Aug. 5th, 2019 06:29 pmWhen I woke this morning I first had to clean up after one of the cats and then went into the kitchen and saw 'something' all over the table. At first, I thought one of the cats had had a mega vomit session but on looking closer it was clear and sticky. Turns out the watermelon I'd had on there had started to turn on the inside and horrible sticky stuff had seeped out of it all over the table and fruit basket. What a waste of a good melon.
Yesterday we went to see the new Fast and Furious movie. It was ridiculous and stupid in an entertaining way with barely five minutes of plot in a long movie, so really, exactly what I expected going in.
In an attempt to make a dent in the mounting courgette pile, yesterday I made courgette and sweetcorn fritters and they were delicious. Plus, I had the bonus of having all the needed ingredients at hand so I could easily make them again if wanted. Though, after researching a bit, next time I'm going to bake them as I prefer not to shallow fry stuff if possible.
Today I've made another crustless quiche, spinach, tomato, cheese and onion this time. Sadly not with my homegrown tomatoes as despite having loads they're still green atm, but they should start to turn soon. Sadly the quiche broke up so I think my egg to veg ratio was off. Still, it tasted good which in the end is the important thing.
I've been reading winterhawk with a side of Leverage lately. The winterhawk stories are ones I'm following but for Leverage, I'm tag surfing the OT3 Eliot/Hardison/Parker tag. I'm in the middle of an interesting long fic which is a crossover with The Laundry Files, which I've never heard of, but the writer has caught my attention with the story and I keep going back to it every night.

dine has just set me off watching Nsync's The Lion Sleeps Tonight. As I said in comments, I will forever love Chris' voice in that, and despite being such low budget and quality, I really like the video too. I suspect if I wasn't busy cooking tea right now I would have been set off on a youtube spiral. As I am cooking tea, sorry nostalgia, back in your box you go.
