Pan Roasted Chicken Breast with Dijon & Tarragon, Asparagus, and Cauliflower “Rice” #paleo
Woot, my knee-jerk don’t-overthink-it pub-quiz answer was Iran which seems to be [✓]. I ‘knew’ it was more populous than…

Living dangerously: starting a knitting project without making sure you’ve got enough wool to finish.
Yet the knitting gods have smiled, and I found one more ball. My chances of disappointing the Show judges are intact!
Getting slightly worried that it’s 8:15 and the gardeners aren’t here. Am I actually going to have to go to work after all?
Oh great. Builders finally wrote to say they’re *not* going to be here today. So I’m going to be hours late to work for nothing. Jerks.
And now the cooktop repairman is here. Likely continuation of Monday suckage, or surprise turn of events?
We have a working cooktop! I’ll never buy Blanco again, but I’ve got nothing but good things to say about @HarveyNormanAU. Thanks HN!
@henrytapia @the_snook Nope. He just seemed happy he knew where to find manuals on their crappy website.
@HarveyNormanAU Please thank Selwyn personally for me. I don’t know if he helped with solution, but his communications were much appreciated

RT @smperris: People really should unfollow more and argue less. Life is too short to spend it being outraged on the internet.
@drkknits You gotta make a list! It’s critical.

Anticipating very loud Tegan & Sara music and dancing bearded men with no pants. No, not going to Mardi Gras. Just Saturday night at home.
@witty_knitter @SandraHW Very nice! Where did you get it?

@randomknits You kill me. KILL ME.
@randomknits HOLY SHIT THAT IS GORGEOUS
Decided to cast on for 3rd Show item. Because really, if I don’t have the judging to bitch about for 12 months, my life will be empty.
On the plus side, it’s not beaded. Because I’m not an insane masochist, like my Knitting Show Nemesis @miss_reecie.
@miss_reecie My soundtrack: “You’re the Best” by Joe Esposito from the Karate Kid soundtrack. BRING IT.
@Alacaeriel @miss_reecie That’s bravery! My nemesis has an annoying habit of winning categories the first time she enters them.
@SallyPompom @witty_knitter Did you have wine? I find a glass of wine is crucial to that first cut.
@randomknits Is it underneath a BIG FRICKIN’ PILE OF LIBERTY PRINTS, maybe?
@SallyPompom @witty_knitter You steeked for the first time – SOBER? Me and the ghost of Elizabeth Zimmerman are quietly horrified.
@mattgemmell First Xmas with my now husband, he converted an NES controller to parallel port (it was 2000) so I could run MAME. #truelove

@Yarna_ Never. It’s been a very popular trend for the past few years now though. I give those people MEGA STINK EYE as I pass.
COOKIE CAKE! Happy birthday Kunaal! #diabetes http://t.co/UYM6719kc0
@drkknits @kunaal84 It was actually *very* good, if I do say so myself. Very sweet though – only small slices needed!
@witty_knitter @drkknits That’s how I call my family, so I’ll vouch for it.
@drkknits @kunaal84 I am on a literal sugar high. Head spinning.
@aunty_toots It’s an office joke.
In for a penny, in for a pound. After the COOKIE CAKE, I went with @kunaal84 and his missus to the pub. Uuuugggggghhhhh.

What is the point of people being self-righteous dicks on Ravelry if @drkknits isn’t on Twitter to laugh at them with me?
Nolite te bastardes carborundorum. Nolite te bastardes carborundorum. Nolite te bastardes carborundorum.
@eobeara It’s from Margaret Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale, which I highly recommend. “Don’t let the bastards grind you down.”
@crumpet That. Is. Brilliant.
@randomknits @drkknits Speaking of which, I heard a rumour that you were the very last member to re-up, at the very last minute! 😉
So many Liberty prints, so little time. http://t.co/xlZNomOcaX
@drkknits Poking them is probably a better strategy than trying to engage them rationally. I’ve given up.
The Snook just ate Cookie Cake for breakfast. This will not end well.
