I'm going to be making a German meatloaf called hackbraten. Pretty straightforward until you get to the part about the GHERKIN. The idea about squishing meat inbetween my fingers does not appeal but eating meatloaf does. Ah the things we do for love.

This following post is well overdue due to the protest.

Indonesian village life:

  • Chickens everywhere. Sometimes playing games of chicken with motor traffic

  • 5 minute trips turning to 20 minute ones. The extra 15 minutes comes from pulling over multiple times for chats because you just passed a friend or family member

  • Wood fire cooking

  • Motorcycles everywhere

  • Congested 4G mobile internet

  • Greeting almost everyone you pass by. Special emphasis on the elderly.

  • Well water. OR walking to fetch water from a nearby river or creek.

  • Burning rubbish (for waste disposal)

  • Use of water and leaves to clean yourself after shitting (no toilet paper)

  • Groups of kids asking passing truck and bus drivers to blow their (sometimes musical) horns, then cheering them on once they do.

  • More chickens everywhere.

Anyone else getting those romantic (read: horny) ads for Gold Coast? It’s got a couple romantically frolicking in pretty locations and I’ve gotta be honest, that’s kicking me on 2 fronts at the moment.

Oh, and happy FF XVI to those who play it. Mrs B is super duper excited.
