It only took me 40+ years to take coffee culture seriously. Welcome to my kitchen, little buddy.

I would also recommend getting coffee beans and grinding them by yourself. That aroma just feels soooo goodΒ  πŸ˜‹

How is October treating everybody? I've continued to have some ups and downs; I love the Halloween season, but as Norway is headed into darker times overall, it can mess with my mental health a little. Pretty sure that on top of everything else, I have SAD. But we do our best to hang in there, don't we?

I've tried to stay busy with my...

Pro-tip if you're new to instant coffee like me and trying to find the best balance between powder and water: If you end up looking like you're unsure whether you're doing an impression of Robert De Niro or Clint Eastwoodβ€”and failing at bothβ€”it's somewhat too strong/bitter.

The roulette has made another choice for me: Paul Tremblay, which I'm not mad about at all! Between last year and this year, I have read several of his novels already, and I've become a great fan of his writing; one of my personal inspirations in my own project, to be honest.

The Cabin at the End of the World has been adapted into a

@niffler I'm excited to get started on this, because I have loved so many of his other books. My goal on Goodreads this year is 30 books, and I am currently at 22, so I've done really well so far.

How has everybody been doing lately?

I haven't done a Weekend Kickoff blog post in a while, because I've been both a little busy, and a little six. But I want to get back into it soon, just to give some regular updates.

When I say I've been sick, fortunately it has only been a light case of the flu, not Covid or anything like...
