I did slow super clean bench presses with heavy weights. I let the bar down, let it stay on my chest for a second, and then pressed it slowly and steadily up. This way I cannot lift as heavy as when I do it with my optimal competition stance, but it really shifts the focus from technique to brute strength, which was the goal if this training session. My last set was with 145kg, could have done 155kg. To bench heavy you have to train technique and strength individually every now and then.

After being a brunette for so long, I bleached my hair blonde and toned it to a platinum blonde for 2019. I also completed my holiday shopping, and now I'm cleaning up the place after many days of neglect and my Bengal kittens who like hiding toys in everyone crack and crevice they can find in the apartment.

Bengals are so pretty! They are supposed to be great cats. They are amazing! I never had any before and I love them so much! I named them Nick and Nora after my protagonist in Fallout 4 and my fav companion from it! I suspect they have some tabby blood in there too, but they act like Bengals more than any other breed.

I started prepping my Bûche de Nöel for tomorrow. I burned down my first attempt of a flourless sponge (one of my siblings is "gluten intolerant"). Finally, I decided to use my usual recipe, and I am pretty pleased with the result (I still have to decorate it). I won't say anything about it to my sibling, tho Yes, the gluten free flour has a tendency to stick into everything like there is no tomorrow.. It is a real pain in the ass, tbh. Takes some practice to get it the hang of that kind of baking/cooking - and even the flour amounts might need adustjment. However, as one of those who has actual gluten problems and wheat allergies, I must leave a word of warning here, though. Be very sure that your sibling isn't doing that glutenfree stuff for some odd fad diet. If they do have actual problems with gluten, it may ruin their evening or the next day(s). Or they might start to ponder why are they having cramps/odd itching/burning/flareups/nausea/rash, if they supposedly have not had any gluten-containing foods. For most people it doesn't show up immediately. I don't want to be a spoilsport but for some, this is serious business, and I do not want to encourage the "I just won't tell them about it" attitude. No amount of smileys will make that better. You, SwoopingSanta, may (or may not; some people don't want to discuss their stomach cramps or rashes in private places even with even family) know your sibling well enough to know whether this is just some diet or is it risking their health. And still, it is their prerogative to decide what they eat. But some others might not know the person in a similar situation, so it makes me sad to see that sort of attitude towards it, in general. There are also other illnesses that can be controlled by avoiding gluten, than just the obvious celiacs disease and allergies. There's also a simple solution: just do your baking or cooking the usual way with wheat flour, but just tell your sibling that it has normal flour/gluten.
If they still decide to eat it, it is up to them. Simple. The person may decide to have a little, if their problem isn't bad or flared up atm - life is hard enough even without daily food restrictions. And the issue of avoiding certain ingredients gets more difficult, if it is a food item that is usually done without flour, so they might not even expect that food to have any. Especially in that case, the guest(s) will certainly appreciate knowing about it in advance. * * * TL/DR: people have their dietary restrictions for some reason. Whatever the reason, be it illness or health decision, should be respected. You do not have to make 100 types of foods for all allergics or intolerants, just don't lie about/misrepresent the foods you are offering. That is just inconsiderate.

Today I tackled a decoration problem we've had after removing the gas fire from the living room. An electric fire will go in it's place but we don't have one for the holidays, so I had to get creative and make something to cover the big brick hole in the room... P.S. I signed a book and placed it in the corner should Arktinen get her magnifying glass out. It's a bit blurry but I cba to take it again.
Oh, that's a great creative solution to the problem! Looks like it's meant to be there with other pressies. I bet if there were any kids around, they'd have their fingers itching to unwrap the Big Present too! Happy Xmas and holidays to you too! PS. Seems I was the only one not needing a magnifying glass to read it.

If she REALLY had an intolerance I would do whatever I could to make a gluten free dessert; but I know she hasn't. She is been eating stuff with gluten for all her life and she didnt even had a cramp, as you said, it is possibly just a fad diet. It was a joke, as I already said, I will tell her that it is my usual Bûche de Noël and hey, she will eat it anyways . But you are right, real diet restrictions exist for some reason, and I totally respect them.
I wish you a merry Christmas!
