Mint Spies

MintSpies@beige.party

<p>Fan of an eclectic mix of music, art, good puns and smut. UK-based secondary teacher by day; eating pies by night; the bit in between is mostly filled with jazz band and orchestra rehearsals.<br />I got here by fleeing mastodon.social. They say this isn&#39;t a cult...</p>

    I crouched down to stroke the little cat, and before I knew it, I was in-cat-pacitated. The burn in my thighs suggests that I need more training! #caturday #CatsOfMastodon

    @feijoa@mastodon.org.uk 😂 Far too chilly to expose any flesh on which to rub said cream - it&#39;s definitely a Big Coat day, whatever the sun suggests.

    @tempusfelix@wehavecookies.social silly and fun, but also exceptionally clever word-play. I do still ache, though.

    @tempusfelix@wehavecookies.social I fear that you are correct about a) the unwise jumping; and b) the slippery slope to tea. Oolong? Yes please!

    Went to a chap-hop gig last night (Professor Elemental, Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq, and Mr B The Gentleman Rhymer - strong recommend) and it was brilliant: great lyrics, ukeleles and excellent tweed. Why do I ache now?

    @eugeneparnell @gardening I&#39;ve been through the whole thread and could identify just five flowers - my green-fingered mother would disown me if she knew! Great thread.

    @evdelen @MissInformation no, it&#39;s thick cardboard (I used to work on a travelling steam fairground, and spent a lot of time putting music books through the Gavioli organ)

    Spent the afternoon in the deceptively-cold sunshine watching the cricket. Turns out that clotted cream is not an effective insulator, no matter how delicious. Pah.

    @SJAsh_03 good recommendation - everyone likes books!

    @wyatt_h_knott @ShiitakeToast That&#39;s a relief! I think I made sourdough scones during my sourdough escapades (which I think are most similar to your biscuits) but can&#39;t remember which recipe I used. They were delicious though, so good luck with your experiments!

    @wyatt_h_knott @ShiitakeToast are you talking UK biscuits or US biscuits? I&#39;m hoping it&#39;s the latter (I can&#39;t get my head round a leavened digestive or shortbread!)

    @Bumblefish Excellent - that&#39;s its new name henceforth!

    Today&amp;#39;s baking: less slumpy. Paying attention when weighing the water clearly helps.
