Heck yeah finished up at 2:30, did a full day's work including half hour lunch break and didn't manage to get too overheated. Left when it was about 33-35C. Nearly finished the section, rest is easy to do tomorrow... then the whole area will turn green on the app and look beautiful ๐Ÿคฉ

Swung by Laguna on the way home to grab some frozen tempeh (cos I've been craving it for a while) and yellow noodles (really craving a nice greasy mee goreng which will be dinner). But first I need a late lunch which will be rice with a bit of left over veg and a quick dal curry. I am going to make sure I have enough space for the glorious mee goreng though.

Can't wait to make the tempeh later this week. It's the goat of all vegetarian protein

I've made tempeh. Took a few goes to get it right. Kinda came out looking a little meth teeth with the fungus and soybeans.

Someday I definitely want to have a go at making it myself. Seems like it'd be easier than tofu

Nah, the whole temperature controlled incubation chamber is a bit of a drag to get right. Thermostat, esky, electric blanket, baking trays was my solution but it wasn't great.
