got into the popular spin instructor’s class tomorrow morning (he doesn’t usually teach on Fridays, but all the classes are different because of the holidays)
i got a $500 spot bonus for compiling, editing, and beautifying a 711 page document and 132 slides earlier this month!
That’s awesome! I remember how hard you worked on that project.
thanks babe! i did work really hard and i had no idea my workplace did spot bonuses so it was a lovely surprise
and now i can buy this jolene jolene beauty bush i have had my eye on. Beautybush | Jolene Jolene® | Proven Winners® Shrubs – Proven Winners Direct™
The start of the last week of classes is on the extended forecast.
Successful dinner party for 7 last night. Tossed salad, seafood Alfredo, Chicken Alfredo and a Peach/blueberry/raspberry pavlova with a lemon cream filling.
Oh that sounds delicious
It’s so beautiful
Thank-you! I was pretty careful baking the meringue portion. I thought it would flop in our humid climate, but I had all the fans going in the house to get our humidity as close to 50% as possible…which is the highest they recommend for baking one. We were at 51%.
Plus I was fighting with a hand mixer that wouldn’t give me stiff peaks, despite 10 to 15 minutes on burst speed! Thankfully, “almost stiff” peaks were good enough. In fact, one person commented on a YouTube video that not beating to stiff peaks actually helped prevent the meringue from cracking?
However it worked, it looked and tasted great!
I did a hair mask for possibly the first time ever at my advanced age! My hair feels really nice! Who knew?
When I drive past a Trump sign I flip it off. It makes me feel better.
I like to practice my sneer of disgust as I remember Nanny’s words ‘Some people, are just a special breed of stupid.’
we gave BIL the first Murderbot book in December as part of the family holiday swap, and they have purchased the rest of the series and are up to book 5 now.
Got the Wordle in two!
@diapasoun was it you whomst recommended the yasso yogurt pops? I am in love
Two days ago the high was 103 and now we’re back to reasonable temperatures for the foreseeable future
On the phone with a customer service person, I managed to avoid the “you too!” at the end of the conversation when it wouldn’t have made sense with what they just said.
I remembered the existence of our work rewards system before ordering lunch out and got my little treat for free!
Looks like I have $150 worth of points in there so that takes stress off the increase in meals out since RTO.
I think so! They’re so delicious
