And apparently reached the stage in life where I cook lots of things in the crockpot.

I don't know what precisely happened; it seems to be the next step from buying the exact same sweater in five different colours. (Ngl, I have five of one sweater in only 3 colours, and I deeply regret getting 2x cream.)

Tonight is a little bit of an experiment with mustard chicken. I guess I'm going to find out whether this is a terrible idea or not.

I'm still searing the shit out of it before I put it in the crockpot though, so hopefully that will yield good results.

I've had this crockpot for well over 25 years now. I think I used it about a dozen times up until this year. Now I'm using it twice a week, at least.

Nothing sucks harder than when you wake up with a craving for something you absolutely are not going to get to eat today.

Yesterday I picked something off the menu in a tiny restaurant that was one of the few things open on Colonizer Day. And it turned out to be one of the tastiest breakfasts I've had.

Shanghai street food, I will eat you again soon.

I have realized that 60 year-old me is on track to be much closer to 13 year-old me than 30 year-old me.

Been an absolutely hectic couple of days. Just picked up the book for Francesca Albanese, and I am rearranging my day tomorrow in order to get it to her.

Lots of #ProtestLaw stuff in the foreground and background.

And now, I am to take the bus ride home to leisurely enjoy the new #SP411STAR drop, and play "How Many Times Do I Appear In the Screenshots."

I really need one of those "things people think I'm doing versus things I'm actually doing" memes.

What I'm actually doing:

Yo people!
Do not hug others when you have been pepper-sprayed.

Also:
Wash it out of your hair by bending over a sink or tub.

DO NOT sit in the tub.

DO NOT stand in a shower and let it wash down you.

Trust me on these things.

(This is going to take a while since I'm photographing it as I do it.)

โžก๏ธ Step 2. Rinse them in plain water.

โžก๏ธ Step 3. Cut the woody part out (the pedicel, the part where it joins the to the vine) and any spots.

โžก๏ธ Step 4. Place on a (non-stick ideally) roasting tray.

I put whole tomatoes on one tray for roasting and partial tomatoes on a separate tray for pizza sauce.

Yes! We are going to roast the tomatoes. Not only do roasted tomatoes taste better than plain blanched tomatoes, they slip nicely out of their skins over the jar and you don't have to do the whole Xing thing and peel them.

Good to know you don't actually lose the urge to make animal noises out the car window.

Even if you choose not to do it.

Today's awkward thing I said in response to someone making an inane comment at me when I have had insufficient sleep:

Maybe you should arrange buy-in for your ethnic cleansing campaign BEFORE you start the ethnic cleansing campaign next time.

Want to guess what the inane question was?

I am totally going to hijack the #NoFilters hashtag and make it about what happens when my brain filters are not working ;-)
