Home chemistry

I have two pots bubbling on my stove at the moment. One contains boiling eggs, and the other contains a tarnished silver necklace with some aluminium foil in a solution of baking soda. Both are producing hydrogen sulphide for different reasons. For some reason I found that weirdly satisfying.

Finishing up ingredients again

I am going away for some weeks and need to finish up as much perishable food as I can. The end of a lump of cheese and a slice of black forest ham became fancy cheese on toast. Then I had half a kilo of cherry tomatoes, half a garlic and a couple of inches of leek on its last legs. Chopped up everything and simmered for half an hour and now when I come back, I will have 2 jars of tomato sauce to enjoy. It did take some dedication to eat my 8 baby avocadoes but I managed it. 3 eggs still left to go.
