• I’ve added a casual chat room to CookingBites as a place for off-topic banter, light conversation, and short-lived chit-chat that doesn’t belong in forum threads. The chat room is informal and lightly-to-not moderated, with messages being temporary, so it’s ideal for friendly back-and-forth that would otherwise derail discussions. Site rules still apply, but there’s no reporting system or expectation of post-by-post moderation - if something becomes uncomfortable, the right response is to step away. If a topic has substance or lasting value, it still belongs in the forums; everything else can head to chat.

Plans for today (2026)

My only plan today was to continue weeding the garden (done), tidy up after the gardeners (done) and make an egg curry (done).

Do you want a job?

The lawn needs cutting. The borders need weeding. The veg plot needs watering and weeding, there's plants that need potting on, planting out or watering, and the lawn needs weeding as well.
 
Hahaha! I've got two plots up the top of the garden, which fell into serious disrepair when I was in the UK 2 years or so ago. It's taken me until now to get them back into shape. Today I removed a large, black bag full of weeds from one, sifted through the earth for about an hour or so to make sure I'd got rid of everything nasty, added two 20kg bags of prepared soil, relocated the two galangal plants and throughly cleaned the area around the (4) bananas and plantains. Now, at least, it looks nice.
Tomorrow, I'm going to put some red bromeliads along the wall in the front garden, just to give it a bit of colour. I'm also going to fumigate the front garden.
 
While others watch TV, I played with my new Turbo Tax, quick input of things off my head and it looks like I overpaid my tax last year. I hope I’m right on this. That means I may get some money back. It’s very strange, the sum just departed my account in Dec and now it will come back, partially of course.
