I just bought some Duckfeet boots for these flippers, and I can't help but love them. I love the colour and the comfort, and there's so much room for toes.

All of my shoes are either dying or not fitting well, and because adulting and becoming more environmentally conscious, I wanted good quality shoes that will last and can be resoled.

I'm still a bit conscious that they are not shaped like a "regular" shoe and that I'll stand out, but I'm at the age now where I'm saying more "Who cares, and if they do, why do their opinions matter?"

"Marble"y pattern isn't as prominent now after I've conditioned them, but they're still pretty and cute.. 👉👈

Partner decided to go all out on this toasted triple decker sandwich. I really wanted tater tots. We found about half way through that we may experience a little bit of regret, but none were had by the end of it.

Ham, fried egg, smashed avocado, bacon, tomatoes, red onion, lettuce, mayo, mustard on seeded bread.

Poll: Rectangle or triangle? Any particular reason why?

I do triangles because it's easier to bite a corner without making a much of a mess on both table and my face. Also, mum used to only do rectangles, so when I was old enough to start making my own, they were triangles forever.

I went to open the new container of butter at work and saw that someone else got there before me. Who does this! :'( Needless to say, I smoothed it out. I'll get to see what it looks like when I'm back in on Monday.

Made a photo worthy meal yesterday. Last few weeks have been soups and lentil curries, which are very beige of brown on camera.

Oven baked gochujang chicken breast over brown rice; stir fried red capsicum, and homemade kimchi on the side. Solid lunches for the week!

Made gimbap last night. MyFitnessPal said I had too many carbs, but it's one day out of the week. 100% would make again.

Smoked salmon, chicken, egg, cucumber, carrot, a little big of mayo.

I didn't add much salt to any of the ingredients, so I had some homemade sweet soy and regular soy sauce on the side.

Growing up in Canada, I had to contend with learning two different spellings and pronunciations for words like "schedule", "colour", "omelette", "zed" vs "zee", "-ise" vs "-ize", and so on and so forth, so I had to come up with some little tricks to remember how to spell things. Sometimes I'd put on a mental Quebecois or English accent.

Other ones like diarrhea was "Die-err-HEE-uh", and now that I'm in Australia, it's most definitely "Die-err-HOE-uh". 😂

I also recite the ABCs more often than I should. I know a lot of you do, too.

What are some ways that you thought of to help you remember how to spell things? Any language counts.

I just learned how to cross post 😅

Accidentally overproofed because I got caught up making lasagna, but still turned out really well! Next time, I will axe the seeds on top (makes a mess when slicing and the poppy seeds go everywhere), and put them inside the bread instead. And more poppy seeds, and maybe a handful of oats.

Now I just need to move back out in to the country and get some chickens... Who doesn't love fresh bread and fresh eggs? 🍞 🐔 🥚 Toastie? Bacon and egg sanga? Poached egg over avo toast?

Inspired by @FauxPseudo@lemmy.world. Short on time, but had about an hour, so I made garlic knots.

The two ones in the forefront have been garlic buttered with parsley, will do the others as I eat them so I can keep them at room temperature until reheating. Had to force myself to stop eating them.

Plans for a seeded bread soon. It's 6C - 16C in Melbourne, so it's baking season!

I ran out of bread, and got the shits seeing the price of bread in the supermarket and Bakers Delight. So... I made a thing.

With egg and crispy chilli oil/chilli crisp. 😁 Mangled the egg - yolk fell out half way through.

I made hot cross buns tonight.

They have cinnamon and sultanas, nothing fancy. Messed up the lines a bit, but it's just flour and water so they don't add to the taste whatsoever.

As dough balls do, they sometimes proof in to weird shapes you don't expect. 🤷🏻‍♀️ An unevenly heating oven also does not help.

Happy Easter!
