What are your jeans doing today?

[Alec Leamas]

Such a good day! I am not in any way wishing time away as I love the stage I am in with my family (1 and 3 year old) - but to wake up and be able to go out and do all that solo on a Sunday while kids are sleeping is incredibly enticing!

It has it's benefits but i wouldn't swap it.. when my kid was little we were out in the Peaks every weekend, camping, hiking, fishing, bike riding and such, it was exhausting but incredibly rewarding.. our tent got trampled by cows so i bought a swanky replacement Snow Peak tent.. lockdown happened and he turned into a teenager thereafter, the tent never got used so i sold it.. he now goes camping with his mates.. he's got a Pure e-scooter so he doesn't even rely on me for transport..

His hands were cold last week so i suggested we went to Decathlon today to buy gloves but he was too busy with his mates.. we're supposed to be doing some father / son clothes shopping in Manchester during October half term.. i can pretty much guarantee this ain't going to happen due to his busy schedule.. so make the most of it while you can.

Peeps who i used to ride with are either too busy with young families or too out of shape to keep up so you end up doing a lot of shit by yourself.. which might sound heavanly now.. but trust me, it gets old fast.

Being one of the judges is in the pizza pants contest, I took on a side hustle as a pizza baker.

My friends made a pizza oven on a bike and go around to party’s and events. I sometimes help them

Yesterday my girlfriend and I went to a vintage market and I snagged some great pieces. Everything but the baseball tee and the Jeff Gordon tee were from the same vendor and he cut me a deal that made my day. Been wanting a varsity jacket for a while now so that was a good find. 

Then back at her apartment I cooked some lions mane mushrooms to make tacos. Never cooked these before but had them once or twice. It's impressive how well you can make them taste and feel like meat (at least from what I can remember). They were fun to cook too. 

Today she and I went for a bike ride along the Ohio Erie canal towpath. It's nearing the end of September and it's still mid 80s here in Ohio, and I'm over it. I want to wear jackets already.

My Iron Hearts and I went to the apple orchard/pumpkin farm with my grandsons. Had a great day. At the end of the day number 1 was a bit worn out and number 2 was still ready to go.

I was in Hope last November for a weekend hiking with my mates from school. It’s a great spot. 
We went to the Cheshire Cheese for dinner and Beers. Lovely open fires that time of year. Good ales too. Very nice. Going back this November.

When i used to take my kid, and the neighbours kid hiking up Kinder, we would stop at the Cheshire on the way home, i'd get a pint of their own stout and sit in front of the fire and the kids would get a massive slice of chocolate cake from the dessert menu which would come with 1 jug of hot chocolate sause and 1 jug of cream.. awesome!

Got up this morning and made the sleepy teenagers some breakfast.. a recipe of my own creation.. greek yogurt, toasted waffles and blossom honey.. they didn't get back from their hike till 12.30am

..went to Fox House

..picked a few boletes

..headed out to Mam Tor,

..i'd seen some folks picking mushrooms here last week while on my bike ride.. they looked more like gentle hippies than Guardian reading micro-dosers.. which was a good sign

..yellow club fungus

..scarlet waxcap

..but these^ were not what i'd come for today

..bit of prep

..and some fan assisted air drying
