About

This is the current manifestation of the nunovo project. It started in 2001, with a bit of webspace provided by Telewest/Blueyonder, and moved over to the current domain a few years later. It ran as a Drupal CMS for a year, then went into something of a hiatus while experimenting with various blogging packages.  This implementation is an experiment with a category-based layout, where two categories (Rag & Bag) show up as sidebars rather than in the main column.

Here’s the current list of tags for the site

Rotten Market

There are times I go to the city centre fruit & veg market thinking I’ll get a really good deal on something; like the two very superior bunches of celery I got for £1 this past Saturday. Big, crisp, not at all bitter. One went straight into the soup pot, along with some sautéed onion, some grilled courgette, and a lacing of cumin. The first soup for colder weather, and very satisfying in its way.

But there are times I go to the market and come away with something only to discover it really belongs in the …
