@awfulwoman Thank you for this, because I realise that I totally missed season 4 🤦🏻‍♀️

I can't believe we got vibe coding dogs before GTA VI

@brunty Absolutely. Just being outside more does it for me too. I bloody hate living here when it's winter 😔

More of this please, UK 😍

@paulrobertlloyd Tell that to all the frogspawn that gets munched 😆

@skinnylatte For some reason I saw this post first and was pretty confused until I got to the top of the thread, haha 😆

Earlier I went to inspect my pond that I made last autumn, and SAW A NEWT. It'll mean I likely don't get tadpoles, which I'm sad about as I mostly built the pond for the frogs, but still... ACTUAL LIFE!!

@skinnylatte Thanks to Ryan, I think it was these! No giraffe, so no idea what my head was doing with that red herring, but this is what I was thinking of. Thanks to all you snack hunters 🩵

@philry4n Yesssssss Ryan I think you've cracked it!! I have a vivid memory of one having a giraffe on which may have skewed it as those look distinctly water based (pola?), but those are definitely it I think. Thank you!

@philry4n Ah thank you but indeed not quite right. Mine were more 3d shaped, and definitely had the animals drawn on them. The hunt continues!

@catalinaa @geliga Thank you! It was totally different to krupuk (also delicious though), and a different kind of hollow with a thin, solid, crunchy exterior and small (2-3cm but not trusting my child's view of sizes fully!) 😆

@geliga Afraid not but thank you for the suggestions! 😊

The top ones are too flat, my ones were rounded and thinner to crunch.

Panda ones - similar concept for sure but savory and not filled

@catherineweird They have to get up the hill in the first place though. Maybe the article is commentary about how their usual porters are unavailable, so the team have to carry it up themselves?

A much needed and very wholesome weekend with my brother (+ his family) and our mum to celebrate her birthday. Good food, way too much cake, a house full of children causing chaos, lots of laughter, an awful night's sleep for everyone because we're all so jammed into unfamiliar and partly temporary beds, but this is what memories are made of 🩵

@skinnylatte ooh I don't think so... the one we're thinking of had the animal picture printed on it, kind of like the koala/panda chocolate ones do (but savory instead). Thank you for the guess though! 😊

@skinnylatte Hello! I have a niche question my brother and I are trying to remember about. Given your food expertise I wondered if you'd know 😆

We grew up in #Indonesia + have memories of a savory, hollow, animal shaped crackery #snack. I remember one had a giraffe on it, and the packet was maybe a cardboard box. I know that's not much to go on!

Any chance you or any other SE Asian food lovers stumbling on this happen to know what they were called?

Edit: found! ✨ See reply!

Lunar New Year x Pancake Day is the best crossover

@Edent Oslo:
If you get travel pass you can get on some of the ferries for free, which take you on a loop around some of the closer islands. We had a small human so didn't get off to do walks, but some are meant to be nice. Ferries go from Aker brygge, maybe route B1?

The Fram museum was very interesting. Also Kontiki.

Stayed at The Thief which was lovely. Near to Astrup Fearnley Museum (free outside bits)

Skiing in Skimore Oslo, v close, if you're into snow.

Opera house views. Big library

@Edent Copenhagen:

https://frederiksbergmuseerne.dk/en/cisternerne/ - closed until March, v small but interesting both times I've been.

Aire if you're into spas and relaxing underground in silence with lots of brick and candles.

The Carlsberg district and the elephant gate and tower are interesting to potter around.

The Roundtower, Copenhagen Contemporary art.

Kastellet is ok, but the little mermaid is underwhelming.

Do you have any dietary preferences or requirements?

@paulrobertlloyd Ah thank you, but I'm not always coping! Particularly being off antidepressants for the last few months has definitely made things harder, and mental health has been a battle with smaller things as well as bigger ones. But if anything, I'm good at plodding on and trying. Thank you for reading, as always!
