  • A New Air Fryer And Singleness

    Been experimenting with the air fryer I got for Christmas from Celie (my landlady), another cooking thingy to add to my countertop kitchen.

Who wouldn’t want to sample snack treats from across the globe, to see (taste) what other folk’s version of chips… Continue reading
