@Satsuma also simply essential in an argentinian bakery hehe

i sometimes forget that local terminology is not ubiquitously known. i did at least manage to consider that calling them facturas instead of pastries would probably be confusing hehe.

@Satsuma yup. or a type thereof anyway. very classic pastry for breakfast or merienda here.

@Satsuma yeah! tho it was a bit busy? like lots of little seeds and nuts that imo it would have been better off without. but still v tasty. sofi liked the mini fruit pie she got (fewer options sin TACC). and we also got some medialunas which are a bit on the small side but v tasty.

@Satsuma neat. it is v common here. we got some pastries from a vegan bakery today (due to ML having a 7k discount on first order from their food ordering thing) and i went with basically sort of a cinnamon roll but with dulce de membrillo instead of cinnamon.

@Satsuma i still don’t have a clue what they even look like. but fortunately i probably wouldn’t just try to eat an unknown fruit or vegetable without further investigation anyway.

it's kinda fun that a fruit that i otherwise only know of from mentions in like, british television shows, i ate for the first time here and actually fairly frequently (well, things made from it)

quince/membrillo

for some reason today vivi has decided that her favorite place to play with her mouse is next to the cleaning cabinet that is sufficiently low that if she knocks it under the cabinet she can't get it out.

like, every time i throw the mouse for her, she goes and grabs it, then goes and brings it to that spot and plays with it a little while, and if she manages not to lose it then she takes it somewhere else (such as back to me)

kitties have such cute little mouths.

vivi likes to play fetch with her mouse toy

but i think she doesn't quite get that in order for me to throw it again she needs to actually bring it back to me. so sometimes she brings it to like, the doorway of the bedroom and drops it there and sits there watching me

@sigmaleph very

one of them is when she faves one of my posts about her

there are few things as satisfying as texting a joke to Sofi and hearing her laugh in the other room
