INGREDIENTS (Serves 4)
- 400 grams dried farfalle
- olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 glove of garlic, finely chopped
- 150 grams diced bacon
- 300 ml heavy cream
- 150 grams peas
- 60 grams grated parmesan cheese
- handful of freshly chopped parsley and sage
METHOD
Boil up a pan of water with a bit of salt added and cook the farfalle pasta according to the instructions on the package.
Heat up a frying pan and add a splash of olive oil. Add the bacon and cook for 3-4 minutes on big flame until nice and browned. Then add the onions and chopped garlic. Cook until the onions are softened.
Add the cream to the mix, bring it up to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Add the peas to the creamy mixture and simmer again for another 3-4 minutes.
Add the grated parmesan cheese and stir it into the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste.
The pasta should be about ready by now. Drain it off add it to the sauce. Add the herbs and mix it up nicely so the pasta gets a good coating.
Serve with a bit of remaining parmesan and herbs sprinkled on top.

Two racoons keeping each other warm in the cold winter weather
The perfect ending to a perfect vacation in Lake District, UK. A rare day of wintery sunshine with an amazing sunset. What a beautiful place.
The world as Steve Jobs saw it:
When you grow up you tend to get told the world is the way it is and you’re life is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much. Try to have a nice family, have fun, save a little money.
For an automated script we needed to calculate the first business day of the month. That turned out to be somewhat of a challenge. Here’s the code we came up with: (Inspired by Gledison’s last business day of the week!)
function FirstBusinessDay($year, $month, $day)
{
$today = "$year-$month-$day";
$fbday = 1;
$wday = date("N",strtotime("$year-$month-$fbday"));
if ($wday == 6) $fbday += 2; // saturday?
if ($wday == 7) $fbday += 1; // sunday?
$fbday = date("Y-m-d",strtotime("$year-$month-$fbday"));
if ($fbday == $today) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
• 250g good-quality semi-cured whole chorizo
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 4 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon runny honey
METHOD
Slice the chorizo into 2cm rounds. Put into the small frying pan with a splash of olive oil and toss occasionally until golden and crisp.
Lightly bash 2 unpeeled cloves of garlic with the heel of your hand or the bottom of a saucepan and add to the pan.
Carefully drain away most of the fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon of it behind. Add the red wine vinegar and runny honey and leave to reduce down to a really sticky glaze. Keep an eye on it, giving the pan a shake every so often so it doesn’t catch.
