I did it! It took me a while but by god I did it!
Homemade Monte Carlos. All thanks to you guys in the thread yesterday spurring on my dissatisfaction of bought biscuits. Thanks guys! 🫡
There is a homemade monte carlo shaped hole in my life. Please send help (and monte carlos).
ooh nicely done!
They look WAY better than the store bought ones!
They look amazing!!!
Impressed. No gaps!
Spectacular!
they look really delicious 10/10 would nom right up
That’s not how that works dummy
Cat says it does.
Before you know it you’ll be reverse mortgaging for a second floor extension and then cat will be asking for help to get down.
That is how it works when you’re a cat
Gratitude thread!
I’m grateful that I cooked my dinner for tonight last night.
I’m grateful for you all listening and being such supportive and kind people! I’m grateful also for a full belly, a warm bed and a roof over my head for my kids and I after reading yet another article about homeless people sleeping rough on wet, mouldy bedding in the cold and rain.
I’m grateful to wake up to cat pix on here! Makes my day!
I’m grateful for this space
I’m grateful that I received some good financial news this morning which will make life a bit easier soon
I’m grateful for fluffy butt and her antics
Grateful for my efficient reverse cycle heater. Grateful for knowing how to cook with minimal ingredients. Grateful for my colleagues who believe in me and want me to do well and make me feel a little more alive… and extra grateful to my boss for letting me take tomorrow off in lieu to get shit done. I feel a million times better knowing that I don’t need to be at work tomorrow.
I am grateful Bill and Ted are so cute and fun to have around.
I’m grateful that my bout of covid hasn’t been too bad, and I should be able to be out ‘n about soon
I’m grateful for an upcoming trip with a friend. Some yummy chocolate. And I’m lovely and warm in my new oodie, even if I am a good four years behind everyone else in getting one.
Who else thinks Sheila could sell her monte carlos down at Vic market? They look that good
I an over 50km away, and hate going into the city. But for them, I would.
High praise indeed! Thankyou!
That’s so kind of you to say, thankyou!
@Seagoon_ Loud crashing sound in the bathroom, then cats come sprinting out.
Do I even want to look?
Probably ghosts. Definitely not cat mischief. Those cats were probably lucky to get away.
I wish my rental had insulation lol
Off to the gym, then get ready for my interview tomorrow. Whilst in bed, nice and warm.
Forgot to mention: woke up in the middle of the night to some great news. Not job related, but still very much welcome.
No eggs at the supermarket! I keep hearing of the shortage from bird flu but hadn’t encountered empty shelves until today. Better luck during the day maybe?
Aldi was totally out, Coles was low. Also not seeing any lactose free milk or cream for some reason.
So I should probably keep quiet about the three dozen eggs in my fridge?
I have coffee!
Freshly brewed. Profile today is chocolate fudge and raspberry.
Early lunch has been had too so I can relax
Gave in and ordered Colesworty delivery today because I am run down and trying to have a rest day. They managed to …just…not give me 3/4 of the order… I have some pantry items delivered but none of the fresh or refrigerated stuff I actually needed. Delivery says bag 1 of 1 so it’s not a problem with the delivery dude.
I have put in for a refund but 😤
Ugh. That blows. And how’s their app‽ They always ask for feedback and I always say the same thing: Your app is slower than a blind one armed pensioner loading a musket.
The Coles app sucks, and so do the apps of all their other brands. Woolworths is better but someone needs to optimise their queries because search is slow as hell
Oh yeah terrible all round. Lucky I have a good pantry/freezer as backup. Fresh stuff will just have to wait
Please Goonie, can I have some more roast chicken
spoiler
Poor starving boy.
😿
Understandable… succulent and delicious roast chicken is one of my very favourite things.
Small tiles in a bathroom (like subway tiles) might look cute but if you are the one cleaning I’d suggest staying right away from it or else cleaning is going to be a bitch.
Congratulations! to Boyo who has poured half a bottle of pancake mix directly onto the stove top.
Gas, electric or induction? Eeek for a Sunday morning.
Gas. Thankfully hasn’t seemed to get into the vent bits.
Ahhh jesus
Whew! Bullet dodged I guess.
Oh, that’s messy.
Yes….
Nearly better off waiting for it to cook, then peel it off!
pre or post mix

🧽🪣
Wot dis weather?
Warmed up by a lovely soup with crispy bits of pancetta.
Now the question is, do I just do it and buy last min flights for a quick getaway os…
I would say yes, but then again I’m irresponsible lol.
Where do you want to go?
Did the cheeky and booked. Angkor Wat, here I come!
Think I’ll whack on a 007 movie tonight. Been a while.
Which one? I rather like OHMSS.
I’m going with Skyfall tonight
Cool. I like that one too. :)
My favourite.
Feel like singing the blues a bit, so it’s an early night.
Goodnight everyone ❤️
Good night, sweet dreams. 💟
