At 2 Blokes, we try and keep you on your toes, its time for you to put those toes up and enjoy a lovely meal, here is a hearty recipe for you in the lead up to ChristmasChristmas Roast Chicken with Cranberry Sauce and Root VegetablesIngredients:For the Roast Chicken:1 whole chicken (about 4-5 pounds)4 tablespoons olive oil2 tablespoons butter, melted1 lemon, halved1 bunch of fresh rosemary4 garlic cloves, mincedSalt and pepper to taste1 cup chicken brothFor the Cranberry Sauce:2 cups fresh cranberries1 cup orange juice1/2 cup sugar1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon1/4 teaspoon ground clovesFor the Root Vegetables:4 large carrots, peeled and cut into chunks3 parsnips, peeled and cut into chunks2 large potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks2 tablespoons olive oilSalt and pepper to taste1 tablespoon fresh thyme, choppedInstructions:1. Preheat the Oven:Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).2. Prepare the Chicken:Remove the chicken giblets and rinse the chicken inside and out. Pat dry with paper towels.Rub the chicken all over with olive oil, then drizzle with melted butter.Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper, both inside and out.Stuff the cavity with the lemon halves and rosemary bunch.Place the chicken in a roasting pan. Add the minced garlic around the chicken.Pour the chicken broth into the bottom of the pan to keep the chicken moist during roasting.3. Roast the Chicken:Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh.Baste the chicken with the pan juices every 30 minutes to keep it moist and flavorful.If the chicken skin is browning too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil.4. Make the Cranberry Sauce:While the chicken is roasting, prepare the cranberry sauce.In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, orange juice, sugar, cinnamon, and cloves.Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cranberries burst and the sauce thickens.Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.5. Roast the Root Vegetables:Toss the carrots, parsnips, and potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and fresh thyme.Spread the vegetables out on a baking sheet.Roast in the oven (you can do this simultaneously with the chicken if there's space) for about 35-45 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and golden brown, stirring halfway through.6. Serve:Once the chicken is done, let it rest for about 10-15 minutes before carving.Serve the roast chicken alongside the roasted root vegetables.Spoon the cranberry sauce over the chicken or serve it on the side.Enjoy your hearty Christmas meal with family and friends!

The Moon is considered part of humanity's shared heritage and is not owned by any one country, corporation, or individual. This principle is established by the Outer Space Treaty of 1967, a cornerstone of space law signed by over 110 countries, including all major spacefaring nations.Key provisions of the treaty include:No Sovereignty: Nations cannot claim sovereignty over the Moon or any celestial body. This means no country can declare the Moon as its territory.Peaceful Purposes: The Moon must only be used for peaceful purposes, prohibiting military bases or weapons of mass destruction.Benefit for All: Space exploration, including activities on the Moon, should benefit all humanity.The Moon Agreement of 1979 attempted to expand on these ideas by suggesting that the Moon and its resources are the "common heritage of mankind" and that resource extraction should be regulated internationally. However, the agreement has been ratified by only a few countries, and none of the major spacefaring nations (like the U.S., Russia, or China) are parties to it.In practice, there's growing ambiguity about how lunar resources will be governed. Recent initiatives like the Artemis Accords (led by NASA) and China's plans for a lunar research station highlight the need for updated frameworks to manage activities such as mining, which could complicate the "public space" concept.So, while the Moon is legally a "public space" under current treaties, the specifics of resource ownership and governance are still evolving.

Love at The Chicken InnOn a brisk autumn evening, the scent of fried chicken and warm biscuits drifted through the air at The Chicken Inn, the town's favorite diner. George, a shy middle-aged man with thick glasses and a penchant for plaid shirts, pushed open the door. The bell jingled, announcing his arrival. He shuffled to his usual booth, a small corner spot near the window where he could watch the world go by without being noticed.George wasn't much for company. His days were spent working at the local library, and his evenings consisted of quiet dinners at the diner and reading mystery novels in his small apartment. Tonight seemed no different, until he noticed someone—or rather, something—seated at the counter.There, perched on a bright red stool, was a pig. A real pig. Its rosy snout sniffed the air, its hooves rested delicately on the counter, and a tiny blue bow adorned its ear. George blinked, thinking he'd finally lost his mind. But no, the pig was very much real, and even stranger, the other diners didn't seem the least bit perturbed.“Hey there, George!” called Clara, the bubbly waitress. “Same as usual?”George nodded, though his gaze remained fixed on the pig. It turned its head and met his eyes. To George's shock, it smiled—a soft, knowing smile that made his heart skip a beat.“Don't stare too long,” Clara whispered as she set down his coffee. “That's Penelope. She's a regular.”“A… regular?” George managed, his voice barely above a whisper.Clara chuckled. “Sure is. Comes in every Thursday for apple pie. Sweetest thing you'll ever meet.”As if on cue, Penelope oinked softly and trotted toward George's booth. She climbed up onto the seat across from him, tilting her head as if to say, Mind if I join you?George's face turned crimson, but he nodded. “Uh, hi.”Penelope squealed lightly in response and tapped the menu with her hoof. Clara appeared moments later, placing a slice of apple pie in front of the pig and a basket of fried chicken for George. “You two enjoy,” she said with a wink before walking away.At first, George wasn't sure what to do. He was used to solitude, not sharing meals with charming farm animals. But as the minutes passed, he found himself relaxing. Penelope had a warmth about her, a calm presence that made him feel less alone. They sat in companionable silence, George nibbling on a drumstick while Penelope daintily enjoyed her pie.When Penelope finished, she nudged a napkin toward him with her snout. He laughed—a real, hearty laugh he hadn't heard from himself in years. “You're something else,” he said, his eyes twinkling.From that night on, George and Penelope became inseparable. Every Thursday, they met at The Chicken Inn, sharing stories without words and finding joy in each other's company.In a world that often felt too big and too lonely, George discovered love in the most unexpected place—sitting across from a bow-wearing pig at a little diner called The Chicken Inn.
