Vaportinis: We've Got the Vapors
Ordering a drink isn't what it used to be. If I want to enjoy an adult beverage, I now have the option of sucking a shot through a beef marrow bone, lapping up a swirl of alcohol-infused whipped cream or chugging beer made from actual beard yeast (seriously). Man, remember when you could just ask for a Jack and Coke and be good to go?
The latest boozy trend: inhaling your liquor. Yep, a new device called the Vaportini has made it possible, evaporating spirits so you can breathe in the flavors with a straw. Since the alcohol is absorbed directly into the bloodstream, there are no calories or impurities, and the effects are felt immediately.
Chicago cocktail-lounge owner Julie Palmer came up with the concept after watching a friend in Finland pour vodka over hot coals inside a sauna. It was intoxicating—literally. She wanted to re-create that experience for friends and customers, so she asked her father, an engineer, for help. Several experiments later, the Vaportini—now available for $30 at www.vaportini.com—was born.
The setup is pretty simple. Pour a shot of your favorite spirit (anything 70 proof or higher will do) into a glass globe that rests over a candle. As it heats up, insert a glass straw into the vessel, then breathe in the flavored fumes. The aromas are meant to be inhaled slowly and savored, not huffed as if you're a spray-paint junkie in a high-school parking lot. (In other words, pace yourself, lushes. Alcohol vapor is strong and can be dangerous if misused.) Many have reported feeling a mellow buzz that wears off quickly.

I decided to try the Vaportini one night in my kitchen. As I set it up, I kept thinking, "Is this thing really legal?" (it is, for now) and, "Remember to hide it from my mother." I lit the candle, poured a shot of Maker's Mark into the globe using a plastic funnel and waited four minutes for the vapor action to kick in. Then, I peer-pressured my husband into taking the first hit.
"Yeah, this will get you drunk," he said after sucking in a puff.
I went next, breathing in gently. The vapors were warm, like what you experience with a hookah. I was able to taste all the flavors of the whiskey without getting any of the sharpness of alcohol. It was kind of nice.
And then we poured it all out. Hey, these are precious brain cells, people!
A few minutes later, my husband turned to me and asked, "You wanna beer?"

In most ChordWizard products, the Relations View or the popup Relations tool can instantly show you all chords of any type which can be used for composition with music in any scale.
Bring these music concepts to life with the free Songtrix Bronze Edition as you create songs from chords and scales. Then publish and share your ideas with the other musicians you meet on the ChordWizard Network.
Have questions? Join the ChordWizard Network and post them in the Music Theory forum for answers and discussions on your topics of interest.
Take the Video Tour
When you know the scale of your new song, you have a useful framework that will help you develop it, because it tells you which notes (those in the scale) you can use in the melody.
Perhaps even better, every scale has a group of related chords, built from its notes, which naturally sound appropriate for a piece of music written in the scale.
The related chords of a scale are especially important to composers, since they provide something of a musical thesaurus, prompting possibilities of which chord could be played next.
We saw tables of related chords of the C Major scale earlier, but the same information can be presented in a summary table for all Major scales, using roman numeral notation.
To use this table, simply assign the roman numerals to the notes of your scale. For example, with the C Major scale: I=C, II=D, III=E and so on. With the A Major scale: I=A, II=B, III=C# and so on.
Wherever a sound button appears, you can hear the sound of the related chord made from the root note in the column heading and the chord type in the row heading.
Note that while this table is useful, it is for the Major scale only, and contains only some of the many possible chord types.
In most ChordWizard products, the Relations View or the popup Relations tool can instantly show you all chords of any type which can be used for composition with music in any scale.
There are no absolute rules for which chords you can include in your song. Using the related chords of a scale will generally give better results, as they create a compatible background for the song's melody.
However, many excellent and innovative pieces of music use other chords as well. Usually, this is because they are changing keys during the music, and we'll look at this in more detail in a later topic.

Catmints (Nepeta spp.), with their scalloped silvery-green leaves and stalks of small lavender-blue, pink or white flowers, provide waves of cooling colors between hotter-hued blooms in your garden. From diminutive 8-inch plants to towering 4-foot varieties, they bloom in late spring and summer. Catmints grow in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 3 through 10, depending on the species. Catmints often stop blooming and turn floppy in midsummer, but you can shear them to encourage another flush of flowers.
Things You'll Need
- Pruning shears
- Bleach
Check plants before pruning or cutting for signs of powdery mildew, such as white spores and deformed shoot tips or flowers. Disinfect your pruning shears between cuts, if you notice signs of the fungus, by dipping the blades of those shears in a mixture of 1 part bleach to 9 parts of water.
Snip off the top one-half to two-thirds of the catmint's stems, using pruning shears, in midsummer after the plant has finished blooming and when it has recently been watered. Leave the faded flowering shoots on the plants after they finish blooming for the second time in late summer or early fall. When the foliage dies back after frosts or snow, allow it to remain in place until spring.
Prune all of the winter-killed growth off the catmint in early spring, cutting entirely dead shoots all the way back to the ground and others back into the green growth just below the brown tips. In higher USDA zones, where the plants may not die back, cut the previous year's shoots back to the ground to make room for new ones.

