Twitterings without Twitter

Lots of birdlife in our yard at the moment...magpies, crows, mynah birds, rainbow lorrikeets, wattle jacks...excellent practice for my fledgling mindfulness skills to just stand out in the yard and watch them.

Yummy, yummy toffee made on the weekend -
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 cups macadamia nuts (chopped)
Combine. Stir continuously so that the sugar doesn't burn. When the sugar is dissolved and everything is a lovely brown colour, spread on greaseproof paper and allow to set.

Back to my goth-y inclinations yet again. Bauhaus, "Bela Lugosi's Dead". They were in their heyday in the 80s, I believe, but I have only just discovered them by way of Poppy Z. Brite's novel Lost Souls.
