Hard for people to be in lockdown.

Canon -> Macro, EFS 60mm 1: 2.8 USM
The objective was more expensive than the camera. 
It’s a cheap EOS 100D
But I am not a skilled photographer at all.
Its the Macro and GIMP , indeed.

Walked 6 miles today. I only needed Black Pudding. My 1 hour allowed became over 2 hours. Ooops. 
I walk with my 8.4" tablet, walking and two-handed typing. Helps pass the time in the queues.

Black Pudding.
Otherwise known as Abattoir floor sweepings.
Cheap+nutritious.
Don’t know, never went it - the queue was too long to bother. Oh well just keep walking!

Have you got in touch with “Presssack” when living in München?

Possible. Chew, don’t look.
Looks like Abattoir Floor sweepings doesn’t it? Is that a finger nail?
The 2 meter social distancing in shops just calls for some background music…
Looking forward to when face masks compulsory.

If you’ve gone out for black pudding the 1hr rule doesn’t apply, Borris told me

Yuck…I like a bit of blood in my steaks but never taken to black pudding…its kinda essentially a big scab 
Well the weekend is upon us, so I think homemade Chicken Enchiladas (and Tequila) could be a good start

Hey guys, hope you’ve all had a great week are are fighting fit?
Today, I only realised it was Saturday just before lunch when I realised the radio presenter was different to what I expected!
Anyone else completely lots with the days?
Today we have been baking, just a simple banana loaf.
Funny story, i completed the online shop in hurry and I clicked 5kg instead of 5 individual bananas.
After that we used the chocolate bar maker and melted down a lot of the chocolate from Easter.
Whatever you have planned today, have a fun and peaceful day.

Did you put cut bananas on top of the bread? This was a classic food we ate as kids, but we never thought of this.
Have you tried walnuts in the bread?

Hey @TechMan hope you’re keeping well.
Yeah, sliced banana in half, smeared the cut side with lemon juice to stop it browning too much.
4 bananas, brown sugar, flour, couple of eggs and a few other bits and an hour in the oven.
Have t tried nuts, this is our debut, maybe next time.
Now the proof is in the eating, we will try it after our evening meal

Nice. I always eat it with butter, but maybe I’m just weird

We should start a “housewife’s thread” swapping recipes!
Andrew, come on!
Bake a cake!
The banana cake looks absolutely perfect.
Same Charlie’s pralines.
I see from his face he loves to do.
But tell him, confectioner is a hard job.
Hahaha!
Hoarding bananas now 
Often its only ONE false click to get ruined, Paul! 
My wife is “boiling down” jam.
Mixture of orange and rhubarb.
The jams from UK are very famous!
Could be one of your next projects!
But now lets think about what to do with the bananas!

As well as never making it before I’ve never eaten it either.
So I might just try that @TechMan

Panic buying bananas
I gave half to our neighbour, they are nice people and always giving little things to Charlie.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory springs to mind.
I love a nice jam, especially on toast.
Maybe your wife could put some in a plastic jar and post to us here in the UK.

I had Wednesday off work, and I did a bunch of baking, and donated it to a local food pantry. A lot more people are going to the pantry since so many are out of work.
