Books
- How to Solve Your Own Murder by Kristen Perrin: Starts off quite conventional and stays that way for as long as I've read it.
Games
- Walkabout Minigolf: a new DLC was released on our last vacation day, so I had to play it immediately after return.
Recipes
- Pastel de Nata: will need to experiment more. It was good, but not quite as the original.
- Brigadeiros: this is much harder than I thought, because getting the sugar/milk ratio correct is essential, and I haven't found that one yet, even after collating many recipes into a table.
