Here's something I did earlier!
For part of my course, I had to find two articles on a style of cuisine, and write an essay about said cuisine with the information I gleaned from them. Now, I got a little carried away. This is what I come up with, and I hope you find it entertaining and at least slightly informational. I'm proud of it, but I don't reckon it's quite what my ( Read more... ) -

D.I.Y Bandaging.
Because I'm a daft fool, last friday I ended up chopping into my thumb whilst chopping cabbage very fast with a big, sharp knife for someone else (the same dish what I ended up burning the otherhand with about half an hour later) leaving me with a nice slit going half way around my thumb and into my finger nail.
