Greetings. Stormy rain this morning. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Sourdough starter fed and seems happy, but still too young to use. #baking

Happy International Moment of Frustration Scream Day …I thought that was every moment…

The problem with most humans is they treat everything as a competition and have to prove they are “better”, “smarter”, etc. than anyone else. In the process, they mouth-off or act-up and prove they aren’t. #life #human #failure

I’ve just discovered that there are few things worse than a store-bought cold cinnamon bun. #food

Hello. It’s a do-nothing day here. Storm coming through and I woke with the sinus pressure headache announcing it. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

I think I want to try making samosas next weekend. #food

There is something unnatural about chicken drumettes the size of a small watermelon and which tastes nothing like chicken. #bww #food #failure

Happy Kraken Day

Competitions are for those who have a need to prove something. #life

Are you going to dress up for Halloween, or just go naked this year?

Good morning. The world is fragile. Life is fragile. You are fragile. Treat everything as fragile. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

A small loaf of honey oat bread. Yum #baking

Still recovering, so I didn’t write today. But I did start a new sourdough starter, and am baking a honey oat bread (non-sourdough).