Thank you to all of Ron's customers for giving him a special reason to deliver mail in your neighborhood everyday. He truly enjoys his job and brings home some great stories for us to hear. He was especially touched by the "surprise" party in his honor at the Brew's house! He will really miss every one of his customers and will think about you all while we are living in Texas! You all have his cell phone number, so if you miss him badly - give him a call!

Well, this is fun.
Scottie Pippen felt compelled to put out a press release today, regarding his cameo in some straight-to-DVD movie called "Midgets vs. Mascots," starring Gary Coleman.
According to Game On, the flick has generated gossip because Coleman — who made a trip to the ER this week — is upset that it includes inadvertent nude footage of him. (Isn't that the worst kind?)
As for Pippen, he has his own issues with the movie. But before you start accusing him of beating up midgets, hear him out.
What's that? You never suspected Scottie Pippen of beating up midgets.
Oh, well, here's a weird press release from the former Bulls All-Star just in case you do.
[Note: Make sure you check out the video below.]
"Given the recent controversy surrounding Gary Coleman, the fact that I've been repeatedly asked questions about my small part in the movie 'Midgets vs. Mascots,' and a related video posted online which shows me being assaulted by a group of Little People, I want to clear up any misunderstandings.
"In 2008, I agreed to play a cameo role in a movie titled 'A Tribute to Big Red' (now titled 'Midgets vs. Mascots'). My role was scripted, and the first two scenes went off without any problems. During the third scene, I was told that four Little People, along with actor Gary Coleman, were going to become angry with something I said and storm off as the scene ends. Instead, they basically attacked me, with Gary Coleman apparently climbing on a chair behind me to hit me over the head with a phone (twice).
"A short fight ensued before I heard the film's director yell 'cut.' As I recall, some of the Little People were laughing as the director explained that the scene was 'sort of like an episode of the TV show 'Punk'd.'' At that point, I left quickly without a clear understanding of what was going on.
"As for the Little Person who claims he was injured in the attack, I really don't think I caused the injury or can be held to blame. To the best of my knowledge, there is no action being taken against me, nor am I pursuing any action. For the record, I have never seen the movie and, in hindsight, wish I'd not been involved with it. I simply wanted to make clear my role and position as I understand the movie is coming out soon. I will not be answering any further questions regarding the film."
Umm ... OK?

Welcome to the Helton Lab at the University of Connecticut's Department of Natural Resources and the Environment & the Center for Environmental Sciences and Engineering.
We are interested in how water and elemental (primarily carbon and nutrient) cycles are linked across landscapes and how human activities and global climate change alter these cycles and their interactions. Our research focuses on a range of freshwater ecosystems - streams and rivers, floodplains, and wetlands using a variety of field and simulation modeling approaches.
Please explore the research and publications pages for more information.

Yoga guru Ramdev and thousands of his supporters were detained Monday afternoon when they tried to march towards Parliament from Ramlila Maidan in support of their demand to bring back the black money stashed abroad and protest against corruption.
As the police stopped the protesters near the Ranjit Singh flyover, about 3km from Parliament, traffic, too, came to a grinding halt in central Delhi. Disruptions continued till late in the evening.
For 6,000 Delhi Police personnel the challenge was to avoid a repeat of last year's crackdown at Ramlila Maidan, which left many injured and a woman dead.
Even before Ramdev announced his march plan at 12.45pm, the police had blocked the roads leading to the ground.
Around 100 DTC buses were parked near the flyover, which leads to Connaught Place, in the morning to drive the protesters away.
While Ramdev's supporters - some of who lay on the road - ignored request to board the buses, the preventive measures taken by the police threw traffic out of gear. The worst hit were those heading towards New Delhi railway station.
Vehicles coming from the Minto Road side were forced to a halt in front of the Civic Centre, while the Paharganj traffic was stopped at the Ramlila Grounds roundabout.
The road leading to the Delhi Gate, too, was blocked, causing a jam at ITO and Ring Road.
Rain did what the police couldn't. It drove supports to take shelter in the buses.
As the first bus carrying Ramdev started to move, 10 more buses packed with his supporters followed. The 1km distance from Ranjit Singh flyover to Delhi Gate took four hours to cover.
Finally at 6pm, Ramdev and more than 5,000 supporters were taken to the Ambedkar Stadium, close to the Ramlila Maidan, and let off but they refused to leave the stadium.

