Made three kinds of truffles today! Peanut butter dipped in chocolate, peanut butter with chocolate chips, and sugar cookie, with chocolate chip on deck and who knows the dipping combo by the end.

Started a new batch! Unfiltered Martinelli apple juice as a base, with half a packet of S04 yeast, cup of strong black tea for tannin, and some yeast nutrient. Ended up only using 3L juice to leave headspace for the krausen, as I don’t know what to expect with nutrient.

Ugh I wish I felt more secure in posting photos of my kids online because the photo I took yesterday after we built our first snowman of the year is iconic and I adore it so much but nooo I want to protect their online existence or something
Here’s the cropped snowman instead
ENJOY IT

Both invigorating & nerve wracking, submitting an application for an internal position. To celebrate & also distract from getting my hopes up, my husband, 10, & I did face masks! While we laughed so hard at how drippy they were, I’ll also never get this brand again. But, fun! (no 10 for you tho)

Fair amount of alcohol content in this cider (based off of how it hits; I still don’t have a hydrometer 🙃) but not a lot of body. Racked most of it with some juice to carbonate. I have a new juice ready to go & this time I might try adding tea-based tannins for body like I’ve seen elsewhere online.

Okay so this was pretty good! Mild in overall curry flavor so I’ll pump that up next time.
The OG recipe called for 4.5lbs of minced pork and the whole recipe was to feed /four people/. I made all the meatballs but baked half separately to freeze. Literally cannot imagine 🤯

See you in 10 days, my pretty!
Sticking with the same apple juice base as used in prior brews but changing the yeast. I want to see the impact first before changing everything.
Once bottled, I’m tempted to try a cider using a different fruit. I do have loads of blueberries in the freezer… 🤔

It’s October 25th and here is my last tomato harvest of the year. Absurd. There were still flowers and recently pollinated starts on the vines too.
I hear that tomatoes will continue to ripen, like bananas, so I picked some of the green ones to try it out. TBD!

I was serious about decluttering earlier, and have been tackling small pockets through the week. Today I came across some rugs my grandma made that I’d put in storage because the cats love strings too much. Yes, I absolutely hugged the pile of them and probably looked absurd. I’m okay with that.

Pretty certain that others in my HOA dislike my front garden beds, but I enjoy feeding and watching the birds (as do my cats) and eating the herbs and seeing the flowers in bloom so honestly they can suck it (though fr I do try I’m so sorry this is all false bravado I am actually an anxious mess)

I long for the days when I had enough excess mental load bandwidth to play cozy, task-oriented games like Stardew Valley. Now those kinds of daily, repetitive tasks are basically anathema to me. One day I shall return. But for now, I can at least enjoy the occasional cuppa and reminisce

Finally taking the time to process all the dried oregano bundles I had about the house. Next up is the thyme, though that’ll yield significantly less volume. My house smells amazing right now

I’ve tried a variety of heat sources over my decades of menstruation and, frankly, cats still come up tops
(Her obsession with me may be a giant pain for 24-29 days of the month but she do be coming in clutch when it matters)
((Also I challenge you to find softer fur omg so silky))

Be the change you want to see in the world.
My world is multicultural and richer for it. Here’s one tray of many pork dumplings I made and froze this week. Can practically taste them already!

Because apparently I felt like waking up exactly on time this morning: freshly baked banana muffins ready to go.
