Or now because you know *gestures at everything*

I love a boring looking cake though. They always taste the best.

I did also do an extra job that wasn't even on there. Obviously none of these jobs took very much time or effort but I have just been not doing them.

Please clap for me as I have done 2 more of the jobs from the list that I made myself 2 weeks ago and that makes 5 whole jobs done now 😂😂😂

I'll get there eventually.

You know all the Americans are just gonna assume you're also American.

I only ate about half of mine. I definitely wouldn't get one again.

Really easy too.

Delicious! Will be making it again.

Dinner!

One tray loaded wedges with avocado cream

Tonight's dinner is this one but one tray will have beans and one will have bacon.

I read Gone to See the River Man by Kristopher Triana and The Tourist Attraction by Sarah Morganthaler.

It is in the Bailey Ladies Chat.

My dad, sitting on a chair on his deck, talking on a phone. He is clearly very happy because I'm the best daughter. Not my sisters.

My mum took a photo of my dad when I was on the phone with him.
Look how much he's laughing, that's because I'm hilarious.

We had sausages in bread because it's Feed Yourself Friday and Dylan's not home yet.

Shopping list is done.

Look at me having my shit together. Don't look too closely though. Just look at this one thing.

This is the correct ratio.

He's 67 today.

I was like "I guess I shouldn't tease too much as I'll be 50 in a few years"

A male elephant seal laying in short grass with a beach in the background. Its head is lifted and mouth is wide open as it lets out an aggressive call.

A portrait of a male elephant seal sitting up relaxed. It’s long snout is draped down its face, looking like a muppet

Inside you there are two Elephant Seals 🐘 🦭

Chatted to my dad for an hour.

Teased him because he's going to get the "seniors fish and chips" for dinner 😂😂

Hahahaha. It is what normally happens.

I'm just trying to get out of a dinner loop of just cooking the same things

One of the signs of the apocalypse

I was about to ring my dad for his birthday but it's 12.45 there so I'll wait till it feels like it's after lunch time.

It certainly feels wrong

I have used Appetise to make my meal plan and now I just have to go through and tick off what I already have (I picked recipes that already have most of the ingredients for) and then I'm ready for grocery shopping tomorrow.

Look at me planning meals BEFORE I go to the supermarket 🥇

It's been at least 2 1/2 years since the Great Plastic Baby War began in our house and I still keep finding them.

It's true...

Um excuse me that's just a really beautiful and completely normal shaped Christmas tree. So festive.

I'm trying to not buy more clothing unless I need it - my list for this winter is a pair of trackpants and 2 long sleeved tops (so I can layer).

4 recipes: One tray loaded wedges Karaage cauliflower bowls Chicken souvlaki bowls Spicy tuna sushi bake

Have found some new recipes to try for dinner next week.

Dishes is Dylan's job because I hate it but will do it if I have to or sometimes when they annoy me during the day 😂
