Didn’t quite nail the batter / or oil temp probably.
Crispy though!
Kitchen is in a bit of a state now.

Looks very tasty to me!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
would definitely eat that up
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Mini potato cakes with hummus, caramalised onion and garlic salt.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
That sounds delicious!
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Hurry up dinner time.
I’ve got calamari to beer batter and arteries to clog.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I think we may have discussed this before but what is the story behind your username?
Mine was from the other place.
I really want to know what a Seagoon is.

😍😍
I think Gibson and the other DT cats are the reason why I’m considering getting a cat when I move
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Work related. At the time I set up this account I was peeling around 80kg of potatoes per day.

Skateboarding as a kid down multi level car parks and steep roads. Most fun was sitting on our arses and racing that way.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Mr Woof’s and Miss Meow’s real names. Which means when anyone here uses my username I have a brief moment of confusion before I realise they are actually referring to me 🤣
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Long ago on a different Platform a group of very silly young men were whinging about catfishing. A whole bunch of us changed our display names to Catfish and flooded the daily feed with silly fish related posts. I found it amusing and kept it.

It’s part of a lyric from a song called “All There Is” by my favourite band, Bad Religion.
The lyrics question the human condition in a pessimistic way. Lyrics about the futility of existence, despair, and the pain of living in a world with little substance coupled with high tempo drumming, blistering guitars and three part harmonies. Typical Bad Religion fare…
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
It came about because one day sitting around the dinner table my daughter said something about her dad being the boss of the house and I said “No I’m the boss. I’m the CEO of this house and your dad is 2IC” and he looked at her and said “It’s true. She is the boss”. And the name stuck.

I had messed up baking a cake earlier in the day, that I was supposed to take as a dessert to a gathering. I had no ideas for a user name so that’ll do.
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Just a play on words. I was dumblederp but fuck JK Rowling.

SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
A friend a very long time ago took my nickname, morphed it and morphed it again until it became Spin, which caught on in my friend group for quite a few years and became my favourite nick name. It’s generally taken up on every platform, so I expanded to what it is.
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Mine is very boring. I’m a witch and I live in Thornbury. All my social media usernames are variations on this theme. Would have been worse if I lived in Ipswich. One day I shall re-invent myself, but at present I see no particular need to do so.
calhoon2005@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
What if there were two witches in Ipswich? People would ask, but which Ipswich witch?
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Stupid pun on man about town/toast of the town
Didn’t expect it to stick
_miss_cellophane_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Gender swap of Mister Cellophane, a song from the movie adaption of the musical, Chicago.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I notice you without you having to cluck like a hen!

Reddit generated and I’ve stuck with it.

Lady Seagoon is a character in the Goon Show. This one is another parody of a Sherlock Holmes movie
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I’m up, and have tidied my flat
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Threw yoghurt all over the kitchen this morning, felt like a sign to go back to bed. Unfortunately I had to collect a colleague on the way to work, called him to let him know I’d be late with a big ol’ glob of yoghurt on my foot.

Some of these winter Olympic sports are so dangerous - flipping and spinning in the air, riding rails with ski’s, the athletes have no fear. It looks so cool but wow one wrong move and ouch.
StudChud@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I have seared into my memory of the skier who got caught on the fence,
nsfw
split his groin open, and bled out on the snow
It was grotesque, it’s so fucking dangerous.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I wonder how they even get into such sports.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Had a high pain and anxiety day and ended up napping It just wasn’t a good one. Gonna load up on ibuprofen and rest some more.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I think I’m a lot like you, I don’t work 9-5 at a job , I work at home 7 days a week, that means I don’t get sick days
I have things to do, like look after cats and household chores, so when I get sick I feel guilty and like a failure if I have to rest or take time off
but everyone gets a few weeks off a year for sick days, no guilt,
and you shouldn’t feel bad about it either, it’s not a failing to need a day off
so many hugs, take care and rest up
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Yeah, I think I just had to take this day off and hope for a better one tomorrow.
Melbcat got her medication and had food and water which is the most important thing
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
it’s chaos here with the Seagoon’s setting up house, it’s not just moving, they came here from overseas with just suitcases and they have to buy so much, we’re all helping out as much as we can
so I think I’ll wait until next week to get this house here in order and I will not worry about it 👍Just doing the necessary like looking after cats
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
A $32 t-shirt in 2011 is now $52, does that seem reasonable? I don’t think I’ve got $50 t-shirts in the budget.
Taleya@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Last night was bad. Today is gonna be worse.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
off to help Miss Seeagoon with moving
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
It must be exciting to have the young seagoons so close to you now. 🤗
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
It’s nice after so many years 🙂
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Good sleep last night despite a bit of a weird dream! Yay to REM rebound and better sleep :)
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I had a drink last night which meant better sleep but that’s not a lifestyle choice I’m looking to make as a regular thing.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I hope you can get more than that soon. Shit sleep sucks.
tone212_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Same here, I wish I felt like this every day. The positive difference in my mood is crazy. Sadly I get more bad than good sleep these days…
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I don’t want to be one of those people but do you know why you could be experiencing poor sleep?
The mood difference is indeed crazy. Yesterday I balled my eyes out and today I’m fine.
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Where rain?
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
down south 😒
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Not a very convenient location if you ask me
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Big drops in Coburg ATM
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
There was a storm band that passed north of us!!!
And a huge one in the south slowly making it’s way this way.
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Five books at a time is too many, right?
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I’ve got some anxiety about work giving me the flick because I’ve been sick the last few days.
Let’s see what happens.
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Sky pretty.
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Morning
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
That’s enough looking at the news, I’m meant to be taking it easy.
I foresee a night of painsomnia ahead.
Watching cooking shows on youtube (ad free because of browser choice). Right now I’m watching Lovina Zook (an ex-Amish lady) and Life Of Boris (Slav guy) both of who make a lot of simple things from scratch.
WoW keeps filling my hard drive and being unable to finish the constant updates so I’ve temporarily uninstalled it and might look into something else. It’s a shame. I hoped it would interest me enough to justify a cheeky sub from time to time but I’m not really enjoying it.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
good night everyone
sweet dreams 😘
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Filled in for trivia at a Sporting Globe tonight. I feel like that chain just consumes failing Groove Trains and TGI Fridays but seems to have the sticking power to stay around despite being pretty much the same restaurant
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
dinner was pizza with most of the cheese scraped off, it was ok
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
tired, 5 hours sleep, have stuff to do, will have nap this afternoon
SituationCake@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I’ll join the dinner share. My dinner tonight was pasta alla Norma, with some red capsicum added too. I like to put a generous amount of Parmesan on top of mine. Tasty.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
i fell asleep
