I feel kind of dumb for staying up until 3 to finish a negroni I made where I overestimated the quantities. At least it has been a good day to stay home and do nothing

Bloody hell that temp drop was fast. Must have dropped ten degrees in half an hour or less.
we've had the rain, a small shower and now it's past
The rain radar is showing a gigantic front headed straight for us, probably around 7-9pm I'd guess. Don't get too comfy yet!
The leaves of my zucchini have tiny bugs on them and the interbutts tells me itโs whiteflies.
Guess Iโm about to be mixing a soapy water solution and painting paper strips yellow to make sticky traps with Vaseline and dish soap.
Edit: ok apparently soapy water is harmful to plants
SRL would be done in 2084. I will probably be dead by then.
Honestly me too. But, don't forget the saying "Society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in"
(And being old isn't a prerequisite)
To make up for not feeling hungry this morning I now have a horrific craving for greasy sausages. I wonder if the Coles nearby has the brand of vegan snags I like. But after this morning's jaunt and then the boiling hot laundromat journey I'm not going out again. Ikea and the lot can be left to tomorrow.
...although, despite my recent extravagance^, I think I'll go for that pizza dinner. They do a mock beef Mexican, i have to try it.
Gonna have to work extra hard over the next few weeks to make up for some of this.
^ (and also eyeing off a $750 phone to buy on sale to replace my device bricked by the 3g shut down)
I used to love these but my local stupormarkets don't stock them anymore ๐ They had a black bean and beetroot flavour I liked too.
I loved those, and the Eaty brand - both disappeared :( then vEEF brought in some nice ones but they then proceeded to be constantly sold out at the Woolies near my old place

Have made a gingerbread dough and it's chilling in the fridge. Miniest made me do it ๐ซก I'm sure she likes to eat the dough as much as the finished gingerbread, it smells like Christmas. I just realised I don't have a gingerbread emoji, so ๐ซ๐
First batch is out!
Home made gingerbread is the best!
It really is, and the smell of it cooking is unlike anything else!
Anyone around Fitzroy + surrounds know who stocks Honest Eggs?
Wolfhound on Brunswick Rd I think has them? But idk if there still there.
Edit: Lol you're looking for a shop not a meal nvm ๐
