This is your semi-regular PSA that I post a LOT of food pics (it's really all I've got going for me), and they are all tagged #VeeMakes or in the case of my completed challenge #Vees100Bakes. Please feel free to mute both and/or me if you would rather not see them.

What, it's a well established fact that pretty is not my forte

Is there much of a market for "Here's a bunch of recipes I found online and made uglier"?

For all of us with babies we didn't get to meet and those taken from us far too soon. Love and hugs to all who need them x

A lit cream coloured candle in an hourglass shaped jar.
It's a vanilla bean scented woodwick candle for any interested parties.

This is your basic, bog standard vanilla buttercream. It works really well with the syrupy oaty biscuit, but it needs to be a bit firmer than normal to hold it all together.

Made a Giant Thing

(Regular sized Thing for scale)
A ginormous (made in a 9-inch tin)  golden crunch cream biscuit next to a regular sized one.
The execution is terrible, but the taste is off the charts good.

That was my doing, I recycled a complaint because I'm too lazy to make a new one

How are my glasses constantly so filthy?? I put them on when I wake up, I leave them alone until I go to bed, they should not get this dirty!

It was so good! Fairly low effort too, which is always nice

I might have felt like a proper wrong 'un for opening a bottle of cider at 8.15 this morning but the slow cooker pork and cider stew (with sage dumplings, obviously) that I made with it was absolutely fucking banging

That looks incredible!!

If it makes you feel any better, there's a stain on my kitchen ceiling from a soy sauce based marinade that I whisked a bit too enthusiastically

Had a whim, made a thing
A very pretty piped meringue on a white side plate. It is half pale pink raspberry flavoured and half white vanilla. Both halves are delicious.

I found a dino-shaped nuggie in my bag of regular chicken nuggies, and I feel like life isn't going to get any better than this.

The veneration of Books As Objects misses the point entirely. If you're reading a book, turn the corners down, break the spine, spill soup on it. It's your book, go nuts. A pristine, unread book is a tragedy in a way that a beloved, much-read book that looks like the dog's been at it could never be.

Probably not because we're wasting valuable storage space on phone numbers we haven't dialled in 25 years

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.
Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

"Post you from a different era" is middle-aged Bluesky code for "lemme see you when you were hot"
