Went into office yesterday…down with some illness today.
People are filthy disease ridden pigs.
Guaranteed it was on my morning train ride.
AMEN
“now arriving at: HACK COUGH WHEEZE SNEEZE” was a common sound on my train this morning.
Good night everyone. Sweet Dreams. 🥱
The little pudding is hungry lately! She was sick a day or two ago but I’m hoping it improves.
There’s these fancy little cat broth sachets I’ve been tempting her with to eat wet food, and she’s always perked up at the treat bag rustling.
We’re cuddling and staying warm.
you know you’re getting old when you truly love waking up stupidly early.
Mornings are nice at this tune of year. I’d like to get up early but have never been able to manage the habit
The stars are still out, the sky is dark blue, the birds are chirping, the air smells delicious, what’s not to love?
The hangover :(
Did my usual thing if falling asleep earlier, getting woken up by a loud banging noise or something and now I’m struggling to call asleep 😭
Is it just me or has Telstra gone to crap lately? Dandenong corridor is normally dicey Caulfield to south Yarra, but this morning around Dandenong to hughesdale has struggled hard. And it’s been like that for a few weeks now.
My legs are owie. I shall cut them off if they continue
🔪💉
My kid is home with a cold. I panicked because if I get sick I can’t enjoy my lamb roast that I planned later in week so I brought it forward to today. Slow cooked lamb with spuds and gravy will be had then you can shoot me down with your mange.
A roast on a Tuesday night??? Next you’ll be telling me you head out for a late night on the town on Monday nights!
Hahaha. Like my mum says “I don’t need a day of the week to tell me when I can have a roast”.
Ur mum is based
I think I’ll bite the bullet and get on the airfryer trend. But I don’t have the kitchen space do I might replace the microwave with an airfryer/microwave/convection oven combo.
The ability to cook frozen stuff without the fuck around of a regular oven is too tempting
You have to keep in mind that the combos don’t work as well as a traditional bucket airfryer. You are better off buying a small airfryer from kmart to try out. Alot of people recommend them.
I’ve never tried one of those convection combos, but I do highly recommend an airfryer with 2 baskets. It does depend on what you’re cooking, but I’ve used air fryers with one big basket, and air fryers with 2 smaller ones, and I definitely prefer the smaller 2 basket ones
If you’re cooking bigger things frequently, then the large one might work out for the best, but the largest things I regularly cook are chicken schnitzels (my butcher does massive heart shaped ones), and chicken Kievs. I prefer to cook those either in the oven or fry them in oil anyway, so it doesn’t bother me
I usually use the air fryer for lunchy type things like chicken tenders, chips, or hash browns. Sometimes sausages. But I can fit about 4 large tenders or 6 sausages per basket, so it works out just fine for me
I’ve gone to a friend’s place that used one of those kmart airfryers to cook some chips. I was thinking about this, and I’d rather trade a bit of functionality for a single device I don’t need to get out of storage and plug in every time I need to use it
I get it. Space in my small kitchen is at a premium. I have a microwave/ convection oven/ grill combo and it works well but it is not the same as a bucket airfryer and don’t believe people who say it is. The convection oven part is just a smaller oven. A bucket airfryer is like a Ferrari.
All airfryers are convection ovens. Not all convection ovens are airfryers even though they maybe marketed as that.
One of the best purchases I’ve made.
The air fryer revolutionised my cooking, I use mine multiple times a week. A worthy investment.
same
We got an oven with an airfryer setting and it’s not very good. Should’ve saved the money and got a regular oven and a separate air-fryer.
To challenge your point, what fuck around with a regular oven? I chuck the chips on a tray with a baking sheet, turn the timer to 20 mins and in an hour I’ve got luke warm cooked chips.
I use mine several times a week. Best use so far is to thaw and crisp up bread rolls, but does chops/sausages pretty good too. I don’t do fried food or chips much. It does a reasonable job of baking small half size cakes too. The microwave is better for thawing out frozen dishes imo, and does a better job of cooking vegetables.
I’ve only got limited bench space, so when I realised I was going to use the airfryer a lot, I invested in a ceramic tile 60cm by 60cm, and put that on top of my 4 burner gas cooktop. Most of the time I only used 1 burner so replaced that with a single burner induction stove. The airfryer and induction stove sit side by side on top of the tile - taking up no more room than that, and leaving a generous lip at the front for spoons and to rest the airfryer basket etc.
The tile can be easily removed if I ever need more than one pot on the stove at one time.
Organising the pantry and playing Tetris to maximise space. My back is not happy with me
I can haz mains electricity 👍 the power was cut by accident by street works
I think I’m either sick, or going to get sick in the next few days. I can feel it. The sore throatening has started, the nose is getting stuffy, and I’m super tired
I used to only get sick once or twice a year, but now it’s feeling like I get sick month or two. Really need to figure out how to make that stop happening, because it’s getting annoying. Especially the lack of energy part
oh no, take care
From within the bowels
The buzz of the bee whirring
I am hungover
Me - I’m not sure what day it is 2024
That’s full tilt. Will be gone in under a week.

Oh… hissing and puffy tails. Another kitty came up to the (locked) screen door and there was a standoff.
It’s always surprising to see as Melbcat is such a placid people oriented cat, a real teddy bear. I guess she’s just protecting herself and her home.
A few neighbourhood cats do seem keen on coming here. Maybe they heard about the good food and are trying to book a stay
