Laika: ***Buuuurrrp***
[Looks up at me]
Laika: what was that crazy sound?!? Did you burp? I didn't burp! What was it?!?!
Me: At least it wasn't one of your farts. 😆
I normally don't bother with cooking trends, but not gonna lie, the Big Mama's cinnamon roll cake that's all over reddit sounded delish... So I made it.
Laika's latest thing is jumping up behind me to lick the back of my head while on zoom calls.
It's behavior I should discourage, but also it's pretty darn cute.
Total time from drop off to clearing security at Schiphol was 3 hrs!
After a little bit of duty free shopping (& acquiring a peated port finished Dutch whiskey) I made it to my gate just as they started boarding.
I'm about 48hrs into this Sydney trip & the whole thing can best be summed up as "parks, walking & stereotypical Aussie foods" 😆
Lammington, meat pie, jaffles:
OLCC (state liquor control) claims there are 4 bottles of Blood Oath Pact 8 for sale in Portland. After calling the shops, it turned out this was the only bottle left!
My last canelé in Bordeaux.
I didn't eat nearly as many as I had intended, because surprisingly many of the small patisseries don't offer them. Of the big 2 chains, Bailladran was better than Toque Cuivrée (in my limited sampling of data).
This morning @nonsie asked me what we had eaten, but wanted to know in English. Google translate doing it's thing 😆😂🤣
(I mean, technically, yes, it's a type of meat/sausage pie)
