VICTORY IS MINE! I stopped at a small neighbourhood supermarket l don’t usually frequent looking for spaghetti (l was on my way home and it was convenient) and spotted this lone jar of dijon in the condiments section. And now it’s MINE ALL MINE! ✨✨✨

When I was asking Big Al for oil sprayer advice (he’d just bought one for his new air fryer) somehow the topic of pepper grinders came up, how they never last, etc and he told me he’d stopped using them and uses a mortar and pestle instead. And then I happened to see this while I was out looking for a sprayer. Gotta admit it’s a bit more work, but at least it will keep on working as long as I do. 😉 And look! It fits perfectly in the spice cupboard next to my happy-making lazy susan.

The Stormcooker™️ came with a little rack and 5 skewers and, although there are a whack of accessories out there that you can buy for air fryers, this seemed sufficient. Until I realised how handy it would be to be able to SPRAY OIL on various food items (especially as so many recipes say “spray with oil…”). So I had a look on amazon and there were so many kinds of oil sprayers it made me dizzy. Eventually I found this one in a shop around the corner from me and I liked that it also doubled as a cruet. AND it’s cute! However, although it sprayed water just fine (while I was washing it) it actually squirts out oil in a hard stream. Not exactly the effect I was hoping for. Maybe it’s because I’m using olive oil? Perhaps a lighter oil would spray? On the other hand, those promo pics definitely show OLIVES next to the sprayer. Whatevs.

I don’t remember when I started making meatballs like this but today I was doing some meatball prep and put these pics up on my instagram and twitter (because, hey why not) and apparently I’m a genius. Or at least Simon thinks so. 🙂

Not only will I NEVER cook bacon again other than in the STORMCOOKER™️… I just can’t seem to get enough of my favourite everything-in-one sandwich – The BLT (those bibs are coming in handy!). Summer Sandwich 2022. What’s yours?
