        Oooo yes. I have done that once upon a time (I think it was on the oven rack) and it left a nasty little red angry line.

          Interesting. The sausage flavour of the mcmuff is really hard to replicate, however, several years ago I found a butcher that offered “breakfast sausage” (whatever that means.) It tasted exactly like the McDonald stuff.

          Have not been able to locate any since. It’s a very specific flavour that eludes me to this day.

          Your version looks great though and making me hungry.

    I hung up my new solar lamp outside. Is pretty.

    Hopefully it holds up to the weather OK.

      Little dog likes to line them up on both sides of the car.

    Just a friendly reminder that cooking gyoza at 2:30am is natural, healthy and perfectly normal.

    Also, racism and anti-Semitism of some fam members is so subtly expressed. Most know it’s wrong, that’s why they state it in passive aggressive ways. 🤬 The stupid ones just repeat shit they hear on Fox. Then there are the ones with “inside” knowledge. 🙄

    I’m so sick of the petty hate.

      I hated experiencing that when my ex-stepdad used to live with us. It always gives me such uncomfortable feelings and so jarring too.

      Glad he’s not here any more, though not saying that I myself am perfect, but doing my best to unlearn a lot of it that’s just imbued in our culture. So I sympathise with you a lot.

      My family is full of them. Partners family is full of them. They know my thoughts but they have safety in numbers at family gatherings so don’t hold back. Not looking forward to Christmas and hearing everyone’s opinions on the voice. Or Gaza. Puts me in a shit mood for the holidays every single time.

        I suspect the racists/idiots etc can detect my utter dislike and contempt for their views. And yet I listen to them carefully and try to understand what they are saying and why. Something they never seem to reciprocate.

        in a way I do not enjoy these discussions at all.

    I mixed sour cream and Philly cream cheese into my scrambled eggs mix. They’re fluffy and delicious!

      Yes. Philly is a good ingredient - the Sopranos got that bit right. For eggs, if you like em super fluffy, try mixing the beaten egg with some of the ‘water’ from around a can of corn kernels instead of milk/cream/philly - makes scramblies and omelettes super super fluffy.
