Today's brain food: - chicken quarters from 🇵🇹 local farm with 🥗 brussel sprouts - steak from 🇮🇪 Ireland (it's just too good) In the pan because not frozen (so no airfryer potential) Then finishing off with 400g 🍦 Skyr to hit 180g protein

Made 🤤 Piet's Balls today: 1kg of minced meat (I use minced acém meat in Portugal, I think minced chuck steak in English, it's nice meat with some good fat) Then I use this pre-cut frozen garlic and onion, very good, let it defrost in a bowl a bit, it's frozen so the onion doesn't make you cry 👊 Then put it all together in a big bowl, add 1 egg, then salt (more than u think u need) and pepper, some paprika powder (always good on anything!), then add some flour so it gets more whole (ppl often use bread crumbs but flour is fine maybe better) and massage it all and fold it many times until it becomes one giant meatball I tried to make big Dutch meatballs (as big as a fist) last time but they're annoying to cook, takes ages and still raw inside Small ones like these are better and easy to cook in some butter, so I do that now The cooking is annoying still but okay, you gotta do medium heat (always on electric stove medium means like nothing comes out so more like 80%) and then you wait 3 mins for each side Because it's a meatball there's like 6 sides so it takes awhile, so yeah I'd say 15-20min? I thought about doing it in airfryer but it'd be less juicy but I'll try next time Anyway they were 10/10 excellent and JUICY and great protein source and gf + gf grandma loved them 😋

Some people doubt Bitcoin with a level of confidence they have never applied to investigating literally anything else they own. Their pension is somewhere. Their bank does something. A man named Keith selected their funds in 2014 and has since retired to a gated community where he drives a golf cart to get the mail. But Bitcoin? They’ve identified several concerns. They spent eleven minutes researching it, eight of which involved finding someone who agreed with them. Now they’re prepared to explain why a global monetary network must eventually surrender to an objection they developed while the air fryer preheated. My favorite is “I just don’t understand where the value comes from.” A perfectly reasonable place to begin learning! Bitcoin offers scarcity you can verify and ownership you can control. You can examine the rules yourself. Those properties deserve considerably more thought than “Keith never mentioned it.” Keith also needed his assistant to rotate a PDF. Perhaps civilization is allowed to develop beyond his recommendations.

in my mission to remove plastic and non stick from my kitchen, i’m happy to say i’m now a proud owner of a ninja crispi. the hype on x finally got to me so i bought one to replace my cheap, very plastic, non stick air fryer. tonight’s dinner is chicken tacos
