  Running low on toothpaste. I hope the dentist this morning will have restocked their big bowl of samples. Colgate Total please.

      Please to report I was handed a fistful of Sensodyne’s (apparently new) daily toothpaste. 🦷🪥

  Anxiety has been bad today. I’m not even thinking about you know what. It’s just there with the rest of my life and everything is making it worse.

  I forced myself to quickly go out for newspaper to line plant pots but they didn’t have any. Some dodgy characters around but luckily nothing came of it.

  I’ve planted two of the largest zucchini seedlings out but ran out of potting mix and energy because those pots were pretty big. I don’t eat much or exercise enough for physical work like lifting and shoveling… but I kind of had to do something.

  Also they’re growing fast and I don’t think I can keep all of them.

    I like www.theseedcollection.com.au because they have smaller packets.

    source

    • melbaboutown@aussie.zone ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Nice, ty. The packets are larger for the things I’d like but it’s a nice resource

      source
  • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    That’s brutal ugh I’m sorry 💜

    I agree on the seed packs tbh, like a mix, or smaller sized packages would be cool! I haven’t thought about seed libraries though, that would be really cool to look into!

    source

    • melbaboutown@aussie.zone ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      It is absolutely brutal.

      And yeah, I get redundancy but the packs are quite large. There are community gardens but… I don’t like people

      source
  • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    thinning seedlings is a normal part of gardening, it’s not a waste, it’s how we grow with the strongest

    I’m only keeping half of the jalapenos I’m growing

  Why isn’t frozen mirepoix a thing? In convenient sized sachets? We can purchase frozen everything else, why not that? It’s just finely diced carrot, onion and celery. There’s a marketing opportunity here - a sachet of mirepoix and a bag of good chook stock in the same pack - would save so much hassle assembling and chopping etc.

  source

  • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Okay my bad, I read mirepoix as “mirepox” and had a moment of “is that zoonotic?” 😅 Bloody infection control and procedures class has stuck in my head 😂

  Unwinding to some Quincy Jones tracks (so much MJ!) as is the theme across so many PBS programs this week…

  I’m NOT going to think about packing or selling items tonight, I’m just tapped out.

  Got a friend coming over tomorrow to help work out this couch bizzo and provide some distraction from all the packing and culling.

  Wonder what movie or tv series I could blank my brain out with this evening.

  We went to Gami last night and the robot there delivered our food to the table. Of course I spoke to it. Several times.
