a square egg. Square tomatoes as well. Square mushrooms don't work very well.

DDW's January Challenge Day 13: "Square"

"Go to work on an egg" was an advertising slogan used by the United Kingdom's Egg Marketing Board during the 1950s as part of more than £12 million it spent on advertising, including a series of television adverts starring the comedian Tony Hancock and actress Patricia Hayes in 1965.

This was more about trying to achieve an idea that I had in mind as opposed to producing a stunning photograph. Now I appreciate what is possible, I will explore the technique further (liquify filter in PhotoShop for anyone interested).

Matthew's dinner last night was very successful. A whole chicken roast on a bed of vegetables, and the juices used to make a lemony sauce by adding white wine and creme fraiche. All served with rice. I will add this to my recipe book as it is a good one pot meal.
