Ducked out early and picked up some chicken drumsticks. Not pleased that they went up on price amoungst other things.

Now I have to think about how to cook them and if I should combine them into a pasta sauce and eat it with pasta.

In other news the sun is glorious and nice and warm and I’m about to get some toast and make a real coffee

Roast then use the bones to make stock.

Looks like many of us are napping today. After going grocery shopping and eating my delightful meal, I went to nap at around 11am. Got up at 12, but was falling asleep. Back to bed until just now. Guess I am exhausted 🥱

I was very close, but I've deputised the cats to do it for me.🤭

Low carb day today. Which is code for "oops, I forgot to pack the bread".

i have a few regrets putting a heap of the old chilli crop from the freezer in the spring roll mix. It's still cooling I haven't rolled them up yet but when someone tells you "oh they lose heat'.. well I don't believe that anymore. Hawt.

All of a sudden I’m prompted to sign in to this instance every time I open it. ?? Why it be like that?

It is star struck at meeting a real god and wants your autograph?

Quite often it prompts me to do the same, but it seems to remember I'm already logged in after 5 seconds or so

Sorry I know it feels like I've talked about nothing but the same thing all day but I just came back from dinner and I will need a BIG sleep.

Couldn't sleep so I watched Babylon.

I fell asleep happy thereafter.

I have no idea why middle america got offended, it's what they want, it's what they vote for, it's who they are. Exploitation and amorality with no judgement . Reality is not pretty.

The dwarf on a cock pogo stick was inspired.

I'm treating my family to some tipsy karaoke.

My kids are impressed with the lyrical delivery but not so much the execution.

I present to you Dinner tonight.

Pasta with chicken from drumsticks in bolognaise sauce.

Will freeze the drumstick bones and then make stock out of them after I’ve cooked them all.

So…apparently there are four missing people in a Defence chopper crash. Their families have woken up to something fucking horrible.
