Saturday of the Souls

[Marina Salty]

The lady that lives next door brought us a bougatsa she made herself and some milk waffers today. And we asked why and she told us it's because in Bulgaria (where she's from) this is the Saturday of the Souls so they make sweets to honour the dead and give them to friends and family. How sweet.

For reference this is a bougatsa

Looks like a delicious plate of heartburn. 10/10 would scoff.

 

[big ron]

Thats really wholesome though

 

[Beverley]

I adore bougatsa.

Is that an egg custard filling?

 

[Marina Salty]

Yes but i think it can be made without eggs too.

Well, this year's combo of jabs absolutely flattened me yesterday. I was slightly groggy at first and by 1 o'clock, I was burning up and all dizzy. Left work, got home about 2...then some absolute bastard started using the world's loudest leafblower outside. My fury only worsened my headache but he stopped at about 2.30 and the next thing I knew it was half-five.

On my last change on my way home. The rail replacement service wasn't quite the hellscape I'd imagined.

It all started off so sophisticated with cocktails in lovely Cambridge venues and then descended into gallons of wine.

Latest vax impact, I have serious wind . Just as well I live alone, otherwise I;d be getting dispatched to a hotel overnight while this wears off. Ugh.

Fireworks going off like crazy here

Fireworks going off like crazy here

Yes, and here. Thankfully the cats aren't in the slightest bit fazed, other than looking a bit pissed off if a bang is loud enough to wake them.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

As ever, Kitty has other priorities like demanding treats, sleeping, cleaning himself and generally being adorable to worry about fireworks.

Some people next door had fireworks out their back, and I shat myself much more than the cats did.
