I survived the electricity. I woulld like to thank my rubber soled shoes. I'm not sure if that's a myth but so far still kicking.

Heading to aldi, going to buy some of their dumplings for the first time, amongst other things. Anyone need anything while I'm there?
Edit: anyone know the best way to prepare the dumplings? I don't have a steamer. I was thinking I'd do them in a frying pan with a very shallow layer of water, lid on

I lightly pan fry with oil (lid off), chuck some water in (lid on) give it a minute or two, lid off for a bit until evaporated and get them a bit crispy.

Not chicken. Theirs has an odd plastic taste.

Or… buy a steamer. The brown bottom method doesn’t work for all dumpling types.

Check out the chilled food section - Aldi sometimes has peking duck dumplings. They are yum but very rich.

Thunderbolts and lightning, very very frightening.

Movie Review. Kick-Ass.

Thoughts on an R rating for a movie about violence and force perpetrated and suffered by children.

In real life children can suffer all the same horrors as adults and too often do. I really do think we should put our effort in protecting children from real life violence rather than fictional violence.

And maybe fictional violence can help children understand the world around them better.

I don't like violence, doesn't mean it's good to pretend it doesn't exist.
