  Meetup last night was good, and so I will be going to another one. Most people I spoke to were really nice and welcoming! I don’t think I’ll make any friends out of it, but it was nice to play fun games with friendly people :)

    Will be much missed. One of the world’s greatest people imo.

      I agree.

    I received a Jane Goodall diorama as a Lego Gift-With-Purchase.

    I recently donated it (including the Jane Goodall minifig) to a Primary School Science teacher for her classroom.

    I hope none of the little perishers steal the minifig!

  Okkk scored a “wellbeing day” tomorrow (not sick or annual, six per year), so long weekend starts now. Extra bonus it’s on my late shift week! Back to normal next week after a good rest. Now beer! 🍻🍻🍻

    I’m glad it’s not just my family. Whenever I said to friends spag bog, they would be like do you mean spag bol?

  Alrighty. 9am interview with a lady in the US then a 2nd one later in the afternoon.

  Wrote my first new song tonight in about 6 months and practiced my new open mic songs as well.

  Goodnight all ❤️

  Be honest, how many of your dinner foods are just an excuse for melted cheese?

  source

  • tone212_@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Tonight’s meal calls for a generous helping of melted cheese, sometimes I construct what I eat around it including cheese.

    source
  • SaneMartigan@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    My brecky egg n cheese sanga sure is. I put the cheese on the egg in the pan.

    source
  • CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I definitely think what vegetables can I melt cheese on to get my fix so I’m gonna say atleast a 1/4. I’m more of a butter whore though.

    source
  • melbaboutown@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    If it were possible for me, it would be all of them. But instead of ‘excuse’ I would say ‘celebration’.

    I would have an air fryer and a fondue pot

    source
  • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    none 😔

    I used love to lasagna and pizza and fondue and cheesy nachos and cheesy paninis

  Ah back at FILs for the next couple of days, and then back to Melbourne Sunday night.

  Niece was very unhappy we were leaving her place, but we’ll see them again before we go home.

  Looking forward to picking Mickey up on Monday morning. Then I have an interview at 10-10:30am, and then my job provider appointment at 11:30am. I’m going to be wrecked, but happy 💜

    Got a recipe?

    I’ve seen a few recipes where they use white chocolate with pink food dye. I hate white chocolate, and also pink is not entirely anatomically correct.

    source

    • Catfish@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I used a pink pre-dyed from Spotlight and added all the off chips from the Lego I did last week to blur but not swirl. So it’s a dyed white base with dark added. Hope that make sense!

  Anyone got advice for dealing with oxalis at the base of young lily pily hedge? People have suggested using a paint brush with poison to just contact the oxalis and other plants should be fine?

  PSA. Aldi’s Buffalo bites (found in the freezer next to the nuggets) are very tasty. Pair them with a G&T and you now have a gourmet meal. Get on it. 5/5 yum yums.

• LowExperience2368@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Our dog is a bit fussy with food and toys. He will only play with some of his toys if a relative’s dog is, where he tries to take them off her and run away.

  We give our dog his worming tablets once a month. Last month, he ate the tablet without it being shrouded in another food. Today, he was more reluctant to do that, but was told, “Relative’s dog name is coming to eat your treat,” and he gobbled it up.

  That phrase has been working for his dry food, and the treats to help his dental hygiene too :)

  I’m listening to Spare, the book by Harry whatsisname

  he sounds like someone who has joined a cult, who has been told their family is awful and don’t love him, who has had his past rewritten to make it nothing but bad up til the moment he met his saviour and he has learned helplessness.

  he was also a bit of dick growing up

  it’s a good warning, don’t marry narcissists like meghan

  i would really like to know how he thought about himself and his life before he met her

  My arms are a bit sore today after all the lugging around of mulch I’ve been doing. I have managed to get all the tape off the rest of the cardboard boxes so I’m ready to put the next lot of mulch down as soon as I have aquired it. I’ve also put together the mini-greenhouse I’ll be using to start some seedlings in. I put a heavy container of water on the bottom shelf and it hasn’t blown away yet, so I think that’s a good sign.

  I got a small grocery order delivered this morning, I think there were more items substituted than not, but fortunately they are all good substitutions. Now that I have more eggs I’m going to do a batch of breakfast muffins - I even bought some egg rings so I can keep the eggs the right size/shape.
