RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Instead of just saying it, I'll show it:


Siegfrieda enjoying her Christmas gift, Panzerfrieda Mk2. Kika also got a house (le Chat-eau), but taking pics from Kika is always tricky (if she notices you with a phone, she turns her butt towards you, as if saying "slap here").

My non-feline family also loved their gifts. In special my sister, I gave her a thermic bottle for her runs. (It's kind of weird to see her getting thinner than I, given it was usually the opposite, but I'm genuinely happy for her.)


I tried a new recipe, Stollen. It turned out amazing. A good sub for panettone, I gotta admit I suck at preparing it.


My hybrid pepper plant is flowering! I can't wait to see how the peppers will turn out. It's yellow bell pepper x dedo-de-moça (medium heat local pepper); I'm hoping to get large-ish, yellow, elongated, low but non-zero heat peppers. Perhaps I won't get them this generation, but as I further select peppers into a heirloom variety, I'll get what I want: the perfect stuffing peppers.
