Just about to head out to the bakery on the corner for a banh mi and coffee. The word on the street is that they’ve just done a batch of coconut slice. Does anyone else want some?
yes please 😊

Decided I’m actually not going out today. The weather is just terrible and I want to sit outside lol
Will probably go on Wednesday arvo, as the weather looks better
Time to hurry up and chill
Give us all a heads up on the time cause down for some b’day drinks :)
Will do! 😸
I wish to register a complaint. These hot twiggy sticks are not.
One minute in the microwave should fix them. I saw this on tv.
What a prehistoric solution
Strongly agree. Dip them in one of your hot sauces.
Bite the ends off and do a hot sauce Tim Tam slam
I feel like I should get a prize for cleaning the house with a migraine.
Throwback to early days


Breakfast!

looks delicious
Oh yum.
Heater is on
yup,
had to turn the heater on for the fish ( haven’t got his heater yet ) and now I’ve turned on the heater in my office
clear skies today 😊
There’s so much good music in this city. Unexpected for a place that is at the end of the world. Hell yeah Melbourne.
Watched Tucker and Dale vs Evil again 4.5/5 hobbits
oodies for seagoons for this winter have been bought 👚🔥
Fuzzbutt was crying outside so I hurriedly made up the tent… but he got impatient and left. Didn’t get to give the meds. Hopefully he comes back.
I’m thinking of slinging some winter warmer poverty meals out there but don’t know whether to put it in Aussie Frugal or Food Australia
YL is dog sitting (staying at the house). I got this text.

Question: If someone was staying at your house on their own for 2 weeks what might they find strange?
so many books but very few novels
a complete mish mash of interior design styles
No microwave. Number of plastic dinosaurs? Number of things that are not black? Ask Witchy I guess 😺
Dinosaurs are not strange. Extinct, yes. Strange, no. At least for anyone that has ever had children in the house plastic dinos are normal.
Bed in a non-bedroom room because of upcoming works.
The random tent inside. Either to be used as emergency ringworm cat accommodation or I can sit or sleep in there to save on heating bills this winter.

The sheer quantity of tea
The amount of pointless shit in the shed.
Sometimes some stuff ends up being handy though.
Absence of a tv.
What a weird layout the joint is, it’s a whole lot of renovations cobbled together. It’s a rabbit warren in a trenchcoat 😂. Maybe also all the weird noises and stuff in the main part of the house. But mainly the quantity of art and craft supplies crammed into my part of the house, a fairly small space. I’ve got enough stuff here to power a small primary school 😆
Me, because I never actually left and I’m watching them from the closet
Giant disco ball in the entry area.
Yep. This would confuse. Also the sex room extension.
I have been thinking way too much about this sex room thing lately and it just seems inherently creepy to me.
You gotta watch the show. Some of the rooms were done nice if you don’t look at what’s hanging on the walls.
Well I also don’t have a toaster (I use a cast iron griddle instead)
Your cupboards would be rifled through.
Zucchini Slice tonight 🙂
Haven’t yet decided, but I’m considering nipping down Lydiard St for a kebab
Steak, roast sweet potato, roast cauliflower, rocket salad at my place.
I love a good steak once in a while.
Stir fry of pork fillet & bok choy with mashed potato. Various tasty sauces according to whim.
I love a good whim
Behold, my $275 wooden spoon

Assembly was required. Fortunately there was an expert instructor and all tools required.
It started out as a chunk of firewood, then we used an axe and various carving tools to turn it into a spoon. The wood is from a nectarine tree. Once it has dried out fully in a few weeks time I can sand and oil it to finish it off.
It was rather hard work, and I am definitely cancelling tomorrows planned weightlifting session, as I am unlikely to be able to grip anything, let alone lift it.
I also got a bonus couple of garbage bags full of woodchips to put on the garden.
Did you do that? Nice job.
I was wanting to learn how to whittle but not sure I can be trusted with a proper sharp knife
They were very big on safety procedures and they also had cut resistant gloves. I did not cut myself or come anywhere close to doing so. I did however cut myself last night on a piece of dried chicken marinade baked onto a baking rack, so I think it’s fair to say that washing the dishes is an inherently more dangerous endeavour than spoon carving.
Lost Trades Fair? Nectarine sounds beautiful.
It’s the ‘Rare Arts and Lost Trades’ centre at Ballarat. It’s next to Sovereign Hill, in what used to be the gold museum.
