This is being placed here for my own possible records and for others to use if so desired. This is based on recipes online and an interpretation of restaurants that I occasionally frequent. The point of these recipes is to achieve the best taste, in the quickest possible time, at the cheapest possible price. That's why the ingredients are somewhat non-traditional at times. Here's the other thing, it's obvious that they can be altered quickly and easily to suit other core ingredients. Don't be afraid to experiment.

For a while now I've wondered whether it's possible to create a chicken sweet corn soup using leftover roast chicken and cheap ingredients that was really simple and quick. It is.

The following ingredients are required:
- leftover roast chicken
- creamed corn
- chicken stock (can be powdered or liquid)
- water
- fish sauce
- soy sauce
- salt
- leek (optional)
- green vegetables (such as asparagus or spinach)(optional)
- eggs (optional)
- garlic (optional)
- onion (optional)
- ginger (optional)
- fried shallots (optional)
- dried shrimp (optional)

Tear up roast chicken flesh and and throw into pot of water or chicken stock (it doesn't matter if you leave the stuffing, bones, skin, etc... on because it'll break up over time). Add creamed corn to pot. Boil this pot. Drop eggs in and stir mixture so that it creates white streaked look that you see in restaurant soup of similar style. Add vegetables and any other optional ingredients you may like. Add salt, fish sauce, and/or soy sauce to taste.

It'll look something like the following:

- This lawnmower is a workhorse - I bought it locally from a mower shop who also sell serviced old machines years ago - they insisted the older ones are simple, always start and made tough - I haven't had any problems. It comes with catcher and plastic petrol bottle. The throttle lever/cable has been replaced but currently starts by manually pushing the lever forward and back to turn on and off. Inspections welcome.  Pick up Spotswood.

- Britain's royal family is among the world's most famous organizations -- and a costly one as well.
These days, the royal family is known for their lavish weddings, expansive tours and notable fashion as much as they are for their contributions to their nation.
But how do they pay for their security, travel, dining and more?
According to the BBC, the royals amass their fortune, in part, through the taxpayer-funded Sovereign Grant.
However, the queen and the other royals get the money in return for surrendering the profits from their slew of properties -- called the Crown Estate -- to the government, according to Business Insider.
Each year, the queen will receive an amount from the grant equivalent to 25% of the Crown Estate's profits, the outlet reports.
The grant will pay for the palace upkeep, the family's travel, royal employee payroll and more, but according to the Telegraph, the Grant doesn't cover costs for security and royal ceremonies, per BI.
Money for such assets and events comes from a portfolio of land that the family has owned for generations called the Duchy of Lancaster.
The Duchy is made up of residential, commercial, and agricultural properties, Insider reports, and contains $715 million worth of net assets.
In 2019, the portfolio earned $27 million, The Wall Street Journal reports.
The money is put toward "expenses incurred by other members of the royal family," as the royal family's website puts it.
As one would expect from a monarch, Queen Elizabeth II also outright owns a massive art collection, Balmoral and Sandringham Estates and more, according to a WSJ podcast.
Another Duchy -- the Duchy of Cornwall -- covers expenses for the queen's son Prince Charles and his family and heirs. The Duchy of Cornwall covers Duchess Camilla as well as Prince William and his family, BI reports.
Charles' son Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle are financially independent and will earn money through their deals signed with Netflix and Spotify.
According to the outlet, The Wall Street Journal placed the value of the Duchy of Cornwall at $1.2 billion in 2019.
In total, the queen and Prince Charles control most of the family's money and divide it among the various family members.
Other, more distantly related members of the family, like Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, hold full-time careers outside of the royal family.

- Prime Minister Boris Johnson led the condemnation of the riot describing the scenes as "unacceptable", Home Secretary Priti Patel said "thuggery and disorder" would never be tolerated.
Andy Marsh, chief constable of Avon and Somerset Police, said the demonstration had been "hijacked" by several hundred "extremists".
Bristol mayor Marvin Rees, who said he had "major concerns" about the Government's Bill, condemned the thuggery but said the disorder would be used to justify the legislation.
The Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill would give the police in England and Wales more power to impose conditions on non-violent protests, including those deemed too noisy or a nuisance.
Those convicted under the proposed legislation could face a fine or jail.

- Medieval and early modern lawyers chose to write on sheepskin parchment because it helped prevent fraud, new analysis suggests.
Experts have identified the species of animals used for British legal documents dating from the 13th to 20th century, and have discovered they were almost always written on sheepskin, rather than goatskin or calfskin vellum.
This may have been because the structure of sheepskin made attempts to remove or modify text obvious.
Sheep deposit fat in-between the various layers of their skin. During parchment manufacture, the skin is submerged in lime, which draws out the fat leaving voids between the layers. Attempts to scrape off the ink would result in these layers detaching—known as delamination—leaving a visible blemish highlighting any attempts to change any writing.
