Decent sourdough loaf today. 48 hour ferment. Just TRYING hard not to cut into it until it cools. I will probably fail.

OOOOH! the kitten lady just texted. I guess the first people in line didn't adopt him. She asked if I still want to meet him. YES!!!!
Just applied for yet another kitten. This time I texted within the first 15 min it was posted. If you ALL cross your fingers right now, maybe that will help. 😸

Make a spreadsheet. List cooking times (and resting for protein), device (oven, crock pot, stove top, smoker, grill, etc) and temperatures. Work backwards from when dinner is ready. Project manage this fucker.
most people just aren’t going to magically know how to juggle all those dishes just because it’s a holiday. there’s no shame in doing a couple of things really well

Apparently we were SECOND to text so we will only have a chance if the people seeing him today don't want him. #Unlikely.

Oh for fuck's sake. Please tell me this is NOT going to be a real storyline. #Leonard #Jill. #TheArchers

Oh fuck off Ruth. #TheArchers

I'm still not 100% convinced Amber's hesitancy is about her parents. #TheArchers
November 23, 2025 at 7:08 PM
I don't think Amber wants her back washed. #TheArchers

Ruth is STILL being nosey. Quite annoying. #TheArchers

Nice. 👏

And so - we ended up going with a heat pump system because after the rebate, it's only $1900 more than the new furnace and who knows when our 20 year old AC is gonna go. (There goes a big chunk of my new car savings account though).

Reconciliation strengthens BC’s economy and our communities.

We reject racist, anti-indigenous rhetoric — and we’ll continue working in true partnership with First Nations to deliver jobs, certainty and prosperity for all British Columbians.

And.... the furnace motor just shut down. Looks like no heat until Monday now. Luckily we have a gas fireplace and a couple of electric heaters we can pull out for a few days.

So my furnace was making noises this morning and luckily (or not), we were able to get a technician in this afternoon. Now we have to decide whether we should spend ~$1500 for a new motor on a 20+ year old furnace, or buy a new furnace for $6000+. Not a fun decision.
