I went to swig down the last mouthful of tea, but forgot about the tagless teabag in there and smacked myself in the face with a ginseng teabag πŸ˜†

I made a Basque cheesecake yesterday at the insistence of Miniest and today we just decimated it, there's barely ¼ left 🫣

On Tuesday the power company are shutting off the power for the whole day to do works. I've seen it as an opportunity to clean out the freezer, which has desperately needed it. Too many things in shitty containers and bagged food with pegs on that allowed foods to get freezer burnt in too short a time. Luckily I haven't done Xmas food shopping yet.

Is this what they mean when they say tea is invigorating?
