I used my stroopwafel iron for the first time today. It's a waffle iron for thin waffles, oblies, ice cream horns and such, and the ideal tool for making the infamous Dutch delicacy.

I unfortunately started too late. I had 25 balls of dough that needed to be baked, and each took 4 minutes to bake, so you can do the math. I'll have to do the treacle tomorrow.

Nothing beats a relationship that actually works.

I came home two days ago but found I forgot my laptop cable (dunce dunce dunce)

So now I'm quickly doing all the necessary stuff online. BF sent me a new one but it won't be here before Monday.

Worked an extra day because of the work overload we're having (it's like coming back from vacacion and finding your housemates left a huge washing-up) and watched The Netherlands win Eurovision - something akin to watching Hell freeze over.

Congratulations.

I've had a complaint from the neighbours about the thumping noise from my studio, which is already pretty well sound proofed. The problem is the low frequency contact vibrations of the bass drum, so I've got to work out a solution.

Nah, then you'd get new neighbours. Just pierce their eardrums.

On the list of stupid things I've done I've just added "participating in the work-organized bootcamp."

I couldn't even make the jog to the park and I'm really sore.

Jeezzuss!!

I have a temporary solution, which involves filling the bass drum with quilts and blankets. This cut the transmitted vibrations more than half. I'll eventually have to build a raised platform for the drum set at one end of my studio.
