Went to Aldi and saw some of those extreme thermo boots.
I almost bit the bullet but I wasnโt quite sure if those boots were going to be comfy enough or too warm for me to wear as I normally wear work boots to work and theyโre starting to go.
Still thinking if I should have gotten them or not.
I like going to musicals but havenโt been for some time because the current offerings are so boring. Itโs just the same shows being recycled. I feel like theatre has followed the same trend as pop movies, just reboots and reruns because they are safe. Original creativity is seen as too high risk. Itโs a bit sad when the art has left the arts.
I sort of agree, but at the same time my first experience of theatre was Cats and that is crazy.
Totally forgot I have those wifi multicoloured light globes.
Soft orange light is perfect to make music to.
Movies are being watched. First up, rewatching Judgement at Nuremberg for the 10th time.
It's just as powerful as the first time I watched it.
Every argument and defence that evil uses to justify their actions you can still hear today.
The best way to counter evil is to use your conscience in every aspect of your own life.

I braved the elements and brought my bins in. It's quite warm out there.
Is it? I know it was quite warm overnight last night, 15 was the low I think.
This morning wasn't too bad but the chill from the wind got to me eventually.
About to go outside for a little bit, it's all grey and overcast, I'm not sure what to wear.
My cooking attempts with chicken drumsticks for the last few days have sort of failed.
I don't know if I can be bothered getting flour today as this would make it my 3rd trip down to the shops.
Was going to attempt a batter using only cornstarch and egg with some heavy seasoning tonight and see how that goes.
This is for an air fryer as well.
If you want crispy chicken use cornflakes. Put them in a bag and crush them then add all your flavours with the crumbs. Lather your drumsticks up with yogurt, mayo or egg and roll the drumsticks in it. Airfry
following Thorn's tips next time buy tempura batter mix.
Would recommend mixing the batter with ICE cold water or even shaved ice for extra crispy finish. This is essentially a tempura batter that you are planning. Drumsticks tempura! The batter may well burn in the airfryer even on lowish heat, as the drumsticks will take MUCH longer to cook than the batter. Would recommend par-cooking the chooklegs in the microwave in moist heat, then battering them for the airfryer.
Thank you Thorn๐
