I remember laying in my bed - the image of brightly coloured shapes on the bed sheets comes to … Continue reading The Day I Flew
Six years ago when we moved into our house we found out that our oven was lame. After some very questionable meals we eventually solved the mystery, discovering that all we had to do was set it 100 degrees higher than the temperature we were actually going for.
