mastodon 4.7.2I'm a resident of Brisbane in sunny Queensland. Have a cupboard love relationship with the garden, love growing things that I can eat - but everything else is left to the elements.
This account is going to generate mostly vapid chatter about veggie garden and related matters. Included but not limited to rants about weeds, weird bugs that I took photos of etc.
And occasional science/bioinformatics.

Warrigal greens going off. Might try some on my burrito tonight.
18 degrees in here ans I had to break out the beanie. I would not survive anywhere cold.
Does anyone know in Brisbane/Australia where you can buy/order bulk-ish (1kg-25kg) steel cut oats? ie, not rolled oats.
Used to be able to get from the local bougie bulk shop, but they've stopped stocking. The packets in the 'health food' section supermarket are tiny and expensive for meal prepped breakfasts.
This stuff (amulla/ winter apple) is nuts. It wilted dramatically and the leaves all fell off when I first planted it.

@joannaholman@aus.social I mean the rainbows would have a go if they could. Nothing personal though they're just like that. Lovely little horrors.
Of all the places that send orders in paper packaging (including tape), I was not expecting Howards storage world. Good on them I guess. Worms'll be happy. #packaging #vermicomposting

@linguistgoneforeign@mastodon.social I'm finding organic maps better for walking directions (theres a couple of places where google doesn't understand the concept of 'footpath', and tells you to go on a whole detour)

@JamesAshburnerCBR@aus.social @AnnonBudgie@theblower.au @arichtman@eigenmagic.net @joannaholman@aus.social this is why I give an annual tribute (protection money) to my local Maggie's (actually found them a grub this year)

@linguistgoneforeign@mastodon.social yeah, I didnt really understand that till I visited the us and had to cross a creek by via the narrow ledge on the outside of a roadbridge.

@Chrissy@mountains.social late 30s, and dont do many multiltiday walks, but planning one. I think I enjoy organising the food almost as much as the walk. Do like to dehydrate stuff (if going somewhere where I can take with). Do like the heavier, tasier premade stuff. And snacks. Wraps, salami and the hardest cheese we can find for lunches (always walked in cooler places where that works). Dark chocolate and port for desserts.

@Chrissy@mountains.social oh yes, museli/granola bars are great. Usually have those as backup meal, for when the mice nibble the corners of your lunch on the last day....

@Dangerous_beans@aus.social :theyre cute. Advice: Check your clothes pegs for dead gecko snack storage.
