Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
- Something interesting that happened to you
- Something humourous that happened to you
- Something frustrating that happened to you
- A quick question
- A request for recommendations
- Pictures of your pet
- A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
- Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)
So how’s it going?
This morning I was making a coffee, I ground some beans into the portafilter and was pushing it with the tamper (in my hands…) and it slipped, tamper pushed down on one side, ground beans shot out the other, and in the chaos everything went flying. I had ground beans spread across most of the kitchen, and I found the portafilter in the fruit bowl next to the bananas. It all took quite some time to clean up.
I see some of us don’t have to worry about the cost of living crisis
Glad to hear that you did finally manage to get a coffee
Yep, very lucky I can continue to afford coffee. Though maybe not the coffee I want to have. $65 for 200g is a little too steep for me.
just not butter for the toast, 64% price increase in the last year
Hmm, just had a search and can’t find any less than $8.49 for a block. It doesn’t feel that long ago that the warehouse had their $5 loss leader butter.
I swear I’ve regularly seen it for $6.XX even recently.
Sounds like you should’ve had a coffee before you made your coffee 😁
😅 At least I managed to make another coffee successfully afterwards!
