Sunday. 20th. Heated up some lamb I found in the freezer and had it with a potato/onion/feta bake, cauliflower/onion/spring onion bake, and brussels sprouts, bacon and hazelnuts. Yum yum yum. We both may have had seconds.

Then watched DS9 5.6 with tribbles which was a lot of fun. So I watched the original Trouble with Tribbles to see what they did to integrate the footage. Fun stuff! Ooo new season of Black Mirror! Watched 7.1. You just know that a subscription model isn't going to end well.. and adverts.. had to happen.
Monday.
Acts 11:18 When they heard this, they had no further objections and praised God, saying, "So then, even to Gentiles God has granted repentance that leads to life." .. hurray for us Gentiles!
Slept mostly ok although did get woken up by my alarm which is rare. Decom work planning/writing up at work. Leftovers for dinner, DS9 5.7, photo culling, Black Mirror 7.2.
Tuesday. Slept mostly ok but awake quite early. Deleting day!! Deleted heaps of crap which always makes me happy. Creamy cheesy mince with leftover for veggies, then DS9 5.8, photo culling, Black Mirror 7.3.
I have no notes from Wednesday to Friday. It was that kind of week. Distracted by my hair situation, long meetings, waiting on people for things, medical appointments. Didn't get nearly as much done at work as I would have liked. There would have been a few episodes of DS9 in there.
Thursday I made cheesy vegemite scrolls for lunch - haven't had those in ages!

There was a nice sunrise on Friday

We may have also tried McGriddles. For some reason they weren't as good as I remember them from Japan and Hong Kong. Edit: this is likely because I've lost a lot of my sense of taste at the moment. Sigh.

Christmas in July prep started after work Friday (the sweetie did the shopping).

I made the apple sauce, cooked all the sweet potato, and made a peppermint slice.
It's times like this I really miss the little brother...

And there may have been kievs and cauliflower bake for dinner

Saturday.
Acts 16:31 They replied, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved--you and your household." .. interesting that all the household would be saved if one member is.. how would that work?

Finished prepping as much as I could (sliced All The Potato, made gravy, toasted pumpkin seeds, washed fruit, printed out All The Instructions) then headed out to the club. When we go there the shed was full of people which was super stressful and annoying. Usually it's pretty much empty during the day. Turned on the oven then went through everything with Stu. Got the pork into the oven then really left the sweetie and a small team of helpers to do all the putting and taking of stuff in ovens.

I had mulled wine by the fire.

Apparently everything went fairly well. Except the crackling. I really should try pouring boiling water over to begin with...





I also made up the pavlovas and took them up

Sunday. Didn't sleep very well. Not too much to clean up, and not a vast amount of leftovers. Came home. Got clippered. Fiona came over for a while in afternoon which was nice.

You seem to have done a great job with the Christmas in July catering. Hope everyone appreciated your efforts.
