Tried the Kmart unscented moisturiser - I had my fingers crossed but within seconds there was a faint growing sting. Guess I have to keep getting the one that does seem to be ok.

Went down to Fairfield yesterday, it's such a nice spot.

I lived there for a few years and I feel now I didn't get to take full advantage of it. If I had the pannier bags for my bike then I'd never have to take the car to the main street

That deli/smallgoods supermarket up the non-station end of the strip was great. Used to be like a shop in a shop, called Marissa's kitchen. Best selection of cheese I've seen in Melbourne. I think it had some kind of woggy name last time I was there, Cardamone's or similar.

McAfee

I put in garbage can

[โ€“] Baku@aussie.zone 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I know this is probably a dumb question, but what is the deal with this McAfee man? Is he the one that made the scammy antivirus? Is this letter you're talking about about the antivirus? Does the antivirus send you letters, or is this something else?

Movie Review. Pixels. An Adam Sandler kids movie with a neat idea, aliens in outer space have seen our old school video games and thinking they were a declaration of war and challenge arrive on Earth and attack. Pixels refers to what happens when a person or thing is hit by alien fire. So anyway, some old guys who wasted their youth in arcades save the day.

It's a totally cute concept and looks really cool on screen. Story is a bit thin but do 12 year olds care?

Not the worst film I've ever watched

I have received my parcel of objects from the hoard clean out. Pretty much none of it is what I had hoped still existed. But I did get the proper bosuns whistle we used to punish telemarketers with. Glad to have it back in service. (After thorough sanitising!)

Gratitude thread!

Me today - went to a pasta making class with a couple of family friends. Nonna's cooking class is better but it was still fun.

I went back to yoga after a short break with a cold, I feel all stretched out.

I have a cat on my lap and a cup of tea to drink. And I bought myself some flowers today to brighten the house.

I've got a food question if someone can help:

Yesterday I took a couple of chicken breasts that were going to expire last night and cut them into little pieces and wrapped each piece in glad wrap.

I put all the pieces in a microwave safe container and in the freezer.

What's the best way to thaw them now? They are for the cat and I want to make sure she doesn't get sick.

Take out what you need and put it on a plate and put that in the fridge. You can put paper towel on the plate to catch any juices.

Legend! Thanks so much. I was wasting so much food before.