plus if your son wants to go it will probably upset him and he might see you as what is stopping him being with his dad.
i know it must be hard but i think sometimes you have to do what you may not want to, in the best interests of your son.
Could you perhaps drop him in, then he can stay overnight and then you could pick him up the next day?
My mum has a phobia for being a passenger, and won't let anyone else drive (to the point where she even drove herself an hour to hospital while in labour because she was too scared to let anyone drive!). Unlike you, she hasn't made an effort to address this issue and it has held me and my siblings back from being able to get licences for several years because my dad works away and she wouldn't give us lessons. You don't want to let your fears hold back your son because he will become resentful rather than understanding (we certainly were).
I'd let him go. As others have pointed out his father drives him when he goes to visit him. Just stress the point with him that he is carrying very precious cargo and had better remember it.

You sound like me.. I'm a big worry wort when it comes to DS travelling in other people's cars..
When I first read your post, i thought, public transport, or you yourself could "kindly offer" to drop them off and pick them up?
But the more I think about, I really do think that at some stage you have to let go. You can't keep your DS from travelling in a car with him or anyone else for ever.. and you certainly can't avoid freeways all the time (as much as I feel you, like I said, I'm the same and I dread it, too.)
The first time my DS was taken up to the coast for a day out with friends was hell for me.. I had prevented him going so many times, but I finally agreed and, even though I sat home wringing my hands the whole time, I felt better within myself for letting go of my fears.
But it's up to you..

Thanks for all your replies...
Wow... This is hard. I realise now why I don't post much personal stuff online anymore, it's so hard to hear things that you don't agree with! (but honestly thank you all for your replies, I'm just super sensitive!)
I guess the thing is, I actually have to physically "switch off" when DS has gone to see fob. Which has never be regular or all that positive for that matter. The instincts of a mother who is hearing her child sobbing down the phone line 1000's of km's away that he wants to come home are incredibly powerful. I've had to learn to physically turn them off otherwise I wouldn't function while he was away.
I've had no choice in the past to let him go and he has made the decision now that he doesn't want to go back for a while as he gets too homesick.
What I am realising after writing this post that I am feeling resentful and territorial about our life here. He has not been in here in 5 years then expects to waltz over and do something that I would be uncomfortable with ANYone doing let alone someone who I don't know/trust/like all that much. Who has proven time and time again that they are unreliable, full of crap and immature.
I have suggested catching the train the next day to a day game and DS is taking 2 days off school to spend time with him. I just don't think my anxieties and concerns should be ignored just because fob has decided to finally come and see him.
then follow your gut
It's hard but they take the kids away for the weekend etc.

I am so close with my mum but literally couldn't visit her for over 6 months because I was so bad (she came to our house a lot, 2.5 hour drive).
Hence why I'm not asleep right now
as I'm waiting for DH to the home from the damn footy!!

He recalled that in 2006 the set top boxes enjoyed a full exemption from basic customs duty it was to enable their free import for the smooth introduction of the Conditional Access System (CAS). However, now that the production capacity has come up in the country, there will be basic customs duty of 5 per cent on set top boxes. A move like this is bound to help the manufacturers of the country.
He announced reduction in the basic customs duty on LCD panels from 10 per cent to 5 per cent to support indigenous production of LCD televisions.
"The electronic hardware industry has a strong potential for creating employment especially in the SME sector. I intend to reduce the basic customs duty on LCD panels from 10 per cent to five per cent to support indigenous production of LCD televisions," Pranab Mukherjee said.
Further, he proposed to reintroduce the same rate that was available to accessories, parts and components imported for the manufacture of mobile phones for another year till. This means that the mobile accessories like the LCD screens will become cheaper.

Daily News Bike Reporter Doomed To Walk?
Biking Daily News reporter Simone Weichselbaum may be furiously searching for her beloved two-wheeler: a blue and yellow Surly Steamroller.
The reporter has written that she uses her cycle to go pretty much everywhere: "I hate being in the overpriced sticky subways and opt to ride my sweet Surly Steamroller instead of paying for a cab. I bike to crime scenes while on the job for the Daily News, and have no problem peddling to dinner parties sporting shorts under a fancy dress."
But Weichselbaum may have to endure humid subways and expensive cabs like the rest of the city's non-biking dupes, as she appears to have taken out a Craigslist ad asking for help finding her vehicle, which got swiped last week.
"If you guys have seen my Surly Steamroller painted blue and yellow covered with pro-biking stickers, could you please help me get it back. Someone managed to slip the U-Lock off a pole in front of 212 Ave A on Sunday. This bike is my baby"...

