Decided to cut up the lamb and cook the portion I cut off.
So easy in the airfryer and flipped midway.
Was so delicious!
And now there is blood everywhere from Boyo stabbing himself with his new spoon carving chisels.

My online friends are busy... sigh. I do have things to entertain myself with if only I had the motivation. Things are feeling a bit stale.
One thing I don't like about this time of year is the way it's so all or nothing. Dealing with overstimulating crowds or very isolated. Lots of shopping and then everything shut. Lots of spending and then things are tight. Heaps of food and then diets. A frantic rush vs inactivity. I feel like there should be smaller more frequent holidays broken up through the year so everything isn't thrown so out of whack at the end. (I'm not even Christian.) That might force them to be shorter though and make it hard for people to get together.
Having hot tea with my dressing gown over pjs. Trying to decide if rewatching Buffy will hold my interest.
It's Amends type weather, I say go for Buffy!
Now that you mention it it’s much the same. It’s either dead quiet or super busy, there’s no happy medium of feels like and probably why I feel overwhelmed when I’m not in the mood to be trapped inside with an entire family who is loud.
Having grown up overseas I definitely see what you mean about it being all or nothing in places like Australia. I liked how it was where I grew up, none of the public holidays had the same stop-the-country effect so you could easily enjoy them alone or with others.
heavy rain!
How you feeling mate?
Thanks for asking. 🤗 Not so bad at all. Maybe it's a false alarm. I'll take a test tomorrow. Even so, staying home was the right thing, too many at risk people in the fam.
Hmm another coffee or a glass of wine?
both in the same mug
Update. Decided to go coffee using my a big gun blend I have.
Then I’m going to have a red after.
Blend I’m using is called The Unicorn.
