Good news: Planning Dept. has granted permission to progress with getting the building permit to start constructing BCCC. I’ve been working with Mo Hamza@ PowerSavers to get energy efficient air con/water heating system installed. Hopefully Finance dept. [...]

    Bite my bun

    Growing up, this cultural Christian celebration marked my favourite holiday. Sprawling in bed this morning, I wondered why it was so enjoyable and memorable. Perhaps it was the unlimited supply of fluffy raisin bread, cinnamon swirled, hot-cross buns and fish cakes followed by oodles of sweets and chocolates to get; plenty of good food and sugar pumping the endorphins. Since [...]

    She’s another whitey that popped out into existence on Friday night/Saturday morning. Dubbed Encore by Mr. Tucker and separated near after birth to help the kid build a  relationship of trust which makes the farm work less of a hassle. Milk production is booming now. Maybe a couple kills in the near future due to [...]

  • loquat picking with J.Barnes

    Nearly old but not quite there yet

    Like most of us busily generating, Johnny Barnes continues his commitment of morning meet and greets at the round-a-bout near where Crow Lane Bakery was. As I was reviewing Facebook just before Christmas, I glimpsed some guy whining about the ‘grumpy old man’. Judgments aren’t always easy to deal with. I tried opening the thread [...]

    About as Useless as Tits on a Bull

    There are lots of trinkets and tools that are created and marketed to make cookery and kitchen work ‘easier’. Initially,  this Pyrex tool seemed enjoyable, and safer than the generic can opener as it left no sharp edges. I’ve heard horror stories of stray animals that get their heads trapped in cans that haven’t had [...]

    Scandal

    Sitting at my desk here after a full day of communications, deliveries, and product development on Tucker’s Goat Farm. It’s been a very successful day for www.ashtucker.com. Lots of new interested people emailing inquiring about various services available.   **Content extracted due to recent physical threats and curses cast onto yours truly**    

  • pre pressing the curds

    Cheesy Productions

    Great success at Tucker’s Goat Farm today. In between instruction and jokes with Mr. Tucker, we were able to press 4 Tom molds from 12 gallons of milk. Two were rubbed with salt while the other half are set to soak in brine for 3 hrs. The raw milk will be ready to sample in [...]

    UPDATE: Bermuda’s Culinary Creation Centre

    Waiting for charities commission to say yay or nay to the proposed charity, Bermuda’s Culinary Creation Centre (BCCC). Bermuda Fire Department (Mr. Albouy & Mr. Denkins) deemed the old BI -also known as The Cultural Community Centre- unsafe for much of any activity. Someone has stripped the whole building of it’s fire alarm system just [...]

    I don’t generally eat meat but I’d eat his kids!

    My Folklore Apprenticeship has officially kicked-off. A program headed by the Department of Community & Cultural Affairs allows my development of  skills and network expansion while shadowing Mr. Tucker from Tucker’s Goat Farm. Most of the mums have popped out their kids; however, we can still expect 3-5 more. The other day while at the [...]

    Breakfast for One

    It all stared out with a loaf of stale almond bread and my grumbling desire for a helping of breakfast food. I could have made an omelet with the grape tomatoes, Gouda, Manchego and spring onions kickin’ it in the fridge but I figured it would be best to use up this tapered loaf. The [...]
