Afternoon buyer has not shown up ☹️

It is very rude, Mr Woof has been waiting for his afternoon walk. She confirmed she was coming just a couple of hours ago!

Ugh, no luck with confirming the couch move so far (and tbqh I'm really tied for time tonight). I'm starting to think it won't happen and I'll have to move it to my friend's place.

Meanwhile I have at least confirmed the movers for Monday morning, that's a big tick. Think I'm just going to take the day off so I can clean up after and shit

Kiwifruit chilli chutney has been bottled. Tastes pretty good. Flavours along the line of a sweet chilli sauce, just a bit chunkier (and greener!)

Left over beef ragu pasta for lunch and I am so excited. Hurry up, 1:30pm.

Also wondering at what point I'll snap and stop making sensible decisions and run away to Europe for a month.

Good start to the day, Marketplace buyer showed up & was very friendly. I have a couple more that will hopefully show up today too - I'll have to convert all my cash to proper digital money soon! πŸ’° πŸ’° πŸ’°

I'm really hoping some more cupboards sell soon, I'd like to be able to use my carport again. If any are remaining after this weekend I think I'll put them up free on the Buy Nothing group.

I ended up with more kiwi fruit this week, so I am going to try a small batch of kiwifruit chilli chutney.

Edit: Chutney is currently cooking. I had a preliminary taste and it is hot.

Clients asking me if I can do their work for cheaper. No! I give you a fair price right up, this isn't a negotiation. Yet I feel the need to say, yes of course I can do it cheaper. Then I come across as a pushover and the next time I do work for them, they'll ask for cheaper again.

For some dumb reason I clicked on a spider IG. Now my IG is full of spider-related content.

Like BIG spiders…

What's everyone's favourite dessert?

If it's cake I'd say chocolate for me or black forest as long as it doesn't have cheese in it.

I also like making a bowl of jelly with fruits in it.

Tiramisu hands downnnnn

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

good vanilla ice cream with raspberry coulis

chocolate mousse

black forest cake with brandied cherries

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

ffs I have been banned for 3 days from one of the fossil reddits ..lol. Some nonce posts a picture of a blue rock he got from Blue Rock Beach and asks if it's a fossil.

It's a blue rock.
