Ngl, happy with how these turned out - may have been the best wings Iβve made so far! #foodsky
Looks delicious! Nice addition with the mustard too π
Happy Birthday! π₯³

A photo of the book: The Catcher in the Rye by J.D Salinger
7) The Catcher in the Rye by J.D Salinger. Wasnβt sure as the story reached the middle, but it really grew on me. Holdenβs all over the place, but the ending came together brilliantly and I understood it and Holdenβs mentality in the end! #booksky
Happy Birthday! Hope you have a good one π₯³
Oh agree - twisters are the best!
A picture of the book - Aliceβs Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll
5 & 6) Aliceβs Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll. Carrollβs imagination is pure magic! Both books are full of curious creatures and clever wordplay that draw you right in. Timeless classics that reminds us it's okay to be wonderfully weird π

Post run - such a lovely morning for my first #parkrun in a while! Slowly improving my 5k time and edging closer to 28mins πββοΈπ
Image of a book: The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells
4) The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells. A classic for a reason and it still holds up! The alien threat feels genuinely real, but it's the human response that hits hardest. More about survival, the human response and resilience than solely focusing on the invasion. Definitely worth the read
Book - SPQR: A history of Ancient Rome by Mary Beard
Unfortunately couldnβt keep to my target (will hopefully catch up throughout the year) butβ¦
3) SPQR by @wmarybeard.bsky.social - fantastic and vivid read that brilliantly explains the origins of Rome from village to empire. Highly recommend if interested in Roman history!
Now I feel bad π Eurovision in a few weeks though π

FranΓ§ais - getting there slowly but surely! Are you learning anything?
Definitely reduced my time on that but still has a few accounts that I check in on every so often! π¬
