Cherry tart update: The tart was transported in the tin, and was also successfully removed and held up well to being sliced. It was very yummy, my sister and I split the leftovers. I just had another piece as a pre-brdtime snack.

Margaritas. The salt will replace what you lose to sweat in the heat today. Plus hard solo is just expensive solo and vodka.

there's a place at qvc that sells yoghurt soft serve, maybe I can go halves or thirds

noooo, I must not , I had mousse yesterday

I eat ice cream every day and I've lost 10kg in 3 months. Portion control & prioritisation. You need some joyful food.

Living on cardboard isn't sustainable for me, it needs to be a lifestyle change I can stick to long-term.

And frozen yogurt especially is pretty low in calories.

Has anyone ever plugged their desktop pc into a large 4k TV for gaming?

If so, how was it?

Theres a game I want to play with friends but it's only on pc and I don't want to sit at my desk to play it.

Curious what other peoples experiences are.

Iโ€™ve ever only done it via a laptop with a direct hdmi connection.

With my pc I had to use steam link which went through the network. Sort of worked but crashed eventually after playing around with it for a couple of hours.

Urg. Doubted the rant so it's gone. Still feel yucky. Time for some vodka.

Ok this is way too early. Sometimes I wish I could sleep in.
