Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So how’s it going?
It’s raining!
This morning we are going to the local market and doing some recycling (including a quick visit to the re-use shop to make sure I’m not missing out on any books). It sounds boring but after a pretty rotten week I’m revelling in having such a simple list of things to do at my own speed.
Sounds good! I love going to the market. But I always end up spending savings from cheap veggies on fancy bread.
The SO decided it was raining too steadily to traipse around a carpark looking at onions so the market was a no-go. Maybe next weekend…
In the meantime, I tried making porridge from scratch for the first time since I was about 8, an Icelandic variation with cinnamon and vanilla. It was nice but it’s definitely a weekend thing - our stove takes forever to heat up.
This might be a food abomination but I blend up oats, then it takes 2 mins in the microwave to make porridge.
It’s not fancy Icelandic porridge though.
During the week I use the sachets and cook it in water which is probably a bigger abomination, haha.
