    Armchair side snacking on some of the leftover Halloween sweets. Finally went back to my FYP and am again feeling good and positive about it. I’m going to try and get my introduction done this week and then hopefully make a start on my second chapter as soon as possible after that. Seeing people’s graduation photos on social media is slightly motivating me, that’ll be me this time next year, fingers crossed

    It's ok though. Plenty of people in the same boat.

    Actually, it's costing me about a grand with flights and hotels. Ah - whatcha gonna do. It will be nice.

    Anyway. Had tea today. Is it wrong to have a black tea with milk? Hmmmm. No. :)

    Almost homeside.

    Yah. It's not so easy, but so worth your time! Wait 'till you have the thing bound and sent off. It's like finishing exams x 1,000!

    Bit stingy of superman to only be making five ounce burgers I would have thought.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 587 ✭✭✭Redneck Reject


    Just tasted Dunnes taco mayo. And licking a battery would be more favorable. I should open a Mexican diner because your being deprived on genuine Mexican cuisine. I don't know where in Mexico they came up with this stuff,heh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 406 ✭✭FluffyTowel


    Whoop whoop. Homeside.

    Was reminiscing about the 5 Guys burger this weekend. Is it actually as good as I remember? I do remember getting a milkshake with bacon in it though. Amazing!

    Edited - homeside, not homesite. Although both are good.

    Finally, someone who gets this :)
    Good fresh tasty Mexican food is one of the top things that I miss most about not being in the US. 777 Dublin is probably the best here in Dublin, it's Cal-Mex cantina style. Fun and good, and they do frozen margaritas. 2 for 1 on Sundays!

    Sigh. I have sooo many Mi Cochina Mexicana cookbooks, but never the quite the same when you have go do it yourself in grey rainy November with ingredients from Lidl... A friend just sent me link below: a totally adorable country Mexican grandmother's new youtube channel about her home cooking, she went from 0 to millions of views in like a week. She's fantastic :D

    Nah - was disappointed last week. But, my other favourite foodporn youtube site (Sam the cooking guy) tries to do a recreation... looks tastier than the one I had if you're handy in the kitchen!

    Sadly I agree, most of my ingredients I have to get shipped in since you can't get them here.Most the so called Mexican dishes here I'd only feed to the dog.It's great to know I'm not alone, thank you for that.

    There is only food or Tequila which also is lacking here.Certain Cuervos is nice but they also lack on the better brands like Extra Añejo.And as for Mezcal forget about it,heh.

    Heh,are you in California? I have a dear friend who lives in Heraldsburg.Which I took full advantage of her being in Wine country,heh.

    Being mollycoddled by Mrs S. I'm allowed do nothing. My back pain has eased considerably but one foot has gone numb. Doctor tomorrow hopefully, though I think it's just sciatic nerve issues from the back trauma. Mrs S's imagination, however, is running wild.
    Bored silly, which doesn't help my mood.

    Nope - Mexican food issues aside, happy in Dublin. Spent years in the Bay Area - some as a child growing up. And Chicago which somewhat surprisingly has great Mexican too - from the large population there.
    Spent a few Thanksgivings/holidays up Healdsburg way, would be back in that area for a few months every year if I had the $$$ and leisure time! They a bit (good) crazy up there though. Probably too much vino. :P Shocking the fire damage though - hear some people have now been hit twice in 2 years.

    Yeah so far my friends are safe from the fires. Surprised about Chicago having great Mexican food,heh.Hearldsburg is pricey but the choices of wines make up for it as does the views.

    Last night is what we call the Devil's night. Where he puts worry and anxiety in your mind.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 401 ✭✭Eleysian


    I did Mam thank you!
    I went out for a good walk in the lovely sunshine, met friends for coffee, caught up on laundry and prepped meals for the week. Now I am flaked out on the sofa with a cup of tea.

    Well we celebrate the Day of the Dead festival, But we also know the Devil has his, which is why you have dark thoughts. I know myself I had them and some may think it's superstitious but it does happen.

    Oh a family issue , where it looked like it was heading towards a physical altercation tbh . Tempers cooled this morning , and although it's not perfect , at least they're back talking :)

    Growing up I always fought with my brothers, still have a scar from one of those instance. But we always knew we loved each other and would always be there for each other. For us sometimes pride got in the way at the heat of the moment. We laugh about it now, but at the time, wasn't so funny,heh.But those moments do pass.

    I do know it is frightful and worrisome on others when it happens. I'm happy to hear they are talking because that's the beginning to resolution.
