It’s been a light blogging week for me. I’m working hard on a writing project for Wellbeing – something interesting they’re releasing early next year.

But I shall be back properly next week. For a few days of food made from the pantry. I’ve had some entries already and am going to post a couple of recipes of my own.

In the meantime, here’s the usual Friday Quicklinks. Plus a photo of my fridge – which is for Wendy.

• Baked French toast: I had to include Sophie’s champion looking recipe for baked cottage cheese French toast. I think we’ll have this over the weekend.
• Fast food hits the Mediterranean: According to the NY Times the Mediterranean diet is in retreat in its home region. And obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease are on the rise.
• Walnut-pecan balls: Love the look of these walnut-pecan balls. You can use them as finger food, serve with a tomato sauce or shape into burgers. Thanks to Cassie for pointing them out.
• Easy ways with fish: Five seafood recipes from Nigel Slater: autumn fish suppers.
• How do you sharpen life’s pencil?: I’m enjoying the Take 2 series on Forever Change where Leanne highlights two posts which cover the same subject in different ways. The latest is on sharpening life’s pencil.
• Tofu with lemongrass: Another outstanding recipe from lucy at Nourish Me. The latest is for tofu laced with lemongrass and coriander.
• Meat vs vegetarian: Joanna Blythman writes in the Guardian about why going veggie is not British in the wonderfully titled Keep your hands off my rump . . .
