The Goddess of Quanitity is smiling upon me today. The soup I made filled exactly the right number of jars to completely fill my canner (17 jars) with just enough left for a small bowl for entree.
It is a chicken & tomato soup, with lots of vegies, like zucchini and capsicum. A lot of the vegies are from my garden, including a few kilos of cooking tomatoes.

A woman we know that has A Lot Going On recently posted she got baptised into the Church of Latter Day Saints. That’s the Mormons for the more common terminology. We knew she was on a bit more of a religious bent, but I thought that would just be liking fake bible verses on Facebook. I don’t even know how she got caught up in it

Ask them about their weird undies!!

I’ll keep an eye on her when we run into each other at the childcare centre and see if she dresses differently

I want to know what kicked it off, or what steps led up to this. She’s Italian so I’d have thought her family would at least be performatively catholic

Due to parenting stuff…went to bed late last night and had to get up early today.
All good. Had a productive day.
Was looking forward to a nap and managed 15 minutes. Nothing woke me up, that’s just how long I slept.
Korean food for dinner.
Had a few drinks and had a few puffs of the devil’s lettuce
Great fucking Saturday

That place has reminded me I made this 6 years ago in the midst of lockdown baking frenzy

A prodigious effort! And I recognise that cat print cat print apron

Gawd that took all day :(
Whoever put that in a few decades ago went so deep the concrete had fused with the clay and then bedrock about a metre down 😶
My back isn’t built for that.
Would’ve taken someone who knew what they were doing probably an hour lol.
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 13 hours ago
Good work. Digging clay sucks.
Catfish@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Or 5 min with a jackhammer?
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 1 day ago
lol probably :)
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 1 day ago
That is a very impressive effort. You’d pay a personal trainer lots of money to make you work that hard, so you’ve saved money on two things.

Good night everyone, sweet dreams 😘

Hii everyone!
I’m thinking of moving to Melbourne this year from Sydney, and I’ve just started doing my research into the different suburbs etc. to try and narrow down on places to live. I’m currently looking at Coburg, Thornbury or Preston.
Any advice? Places to avoid, places to check out? Thankyou ☺️
StudChud@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I live in Brunswick on Syndey Road, have been here for 6 years. Avoid street level residences, aim for an apartment. This will keep you up off the street, as Melbourne (particulaly the inner suburbs) have a meth and homelessness issue. You’ll hear them yodel around at odd hours, and verbally cuss themselves out lol, but staying off street level means it’s just entertainment (dark humour sorry).
Otherwise I love it here. Everything is walking distance, close enough to the CBD without it being a hassle, Sydney road street party is great fun, always something artsy or niche to attend, lots of gigs, trivia nights, foods, etc.
Keshara@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 day ago
Thanks for the advice! Will definitely keep that in mind about street level
Catfish@aussie.zone 1 day ago
From your list I’m guessing you want affordable, decent PT, and close enough to Things to Do? Consider Niddrie. Nobody has ever heard of it
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Avoid the West.
Coburg is great.
Catfish@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Piffle! I’ve been West the entire time I’ve been in Melb. It’s streets and pocket areas not whole suburbs and regions that have issues.
Keshara@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 day ago
Why avoid the west?
And thanks! I’ll continue to look around Coburg. Any opinions on Thornbury?

The heinous bitch next door is attempting to kick out her daughter. TheVoid peed himself in fear of the ruckus. Finger hovering on police button…
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
it’s a difficult one
a woman like that would blame the daughter for having the police come and abuse might intensify when police leave
Catfish@aussie.zone 1 day ago
She’s doing it. There’s a pile of garbage bags and backpacks out the front

awful week, still tired and headachy but am getting bored

Big day today. Did the munnel. Went to Footscray. Went to Watergardens and bought some Skechers.
I’ve tried boba tea about 4 times now and I find it hard to navigate the balls. I know they’re in my mouth, I try to swallow, realise they’re too big so I start chewing and they still won’t go down. It’s such a weird sensation to chew the drink.

I have been listening to the audiobook “Chasing the Scream” by Johann Hari.
😐😐😐 The drug war was started by a government as corrupt as the trumps, the Harding admin took cash from the mafia to make drugs illegal so the mafia could have a new prohibition market. Part of this was striking off many thousands of doctors who were caring for addict patients. They drove pharmaceutical companies into the ground. Prices went from pennies to dollars. Treatment became illegal. Crime soared.
( The Harding admin caused /oversaw the Gilded Age and the Great Crash, just like trumps )
millions and millions of people have suffered or died because of appalling government corruption
i might never have believed it until I saw how corrupt the trumps are

After many days of slothfulness after feeling a bit unwell I am back onto Doing Things.
A new veg box arrived yesterday, so I’m doing a final clearout of some of the older stuff. Primarily finishing off some soup and doing a tray bake of vegies for meals over the next few days at work. Plus I’ll do a few salads, for lunches and/or side dishes for dinners, depending on how much stuff I end up having.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
good t hear you’re doing better 🙂

First parkrun in a while, with a cold, almost died. This song came on with about 1.5km to go …
In the face of evil - magic sword
…finished the run feeling like an 80s movie hero

There’s a metal gig at the bendi probably no one will go to I’d like to check out if the kids and energy line up
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago

We’re looking at cheese toastie and tomato soup. Simple yet pleasing.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
that sounds really delicious, gruyere toasties are my fave 😢
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Time for a coffee and lunch. 🙂
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Broke some new ground with singing tonight. Did a specific warm up for 10 mins and I learned a song I’d been desperately trying to learn for years in 20 mins.
Also, something bad is about to happen to me
