The 17 Blog Posts That Weren’t

The Fife Diet from Kamikaze Cookery
I’ve been following Kamikaze Cookery (three geeks doing cookery… with science!) for a while now, and it’s got some real potential, but what really sold me on it was their recent series on the Fife diet (yeah, I know, it’s been out for ages, but… Continue reading

Bryn’s Challenge – Update