Weichselbaum recently penned a piece for the News in which she describes rocketing through NYC using brassy techniques taught to her by bike coach John Campo. "Campo teaches folks how to 'street ride," writes Weichselbaum,"a culture mixed with bike messenger-styled aggressiveness (yes, we scream at drivers and pedestrians not giving us the right of way) and staying safe."
A note that looks to be from the journo says the theft happened while she worked the story of the homicide of the Forbidden City bouncer last Sunday.
The blog NYC Bike Snob comments the possible theft "underscores a fundamental truth about 'street riding,' which is that you're only as fast as your bicycle is secure." Messages left for Weichselbaum at the News and through the number posted with the ad have gone unanswered.

High Force Waterfall
History, tourist information, and nearby accommodation
The lesser known younger cousin of nearby Aira Force. High Force is located a quarter of a mile or so uphill of its more famous neighbour, and can be reached via the same route used to access Aira Force.
Park in the National Trust parking lot just north of the A592 junction with the Troutbeck road (A5091). A charge applies if you are not a member of NT. Follow the path uphill to Aira Force and simple keep going up. You will pass several smaller falls along the way before eaching High Force.
The falls are not spectacular, but are quite pleasant, and they are far less crowded than Aira Force. For a different route returning simply cross overAira Beck at Aira Falls and take the signposted route downhill. You have the option of a short side trip across the hill to Yew Crag, where the forest opens out to provide spectacular views over Ullswater.

Western China International Expo Center Officially Completed
Chengdu, China—PRNewswire
Western China International Expo Center was fully completed by the end of August, which will be serving as the permanent venue for the Western China International Fair, a main venue for large scale exhibitions and fairs as well as platform for major high-end commercial and business events.
Western China International Expo Center has an area of 300,000 square meters divided into 16 halls in eight pavilions, including 15 standard exhibition halls and one multi-function hall. Each pavilion is connected by passages inside except the external transportation hall. WCIEC (Western China International Expo Center) adopted steel shuttle-shaped truss columns structure which widens the unblocked view with the no-column design the interior. Meanwhile the conception maximizes the usage efficiency of the pavilions which to lower the amount of steel used in construction.
The center is composed of transportation connection hall, indoor exhibition halls, conference rooms, dining and office facilities as well as underground parking lot and outdoor exhibition area.
In the exhibition industry, the establishment of Western China International Expo Center is no doubt a new "weapon" for the Chengdu exhibition industry in the competitive market.
Chengdu, embraced the growing globalization of exhibition industry, as the organizer of series of international exhibitions and fairs such as G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors Meeting, 2016 (Chengdu) Global Innovation and Entrepreneurship Fair, 2016 iWorld Expo and 22
World Route Development Conference, and the 16
Western China International Fair to come.
In the past few years as Chengdu rises as a new power in international exhibitions, the market is seeing wider prospect. Not only Chengdu has become a prime destination to gather many top international exhibition companies, many exhibitions and events of global scale are choosing Chengdu.
In 2017, the International Furniture Fair Chengdu will see the most significant changes since it was established, adopting a "two fairs in one city" format. The 18
International Furniture Fair Chengdu will be hosted at both the Western China International Expo Center and Chengdu Century City New International Convention & Exhibition Center at the same time with the total exhibition area reaching 250,000 square meters. It will not only be the first single professional trade fair in Chengdu to cover more than 200,000 square meters, but also the first exhibition project realizing "two fairs in one city." It will also be the largest professional exhibition in Midwestern China. Chengdu exhibition industry is also entering the era of "two fairs in one city."
According to industry insiders, as the plans and policies for the development of west China are being carried out, the potential and growing demand of the western market is also being developed and explored, creating home-grown demand for large international exhibitions to march into the western regions of China.

Land use and zoning attorneys help you understand land use laws and zoning regulations, both of which concern how you use your land (for businesses, homes, farms, factories, etc.). Zoning regulations specify things such as how close together different types of buildings can be (for example, single-family homes versus high-rise apartment buildings), how far back from the sidewalk buildings must be set, how high you can build, and how much parking you need to provide. A land use / zoning attorney can determine which rules apply to your property and development activities, and whether you qualify for any exceptions to these rules.

