Faith No More - A Small Victory

[msbarrows]

Aug 2 - another annoyingly hot day. Ran the AC and crocheted in the living room for a while to get out of the heat upstairs. Made toad-in-the-hole and some steamed veg for supper.

Aug 3 - my birthday! Ran the AC while I baked myself a cake, so i wouldn't also bake. We had both apricot jam and chocolate on hand, so I decided to go with making something vaguely inspired by sachertorte:

Three thin 6" wide layers of dark chocolate brownie, moistened with some orange juice since the layers dried out a bit too much in cooking (I should have checked them earlier than I did; their small size meant they cooked very quickly), then stacked with apricot jam between the layers and drizzled with semi-sweet chocolate ganache. Very delicious.

Have ordered myself several small presents over the last couple of weeks, only a few of which have arrived so far; a yarn swift and winder, some fancy hand-dyed yarn. I'll likely be posting about the larger purchases once they show up.

Was thinking of making a batch of pizzas for my birthday, but by the time the cake was baking my get up and go was going, so I decided to make those tomorrow or the next day instead, and did a nice simple chili from the freezer with rice, and have left the dishes for tomorrow. Except for most of the things from cake-making, which I already cleaned up.

Mistigram: you might think you get a break because it's the weekend, but AdeptApril is here to remind you in #ANSIart that there are no days off from cleanliness, so have a happy Clean Your Floors day! (If you really only clean them once a year, this probably is a big deal.)

I have discovered today in a store we went to that there is such a thing as hello kitty ramen noodles

I also saw hatsune miku drinks and cat headphones as well as eevee/pikachu soda

LILIENNE, THE NET PICKER - "Isn't it strange," she breaks the silence abruptly, "For this all-powerful thing, the sun... to be so generous towards us? You know, the best time to go out fishing is usually toward sunset, when the water is warmer..."

The @palestaticexchange is back and I couldn't pass up participating in it again. So here is my art of the Kim Kitsuragi for @siliconesausage :]

Van Halen - Runnin' With The Devil

[msbarrows]

Aug 1 - Got part of my monthly backups done, the ones for the external drives that are always at my computer. Still need to dig the other drives out of my go bag and update them too.

Cooked mild Italian sausages and a packaged rotini & veggies mix for supper.

Aug 2 - Dental appointment today, dentist replaced a disintegrating filling (it was 30-ish years old, one of the old mercury amalgam ones), and also slightly reworked a tooth on my upper left to try and eliminate a food trap spot.

Prepped some pork ribs to cook tomorrow; steamed them over lemon water in the pressure cooker, let them sit in it while pressure dropped, and once they were cooled threw them in a large ziplock bag with a mix of Diana sauce, salt, pepper, ground cumin, and minced garlic, thinned with a little apple cider vinegar.

Brother was out this evening, so I made myself a late supper of tuna fish salad on toast (once the numbing agent finally wore off).

Aug 3 - Happy birthday to me!

Baked and frosted a PB King cake (from B. Dylan Hollis' Baking Yesteryear cookbook). Broiled the ribs long enough to heat them through and give them a bit of a sear - would have had brother BBQ them, but thunderstorms rolling through said no. Had them with sour cream & fried onion mashed potatoes, and green peas.
