More drinks

So there was more chrysanthemum tea all day long. Then we got some new coffee from Veneziano and had to try it out. So here I am at 8.30pm drinking coffee.

Apple

Got a mandoline today. This is the result!

Sweet potato things

I soon discovered that they were moulded, which meant that they were processed to a goop before being squeezed back into a "sweet potato" shape for appeal! They were exceedingly chewy and sticky. But yes, they taste like sweet potato.

Cheese souffle for dinner

We had two each... Maybe that was an indulgent idea...

Chicken 3.50pm

Leftover roast chicken from Coles

Peaches

So it's a somewhat slow day... Not much food seems to be consumed.
I've also had chrysanthemum tea and a mixture of preserved cumquat, honey and hot water which my mum is sure cures colds. Well... I dunno.

More food 11.39am

So I think after having tried these (Ajita) and the Kettle Chips brand, I like the Kettle Chips better.

Snack 11.30am

Ye old faithful.. white sandwich bread, Kraft peanut butter and some kind of Polish blackcurrant jam.

Fairy floss 10.30am

This is not what most people eat for breakfast, right...? Call the fibre police.

Coffee 9.40am

So last month dad handed down his ALDI coffee machine, which is a huge beast, measuring 40cm in height and just about as round. Previously, I'd worked on a tiny Melitta that came with a VHS instructional video, if that gives a sense of age. The Melitta was about half or a third the size so in some ways I miss it's compact enthusiasm. My partner Phil seems to think the Aldi makes a fairly decent cup.