Worst circus ever! Do not waste your money on this!!!!!!
Fantastic outing and a real highlight for our visiting interstate family: 8 of us aged four to 54. The acts were varied - clever, visually lovely, funny and, at times, amazing. (Couldn't believe the contortionist!) All in all, a really nice atmosphere with lovely, friendly acrobats and performers. Highly recommended!
We saw the show last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. We laughed so hard at the clowns and the amazing acts of the talented troop! The man who fits his entire body into a bottle was incredible! We loved every second of the show.
First of all, if you want to purchase this, do not buy the VIP tickets. Buy the cheapest one. There is no point at all, there is only like 6 rows of seat and sitting at VIP is a huge waste of money. Sitting at the front is not comfortable at all, since we have to lift our head up to watch (just like being at the front in cinema). You can see clearly at the very back, trust me. Second of all, the seats are cheap plastic portable chair on top of grass. So, dont expect it to look like a stage at all. Lastly, the performance is boring. The clown act is cliche and the people who are supposed to accrobatic stuffs look like bunch of amateurs. The things they are doing are amazing if you saw one of your friends doing that. We clapped our hands just because we have to, not because we are amazed by the show. The man who can fit on a box, is the only amazing stuff about the performance. I watched a circus at caufield couple of years ago. I paid $35 for mid row seats (same price with pointcook latino VIP) and I was amazed by the show. They're highly entertaining, very skilfull and so much fun to watch. It's even held in big proper stage with proper seats. I dont know whether the caufield price is too cheap or this latino show is too expensive. For me, to call this thing circus is an overstatement. In conclusion, don't expect anything from this show. If you want to watch, grab the last row. They're half the price + you dont have to lift your head to watch.

Expensive but teachers great.
A whole new approach to Art. Stimulating hands-on classes where story-telling, observation of nature and expression of life experiences form part of the teaching. Classes are led by dedicated and talented artists whose passion infuses every lesson, exciting and engaging children to explore their creativity. Classes are held in Glen Waverley, Doncaster, Preston and Point Cook. Check for details.
This is an art school for children and adults that is uniquely different because it is based on Eastern and Western art training techniques. I have seen students amazed at the results they achieve. There are classes for kids and adults at all ages and all levels from 4 years and over.

Ill release mine if you want? Releasing isn't as good as it you'd to be. It was so much better when CodeDemon released a hot key hack with like 5 hacks and everybody praised him
Can't wait man, they look really good thus far.
Now, will this work with PerX?

Batten down the hatches Canada, our neighbours south of the border are about to elect a new leader.
Tomorrow the freak show, that will go down as the election campaign of the century, will come to a climax.
How can you possibly predict the outcome when no one ever thought it would ever go this far?
This is another example of 'anyone but these people'.
A pure protest vote, as no one really likes either candidate.
Some may say, 'who cares' it's all the same.
But when was the last time you remember the world being consumed by an election campaign?
That says something of the magnitude of this particular vote.
And could influence others, in the future, for years to come.
It's a Hollywood reality show finale, with real life consequences.
I'm Scott Thompson.
Monday on The Scott Thompson Show!
Should Premier Kathleen Wynne step down before next election?

Japan - The 16th Century.
Sengoku Jidai - The Age of the Country at War.
The land is being torn apart by rival warlords, each with the burning ambition to be declared supreme ruler of Japan - to become Shogun. You are one of them.
Thousands of loyal warriors stand before you, a nation lies ready to be conquered. In the shadows, ninja assassins await your orders, now it begins.....

Total Warfare:
A unique combination of strategic decisions and intense real-time action on the battlefield will take you deeper into this savage historical period than you ever believed possible.

In-Depth Strategy:

The Game:
The main game is divided into two main game sections. Turn-based strategy map: In addition to taking the role of commander-in-chief of your armies, you must also manage the wealth of your lands, construct defences and dojos, train your men and balance alliances with rival Daimyo while you wait for the right time to strike. Season by season, you must use Ninja, Shinobi and other strategic units to gain every advantage and so take Japan region by region.
Real-Time Battles:
When armies from different clans come to occupy the same region in the same season, you will experience war as it occurred in the 16th century.

