I thought it was a bit hot too, but Mr Woof has been out the back sunbaking. He's never been hugely outdoorsy but I think he's enjoying having a decent yard, he has started to spend a lot more time outside.
Today's brunch
Something a bit different today - Saltbush & mushroom stir-fry, with eggs, fresh salsa and chipolatas.
The saltbush is growing really strongly and trying to take over the garden so I'm trying it in a few different things. It doesn't have much taste beyond salty. Bits chopped up through a salad has worked well, cooked it is a lot like spinach but doesn't cook down as much so I ended up with a much higher volume than I expected.
I'll have a fruit salad with yoghurt, please. I'd also like to ensure it's completely spice and bumhole free, I know there are some weird food trends going around at the moment. I blame TikTok.
That sounds like an interesting variation. Sort of a savoury muffin pikelet?
Lawn is mown. Clothes washing is on. Dishwashing was delayed as I forgot to turn it on last night so had to run it this morning, then I forgot that had happened and added more dirty things, so now the dishwasher is on again.
PSA for anyone doing meal planning today: Pancake Tuesday is this week, giving you the opportunity to indulge in as many pancakes as you like without anyone questioning your meal choices.
For anyone wanting the ultimate pancake challenge I have managed pancakes for all three meals one year. Sweet pancakes for breakfast, Japanese vegetable pancakes (okinomiaki) for lunch and filled savoury crepes for dinner.
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 ๐คฃ
don't you think?
Maybe I should, I really just want a spoon to scoop my coffee (I take my own to actually eat with).
If only there was some sort of alchemy that could be performed to convert them.
With the rate cutlery disapears around here that could still be expensive. And the increased demand would probably wipe out the op-shop supply and lead to higher prices. Unless they take trade-ins, we have something like 100 knives and only one solitary spoon.

I was just looking at my passport and saw it mentioned there were things only visible under a uv light and realised I have a blacklight torch so had a look. There is a huge amount of invisible detail in there! It's a bit tricky to photograph while holding a torch but I've managed a rough before & after of one of the pages. If you have a passport and uv light I highly recommend you have a look!
