Like almost every other kid, we practised and practised our signature. But it seems plenty of adults are not happy with where they’ve landed and are getting a new one thanks to calligraphers who have set up businesses for this very purpose. Cue a list of famous autographs (umm what’s going on with Angelina Jolie…).

Daisy Jones and the Six drops on Amazon Prime this morning, and we’re here for it, mainly because it’s the only book we read in 2019… Reece Witherspoon’s production house is behind it (tick). It’s a mockumentary of an all-conquering 70s band that walks away at the peak of their fame (tick). And we’ll be beside ourselves if the 10 eps are in our favoured 28-minute format (tick pending)…

This was a very dangerous dessert recipe to find because we know there will be ways we can convince ourselves that this pineapple/caramel tarte tartin is a perfectly reasonable thing to make midweek. For dinner, even… We used tinned pineapple rings for ours because midweek cooking is all about taking shortcuts…
