i just tried this with disappointing results. my milk was a week past its best before date though so slowdown is probably right. will try again with fresh milk!

In Australia you can't touch a thing in a rental pretty much and most land lords won't let you if you ask. For this reason I picked a place to rent that had a good kitchen already. It isn't the kit...

i pick lanes based on the operator if they have served me before and i was happy with their packing then i pick them if they have served me before and i was unhappy with ...

I did this once and then never again because I'm so limited by the space in the microwave it is either a *tiny* snack or takes too long to prepare.

meat sauce usually freezes well, its what i do instead.

i thought it might have been mango in the photo. i've had some delicious savory salads with mango in the past, i don't see why it couldn't work on a sandwich - and so summery! i'm lovi...

my parents have theirs outside. yes! outside. they have a semi-roofed patio and keep it out there. i was skeptical as gets the sun most of the day and during wild storms (tropical aus...

roast potatoes. be warned though. my dad is convinced he has narrowed down the moment where he went from not needing quadruple heart bypass surgery to needing quadruple heart bypass s...

i sleep on the couch when i can't sleep. some nights if i stay in bed i'll spend 3 or 4 hours just tossing around and keeping my partner awake while he is trying to sleep. i wish we h...

i love the big window in the bedroom. i wish i had those. i actually quite like the whole thing but agree that it does look very clinical. i guess the owners haven't moved in.

i like the look but all i can think about is summer. living in australia i often move furniture around for summer - the lounge, beds and chairs so that the person in them will get whatever breeze a...
