@streakmachine Somewhat inundated with dirty diapers?
@matigo Aluminium cups for tea or coffee are anathema to me. The stuff just doesn't taste right.
To finish off the soup made with the liquid I cooked the ox cheeks in, I need chopped onion, carrot & celery. A tomorrow job after the fat is skimmed off when it's cooled down.
Ox cheeks cooked to gelatinous perfection. The cooking liquid, being tomato-based pasta sauce, water & meat juices will, once cooled & strained of fat, become the base for a fabulous minestrone-style soup.
Have had a couple of lumps of meat going in the slow cooker for the last 7 hours. Not ready yet, at least two more hours on the low setting. Cooking beef (ox) cheeks in a diluted tomato-based pasta sauce.
@matigo Thanks. I wondered where that had got to. Been missing for a few weeks.
@matigo When I first saw the headline last week I thought to myself, "Well, it won't have been 'research' work by those bastard Japanese whale researchers." Then I read the article and it was their work after all.
October 15, 2015: received a Logitech M558 Bluetooth mouse from the Apple online Store. It's allegedly designed to go for at least 12 months on a pair of alkaline AA cells. Granted, I've not used it daily, as it's paired with the MacBook Air & I normally use the trackpad but I just tested the cells & both are still around 90% of original capacity. I see little reason to dispute the 12 month battery life claim.
