Lazy Sundays are fluffybutt approved.

Which is good because I just woke up from a two hour nap.

Awesome I was wondering what it was (I saw it on a walk). Really beautiful colours. And I had two special people who are no longer around. One loved yellow roses and the other pink/red so it made me smile ๐Ÿ˜Š

It's a yellow roses and dragonflies kinda day

My favourite sat thing is to get up at 6am like normal, open blinds, brush teeth etc then crawl back into bed

All I need to do is write up some notes from today's meetings and update some stuff in jira and just review my todo list and I've been staring at the peregrin falcon livestream for 15 mins. BRAIN FRIED.

 

four potatoes, three capsicum, one zucchini, three carrots, one eggplant, on quarter pumpkin, three parsnips, two onions

I got a $30 mystery veggie box from QVM and am planning my weeks food. Thought I would share here for a bit of fun to see what other suggestions I get. I also have some chuck steak in the freezer and a pretty good pantry.

My ideas so far include

  • pumpkin and parsip soup
  • maybe grilling those capsicums as a side dish
  • mashed potatoes and a hearty stew (onions and carrots)

But I am open to suggestions!

 

What is your meal planning style? Any good meal planning tips?

I am trying to get better at meal planning because I always start off strong then get bored / run out of food at the end of the week. For while I have been doing a big cook on Sunday but this week I am trying a basic menu and cook as I go. Hoping that having a plan will make it easier.

My plan (one person) is

  • red lentil curry + coconut rice (3 serves made today)
  • instant pot spag Bol (3 serves made Monday night)
  • a beef stir-fry (X 2 serves) made wed night
  • quick ramen noodles + stock and frozen veg in between

Ideally I would prep veg today but I have been away and am tired and can't be bothered so will prep as I go.

What other things are people doing?

 

Fingers crossed its not H5N1.

 

My old xps13 is old in the tooth and the new ones have some things I don't like. So I am after recommendations. My preferences

  • Linux (Ubuntu/Debian friendly). Happy to wipe and install and will check compatibility beforehand but if anyone has a Linux daily driver they love let me know
  • good CPU and decent RAM (32gb would be nice)
  • Lightweight - smaller preferred (currently on a 13" and happy)
  • Touchscreen would be nice
  • Usb-c
  • Decent battery life

I have access to other machines for heavy GPU stuff that's not as important as CPU and RAM.

Uses:

  • Programming/terminal use
  • Reading docs and papers
  • Watching movies etc
  • No gaming

That's my wishlist. What do you suggest, Aussie tech friends?

 

Anyone have an instant pot? Any foolproof recipes? I just got one (thanks Santa) and wondering where to start.
