Boost Juice defined my adolescence. It’s where we went to hang out after school. Haven’t had it in maybe 20 years. But they have it in Malaysia 😍

We have been in Penang for a couple days. Did a cooking class and made Malaysian korma, roti canai and tomato rice. Then went to a Nyonya restaurant for dinner which I believe is a combo of Malay and Chinese cuisine (detail/names of dishes in alt text)🤌🏻🤌🏻

We booked our arrival airport transfer through Viator and it came with a tour to Batu Caves, a batik workshop, and Royal Selangor (this was the best - going to go back to make our own pewter souvenir at the end of the trip!)

Also visited Tangalooma Island Resort for the first time and it was incredible. For £80 ea we got return day ferry; $25 lunch voucher, drink voucher for the journey, 60min quad bike tour (pls enjoy that ridiculous photo) and access to resort pools/beach. While swimming, dolphins swam with us 😭😭

We got ourselves a Ninja creami in Jan for our 4th wedding anniversary (theme - appliances). The two I’ve made this week are cherry ripe frozen yoghurt (onken cherry yoghurt + dark choc chips and desiccated coconut mix in) and grape sorbet (grapes and sprite) 🤌🏻🤌🏻

Book 14 (Every Man - why violence against women is a men’s issue and how you can make a difference; Dr Jackson Katz) also finished today (upside of a 5 hour delay). An absolute must read. V short at 200 pages - but very very good.

While I spent most of today in an airport (thanks ever so much 5 hour delay), I still managed to cover the 2mile distance for day 1/31. Had planned to do a dedicated walk, but after getting home at 9pm it was not to be.

Not done a book update for a while but just finished book 13 of the year (Babel, @rfkuang.bsky.social) and I absolutely loved it. Highly recommend, esp if you’re interested in history, language and empire. Feels like a book for our times.

Second go on the kindle case for my pal - comfortably fits the template I made for her size of kindle, so hopefully means I’ve figured out the excess fabric measurements I need now when cutting the pattern!

First kindle pouch done (need to find a hammer before I can add the push press)…however I am concerned it will be slightly too small! Going to make her a second larger one and send both. Once she lets me know which one is the better size I’ll be on to one for @mrlockyer.bsky.social!

Also, would you like the cover to have the little fold over flap like the left, or just an opening with push press close like the right?

Last one! If you don’t like any of these I’ll see what else I can find. If you can measure the bible for me as well, and let me know if you want the push press on the long or short edge, that would be great 😊