I am a little obsessed with good crackling and crisp skin generally. One of the best things that I have ever eaten might surprise you. It was in Barbados, I had asked the staff at my hotel what their favourite thing to eat was and they had replied, oh you wouldn't like it. I knew that I probably would and so I pressed on. They laughed and refused to divulge. They had done with guests before who returned horrified and full of moans. To my surprise and delight eventually they gave in and replied, barbecue pig tails. Say what?! I have never had a pig tail, save slippery in a soup in Antigua (the flavour was great, the texture a bit more challenging for me). I had never had pig tail off the barbecue.
Continue reading
This recipe is the first in a series of 4 that I developed in partnership with the Big Green Egg who sponsored this post. (Read more about sponsored content on Eat Like a Girl).
This is the first in a series of recipe posts that I developed for the Big Green Egg. The iconic ceramic BBQ is a terrific piece of kit that I have really enjoyed working with at home. It The Big Green Egg has a domed lid which makes it an all weather BBQ but also allows very precise temperature control (combined with air valves at the top and at the bottom). The enamel coating ensures that it doesn't rust and it is ready to use within 15 minutes of sparking up. I thought that I would go through a lot of charcoal but it is surprisingly efficient for such a big beast.
There is such satisfaction in cooking over fire. The smells and flavours of smoke permeate the food and the results vary hugely depending whether you cook over a flame or smouldering coals. I like to use flame for steaks and then stick something on low and slow to cook gently. Something like wings, ribs or these pig cheeks.
A hugely underrated and terrific value cut of meat, pig cheeks are a dream to cook on the BBQ. They have a deep porky flavour and firm texture, and they are often cooked so that they yield and fall apart, functioning as a glamorous pulled pork. I don't know why people don't stop them before this, I love them cooked until before this point, still firm but rich and moist, and glorious coated in a dark glaze as I have here.
Pig cheeks BBQ very well when marinaded overnight in a soy based teriyaki marinade which functions not just in terms of flavour, but also as a brine. After an hour of gentle cooking the cheeks are tender and moist, and full of flavour. A gorgeous bite. Glazed with a reduction of the marinade cooked on the hob once the cheeks hit the fire. Like this with a slaw, or in a Japanese style taco with sweet Japanese mayonnaise, some sriracha, some sesame seeds and fresh coriander.
Enjoy! And do share what you think of them, and any ideas that you have for BBQ season.
BBQ Teriyaki PIg Cheeks
Preperation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 1 hour
serves 2
- 500g pig cheeks, trimmed (they are sold like this normally, if not ask your butcher to do it)
- 120ml soy sauce
- 120ml sake or dry sherry
- 60ml rice vinegar (or another light vinegar)
- 4 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp gojuchang (Korean chilli paste) or some coarsely chopped fresh chilli - optional, I like a little heat
Combine everything except the pig cheeks in a zip loc bag or the container in which you will marinade the pig cheeks.
Add the pig cheeks and mix well. Leave to marinade in the fridge overnight, or for as long as possible, at least 2 hours.
Fire up your BBQ / Big Green Egg. Once the charcoal starts to smoulder, bring the temperature to a stable 150 deg C (the BGE has a temperature gauge which makes this easy).
Remove the cheeks from the marinade and put on the grill. Turn occasionally. After an hour they will be done.
While the cheeks are cooking, reduce the leftover marinade by half on the hob to use as a sauce / glaze.
Eat as they are - so good! - with the reduced marinade. These work really well as a Japanese taco as specified in the post above.
Prep time is only 10 minutes, but try and budget for an overnight marinade also. You will get much better results.

Overnight Slow Roast Wild Garlic (Ramps) Porchetta (and Ponderings on an Irish Childhood)
Jump straight to Overnight Slow Roast Wild Garlic (Ramps) Porchetta
First things first, American readers, wild garlic is the same as ramps :)
I always wondered why I didn't know about wild garlic when I was growing up in the Irish countryside, and why the surrounding hedgerows and fields weren't full of it. There was 3 cornered leek, slender and more grassy with a longer season, but still with gorgeous oniony flowers. But no wild garlic at all. The answer became clear as I investigated, rural areas which have lots of dairy cattle don't have much of it because cows eat the wild garlic and it makes the milk very pungent. So the farmers dig it up. Once it takes root, if conditions are right, wild garlic will take over and spread. You will find it in the shade and with moist soil, you will often find them near patches of bluebells. Once I discovered this, I realised that we had had wild garlic all the time.
In an old abandoned stately home at the end of my road (not uncommon in Ireland), there was a beautiful wood which would be carpeted by bluebells and what we called white bluebells in Spring, and which I now realise was wild garlic. I loved that place and dreamed that one day I might own it. A big old house facing the Atlantic, it had a large wood on either side where we would go for conkers and fruit in Autumn and flowers in Spring. It had a walled garden with apple trees, cherry trees and gooseberry bushes. It was a secret garden that we would play in, the green door still intact and the white wall still high. There were abandoned old stables and a big house, still fully furnished. We found diaries, skis and a wedding dress when we investigated one day. There was a gorgeous small lodge at the entrance outside, which by now was a field full of cows. It was demolished to make way for a golf club, and I was devastated to discover it. Most of the local community were.
We spent much of our childhood wandering around here. The house slowly degraded and became dangerous so we weren't allowed go there but we still always would. The cows moved in from the field outside to the woods and the ground, and one day we were chased by some bulls (although I fear actually timid bullocks) and we spent hours up a tree waiting for them to go, having to dash across at one point and climb a thick briar, to be rescued from on top of the high external wall by my friends visiting cousin when he wandered past and heard us wailing. We brought a ladder another day to access the house from the first floor now that the downstairs was barred (remember: dangerous!) only to discover a hole in the window and a dead crow splayed on the ground. I took that as a sign and turned heel, with everyone else yelling chicken after me. Chicken maybe, but I just saw a dead crow!
This wasn't the only old abandoned house that we played in but it was by far the largest and the most magical. When people left Ireland in poverty, they left their houses behind to crumble with the weather and time. Woodhouse became one of their number and there are no photos that I can find of this gorgeous place. Likely it was much smaller than my child's eye remembers. Fond memories remain only.
Harvesting wild garlic as I was all those years ago, although with no idea, just to put in vases all around the house. I loved their pretty flowers. Now, I treasure the flowers and the leaves and do all I can to get my mitts on them in season. The flowers have a gorgeous sharp flavour, the leaves too but more sour. I buy it at the farmer's market, my friend Danny has a garden full and recently donated a plant to my cause, and last weekend I was in Cardiff and went foraging with my friend Abi. We found a riverside carpeted with it, it was more of a stream really. Tender small young leaves and mainly unopened flower buds, which I will pickle like capers.
With Danny's plant, I made a wild garlic porchetta. I had porchetta in my head since my last trip to Rome and I had to make it, if only to exorcise it from my brain. I adore porchetta when it is well made. At home it is tricky, you really need to seal the porchetta as well as you can so that you can retain the fat within, the fat is key to moisture and flavour and there is much of it in the meat. The best way to do this is to stitch the porchetta closed all round. You can seal the ends with tin foil too. I didn't have a butchers needle (although I have ordered one now) but I did have butchers twine, and so I wrestled my slippery porchetta just before midnight on a night last week and closed it as tightly as I could manage.
For porchetta, you want the loin and belly still as one joint (with the ribs removed). Ask your butcher to do this for you, one of my favourite butchers in London Turner and George prepared it expertly for me (they have an online shop and deliver too). I then blitzed some wild garlic leaves with some oil (rendered pork lard would have been better but I didn't have any), and rubbed it on to the flesh inside. I rolled it tight and tied it as best as I could – not terribly well if I am honest, I need to work on it – but the results were still gorgeous. I started it bright and furiously, then covered it with foil to roast overnight at a lower temperature. In the morning, my flat smelled gloriously porky with a perky sharp edge of wild garlic, I removed the foil and blasted it again until the skin was perfectly crisp. Roasting it slowly overnight will always give perfect crackling once you dry the skin before you put it in.
This was such a gorgeous dish. I recommend getting some friends around and serving it as you would a roast, or for a picnic in pizza bianca or gorgeous crusty bread. If you want to serve it for dinner, put it in first thing in the morning, it doesn't need to be overnight.
I have so many ideas for my wild garlic but I would love to hear yours too. Or do you have any favourite recipes that you could link me to? Thanks!

