Is it because of the walnuts? The most foulest nut of all except in carrot cake.

I love sweet walnuts, I'm just sick of that salad. 10 apples, 1 whole bunch of celery, mayo, sour cream 1/2 walnuts, pepper. And then couldn't take it to xmas because covid. I also made 4 dozen shortbread and a giant loaf of olive bread.

What kind of olives did you use?

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

kalamata and I used a greek bread recipe. It's a sweet soft bread, crunchy crust and with delicious salty chopped olives

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I would devour that with a cup of soup. Yuuuummmm.

It's delicious toasted with tomato soup 😊

Westgate is mostly closed inbound from today right..? What about the ring road, coming from Geelong way...? Just figuring out airport timings for later.

I'm watching another Dicken's movie. I'd forgotten how absolutely horrifying and dangerous it used to be in England. In The Old Curiosity Shop some repulsive men scheme to capture a 14 year old pretty orphan girl by impoverishing her grandfather.

I've been watching some BBC Dickens movies. Yeah, old England sucked.

Getting hit by a vicious storm, this one is the most vicious of recent times. Drains stand no chance keeping up. Garage is flooding 😩
