
completely off-topic, i thought i’d pop in and say that i made your bagel recipe this past weekend, and while they were a little on the flat side (my yeast may have been a bit tired, who knows), they are divine. thank you!
I saw a picture of Brave Kylie at work today. I used to work near where she lived, and she looks much braver in real life.
Peach – will do. What’s my cut, 20 per cent? Only joking. Ten.
Franko – Thanks for popping by and welcome. That’s you and Wendy rocking the bagels so far. They rise a little more if you leave them in a warm place and you make sure the water is boiling fully when they go in. Could be your yeast, though, or even your water. Any way, at least you know they are all natural, with no emulsifiers or egg powders or everything.
true dat. the yeast i have is technically past its expiration date, but i keep it in the fridge so i figured why not just use it. so, i suspect the yeast. also, i meant to mention, they came out more fluffy and less dense and, uh, bagel-ly than i was expecting. but they really are delish, so thank you for sharing the recipe. it won’t be the last time i make them, that’s for certain.
So did you use two fingers or three?
i actually used three, as per the written instructions, ed r — despite the confusing photo.

Leave a comment. Play nice. I will turn this blog around.
