Tinder has been bugging the shit out of me the past few days trying to get me to upgrade to premium. After several ignored notifications I see my match que fucking skyrocket. It went away a few hours later - total ploy that never had a chance of working on me.

I mean, no judgement but you can’t say you haven’t noticed it either.

52/365 | 11A

Pro tip: When flying on an Alaska Airlines operated Boeing 737 - 900 one window seat in rows 11 or 12 will NOT have a window. I’ve known about this for a while and avoided those rows altogether unless no other options are available. When I have had to to choose something in 11 or 12 I’ve still always rolled the dice and selected a window seat (75% chance I still get a window) and have come out on top every time I tried.

That streak ended today and I am paying the consequences (5.5 hour flight ahead).

I know I use this phrase too much, but it is actually unbelievable how much shit was underneath that tree - that’s why the cones are there. They city had to put them up because there was so much shit.

92/365 | 39 hours later

I’m really happy with the texture, but that’s pretty much it. To my credit, it does have a “freshness” that’s nice but maybe that’s just my way of trying to spin the fact that it’s sorta bland. Disappointed and slightly confused with how little the leek and pepper flavor came through, especially since I doubled how much I used compared to some recipes I looked at.

But it cost me $15/lb to make instead of $50/lb to buy so it’ll be well well worth it to keep working out the kinks over the next few tries.