Overnight Slow Roast Wild Garlic Porchetta
serves 8 - the leftovers are brilliant also
- 1 x 4 to 5 kg porchetta joint (ask your butcher to prepare one with the belly and loin with ribs removed, and skin still on) - you won't regret making more, it is sandwich heaven
- 50g wild garlic leaves
- 2 tbsp oil like extra virgin olive oil or rapeseed oil (or pork dripping if you have it)
- sea salt and fresh cracked black pepper
- butcher's string
- aluminium foil to cover
- a deep roasting tray that will fit the roast comfortably
you will also need
This is best prepared in advance, although I have prepared it right before too, so don't stress too much if you don't have time.
Score the pork skin with a very sharp knife or craft / stanley knife, or have your butcher score it for you. Try to just cut the skin down to just before the fat but not below. If you go into the flesh, the flesh will lose moisture and you run the risk of drying the meat and the escaping moisture will kill the crackling on the way out.
Put the wild garlic and the oil in a food processor or blender, or chop the wild garlic finely and mix with the oil. Rub into the flesh (not the skin side), season with some sea salt and black pepper, and then roll the joint so it is skin side out and as tight as possible. This might be a bit of a slippery wrestle but it is worth it. Tie it tightly with string as best you can (there is lots of info online about butchers knots, mine were clumsy but worked). You really want it to be as tight as possible to maintain flavour and moisture as much as possible. You can cover the ends with foil which will help, and the gold standard is to stitch it all closed tightly with a butchers needle and string.
Dry the skin with kitchen towel, and if you have time, place it uncovered in the fridge for as long as you can, up to 8 hours, to dry out the skin completely.
Or just roast it, which is ok, just make sure the skin is very dry. You can even use a hair dryer here if you like (it works!). Season the skin with sea salt just before it goes in (and not earlier as it will draw moisture out).
Preheat your oven to as high as it goes and when hot place the porchetta in the tray and put it in. Blast it for about half an hour or until the skin starts to blister. Remove from the oven and turn the oven down to 130 deg C. Cover the porchetta with foil and put it back in the oven to roast it for 8 hours - or overnight.
Remove the foil and remove any excess fat that has rendered. This will be brilliant for roast potatoes another time. Turn the heat right back up for about 20 minutes, keeping an eye on it, until the crackling is perfectly crisp.
Remove from the oven and allow to rest for half an hour before serving. You can heat slices gently for warm sandwiches later too.
It is SO good, Enjoy!

