You may already know this, but....
You know how MS Teams now combines the Chat and the Channels into one place (unless you turn it off)?
Combine that default behaviour with the "Unread" filter. So simple, yet a complete game changer - at least for me.

It's not that my memory gets worse as I grow older - it's that my brain gets better at filtering what it wants to remember.
That's my explanation and I am sticking to it.

Say what you will about Microsoft's AI push - but using #Copilot to build a PowerPoint presentation from a Word document is a huge timesaver.

Danish Æbleskiver.
Kind of pancake balls and a big Christmas tradition.
Merry Christmas 🎄 Let the peace settle down, at least for a few days.

I have just re-certified as an Azure Developer Associate for another year. Phew!

It's not the biggest exam in the world, but it's quite broad so always a bit stressful :)

Last weekend was our annual "Another NewOrbit Gathering" (or ANOG).
I do enjoy these very much; we just get to hang out and chill and no-one is forced to be more social than they want to be. Nice for us #neurodiverse people 😄

Just found the perfect description of myself in a book. This is why meetings exhaust me.

The last few of this year's jalapenos have been harvested. For this batch, I am trying a cold brine of raw 75% Apple Cider Vinegar, 25% water and a bit of salt and sugar. Let's see how it turns out... 🍽️

Homegrown, fermented chili sauce 🍽️. Label courtesy of my daughter.
This is very much an annual labour of love, from sowing the seeds in January through to harvesting and fermenting in September. But it'll keep me warm this winter 😁

My #AuDHD son has struggled to allow us to change his toothbrush.
We then bought 10 of the same kind but all diff colours.
He carefully ordered them by which he likes best & will start at the bottom. That way, each time he has to change, it will be to one he likes better ❤️
