Desperate TimesStranded in a hotel in an African war zone with no internet access for two weeks, I was forced to resort to desperate measures. Possessing only my passport and the clothes I stood up in; and the warning "You can catch it shaking hands with a vicar out there" ringing in my ears, I had to draw my own porn in order to preserve my sanity.
Alas, it all came out looking like Coronation Street's Audrey Roberts, but, as they say, any port in a storm.

capersSalted are better than pickled. I chopped them finely to a similar consistency to the wholegrain mustard. And the garlic was crushed. It was to celebrate getting a lovely Mauviel copper pan.