Cooking, Pork, Salad, Summer, Vietnamese
Vietnamese Summer Rolls Two Ways: Chilli Salmon & Samphire Rolls and Pork Belly & Crackling Rolls
I am summer roll crazy right now. When at home I have made them at least twice a week, and always with different fillings. Sometimes prawns, sometimes tofu, and yesterday, with chilli and lime salmon and samphire, and then the ultimate pork belly & crackling. Crunch, swoosh, zing.
A summer roll is really just a beautifully packaged noodle salad. And a very portable one. Hello, lunch? Rice noodles (vermicelli) and friends, all neatly packaged in a water softened rice paper wrap. They seem complicated but they are not all that difficult to roll, with practice. After 3 or 4, you will have the knack, and they will take over your summer. I keep the noodle content low, as I find they get a bit rubbery if there is too much. I like to keep them packed with colour and freshness, grated carrot, fresh coriander and mint, and the zing of a fresh fruity not-so-hot chilli.
The wraps are fairly easy to source, I buy them in Chinatown usually but my local health food shop and supermarket stock them also. You can buy different sizes, I go for the bigger one, they are just easier. You can put whatever you want in your summer roll, I love these flavour combinations, and any leftover filling, should you have any, is perfectly good as a salad on its own.
Recipe: Vietnamese Summer Rolls Two Ways; Chilli Salmon & Samphire Rolls and Pork Belly & Crackling Rolls
Makes 12 – 16 depending on how big you make them
Vietnamese rice paper wraps – 12-16 to start but I suggest stacking up
50g vermicelli rice noodles, prepared according to packet instructions (mine needed to be soaked in boiling water for 12 minutes)
a handful of chopped fresh mint leaves
a handful of chopped fresh coriander leaves
1 mild fruity red chilli, seeds removed and finely chopped
1 carrot, grated
4 spring onions, finely chopped
Salmon filling
350g salmon
1 lime
good dried chilli
sea salt
fresh cracked black pepper
greaseproof paper
a handful of fresh samphire
Pork belly filling
750g pork belly with skin on (allowing some for the cook to nibble on while they work ;) )
1 tsp sea salt
2 tsp fennel seed
1 tsp black peppercorns
Pork belly – score the top using a sharp knife (or stanley knife – really, that skin is tough!) cutting through the skin until before the flesh. Don't cut through to the flesh as it will lose moisture while cooking which affects the crackling making it rubbery, and also makes the flesh dry. Put the pork on a wire tray (like a grill pan) skin side up and pour boiling water over it to puff the skin up. Drain and dry the skin with kitchen paper. Leave at room temperature for half an hour.
Preheat the oven to 220 deg C. In a pestle and mortar / spice grinder combine 1 tsp sea salt / 1 tsp black peppercorns / 2 tsp final and grind until a rough powder. Dry the pork belly skin again, completely, if you own a hair dryer this works well (again, really), I use kitchen paper, and rub the fennel mixture all over the pork – skin and flesh. Place in the oven at 220 deg C for 15 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 170 deg C and cook for a further 45 minutes. Check the skin, if not puffed up, blast at high heat for 5 minutes or place under the grill and keep a very close eye on it – it will burn quickly. Remove and leave to cool down a bit.
I cooked the salmon in the same oven for the last 20 minutes. Squeeze the lime over the salmon and top with a little sea salt, some chilli and pepper. Place on some greaseproof paper, enough to make a parcel (about 3 times the length and width) and fold the greaseproof paper tight on top to secure it. You can tie it with string but mine was fine like this. Cook for 20 minutes at 170 deg C. For the last two minutes add the samphire to the parcel, just to soften it. The samphire is also lovely raw so you can just put it in raw too). Remove from the oven and allow to cool down.
Combine the rest of the ingredients for the rolls – noodles, herbs et al.
Put about an inch of water in a bowl or deep plate large enough to fit the wraps (one at a time). Soak each one for 30 seconds or so, until just soft and pliable but not too soft (they will tear). You will get a feel for it.
Place a small amount of pork belly and crackling or salmon and samphire in the bottom centre third leaving an inch at the end (see photo). Place some of the noodle mixture on top. Fold each side over, then roll from the bottom (see photos).
Leave on a plate while you roll the others. Leave space between them or they will stick.
Eat immediately or store covered in cling film in the fridge.
Good, eh?!
Jet lag hit hard and so did a salmonella relapse, something that I didn't even know could happen. Roll on Sunday morning where I finally felt nearly human, and decided to embrace the world by heading to gorgeous Columbia Road Flower Market in East London with a friend.
If you have not been, Columbia Road Flower Market is a joyful place and a London landmark in the East End. It is a small street, lined now with cafés and restaurants, and packed with flower sellers known for their enthusiasm and high spirits as they attempt to engage the heaving mass of passers by. It gets very busy. Thronged.
