Links and Lime Sorbet
This yields more than a standard takeaway container - which I think is 750mL. So I'm guessing it would make closer to 800 or 850mL. When I made it, I found it a little too strong - I might use more water next time, or at least less peel! (My housemates thought it was good, though?). This is how I actually made it, based on this recipe. Well, a ' ( Read more... ) -
So I read the comments.
I read the comments on this piece. It was totally worthwhile. One of the OPs responses was this:
"Uh, Lucy? Conscription is gone from the USA. Haven’t had a draft in nearly 40 years. That’s a classic men’s rights activist red herring, undercutting the other points. And the “women and children first” policy is one of chivalry designed by men, not ( Read more... ) -

Wow.
How can my parents be so well meaning, and so incredibly hurtful at the same time.
Here are some wonderful eggs from our hens!!!11!one! ... why didn't you make a cake?
No, you didn't do anything wrong, we just made this decision without talking to you at all, completely overlooking everything you try and do. Sorry if we offended you!

Buffalo Wings
Still in progress.
After visiting Misty's Diner in Prahran a few months ago I've been thinking about trying to make buffalo wings myself.
First attempt involved roasting the wings, which took around an hour on 200.
Sauce was based on a tablespoon of butter, 2 tablespoons each of Worcestershire sauce, and Tobasco sauce. Some vinegar (white, and ( Read more... ) -

I had a marvelous time at the Showgrounds' Farmers Market on Sunday.
I now have potatoes, celery, broccoli, onions, kiwis, and a chicken.
Beef is well priced compared to the Footscray Market - $12 for grass fed, rather than $10 for standard oyster blade.

Holidays
We came back from Palm Cove on Sunday evening. It was well worth it, I felt good up there. The warmth was nice, I like the area as a place to stay, and we did some things I enjoy.
