    I’m gonna be cooking a chooko in the airfryer using native herbs and spices. Please pray for it to be juicy and tender.

      Every piece of chicken I have done in the air fryer has turned out great. I think the high convection makes the cooking more even and avoids some of the over cooked dried out spots that can occur in a normal oven.

    Happened a few years back but, just now reading about a school lunch chef in Nebraska fired for adding kangaroo meat to the chilli.

      What was the complaint? People don’t want to unknowingly eat roo? I doubt whatever it replaced was legally classifiable as meat anyway.

        Yeah the roo was too “exotic” for the school lunch program and therefore unsuitable.

        Basically just ignorance about the product. Which is ironic for a learning institution.

    So it was just cold enough for a fire and I had a lot of old notebooks and course notes to burn.
    The cats are very happy.

        I know what you meant, but ‘squiting’ sounds like something you do when you’re lactose intolerant and… indulged. 😂

    I didn’t do the figure drawing exercises. Just started something with my approximation of it.

    I’d like to give thanks to all those workmen out there who don’t remove all their signs when they finish work. My cherry tomatoes are being supported on stakes supplied by Yarra Valley Water, my raspberries have a trellis made from a sign from an unknown road contractor, and the same sign provided corflute panels which are protecting the fence from built up garden beds.

    I ordered a charger on eBay and the description says they send through Auspost, but then the tracking number didn’t work so I asked and they told me it’s coming through “PF logistics/Fastway”. I thought that, a. Fastway was Aramex now, and b PF logistics was a different company. But whatever the case, may God have mercy on my charger

      PF logistics was the company that my very slow package of ribbon came through. It got here in the end, but well past the time-frame of when it was supposed to.

        I’m pretty sure I’ve had something come through them before, but truthfully I don’t understand how any of those private courier companies are in any way better than just sending through normal Auspost. I feel like I’ve heard way more bad things about just about every other Fourier service than Auspost

        I think the only time I’ve preferred a non Auspost delivery is when I get to choose a day and time for delivery. I don’t know who they use, but officeworks do that and I quite like that I can choose an exact date and time, and I know it will be here on that day
