persimons recipies
Mostly links for my reference. Although if anyone else has been talking to Tim you might find this useful.
Fuyu are the type I have, and the readily available type in australia. Either the ones I had weren't ripe yet, or they store a lot longer than 3 days at room temperature, more like 10 days. They freeze well.

rent
Hi Melbournians,
In the next few of months I'm looking at moving. The exact timing is fairly flexible. I can afford to rent a much nicer place if I share with someone. Is anyone interested? I'm looking for a compatible aquaintance/s (ie geeks), otherwise I'll stretch my budget to live alone, but 2 bedroom places are nearly as expensive as 3 ( Read more... ) -

SCA Quandry (again)
There's a personal challenge that I've been meaning to set myself for at least a year and a half, probably much longer - to enter every Kingdom A&S competition in the SCA for a year (from rowany festival to rowany festival). Last year I was busy, and the A&S topics were uninspiring. This year, I find the A&S topics even worse, but I'd like to ( Read more... ) -

At the Krae Glas craft hall it became obvious that the sunshade project needs a set of standard dimensions to make a standard krae glas sunshade. And we need them written before our next sewing day. I know what was proposed, but would like to tidy a few details.
The bits that need to be the same for everyone (the standard template), in order of us ( Read more... ) -

Musing on the options for this month's tiny sustainability improvement.
I know a couple of you dear readers have been experimenting with reusable mesh bags. So how has the experiment been working? What are the advantages and disadvantages? What presumed actions have to be part of your weekly habit for using these to work (other than the obvious taking them to the shop ( Read more... ) -
Canberra and August and St Vitas Dance
August will be a big month for dancing, with the Bal d'Argent locally, and St Vitas Dance Weekend in Canberra on the 29th and 30th. I had a ball at the last st Vitas, and I plan on going again and maybe arriving early and catching up with a few canberran non-sca friends.

waiting
Yesterday I was madly sneezing and exhausting my supply of hankies, with few other symptoms. Today I dutifully stay at home to avoid spraying workmates and other than tired and a bit mentally slow, exhibit only mild symptoms, certainly not yesterday's spectacular sneezing fits. I'm waiting for this to turn into a full blown cold (not flu, ( Read more... )
