A couple of months back, my password-protected door lock started giving issues. When I closed the door, the electronic mechanism just beeped and said “it’s intercepted” instead of the comforting “It’s locked”. The best I could do to fix this problem was to change the batteries.

The death of a bread toaster: A life lesson
We love toasted breads and we need around 16 toasts (8 each) two days a week. Tuesdays and Saturdays to be precise. I love toasts with omelettes. Sometimes peanut butter but mostly omelettes.

Personality Vs Behaviour (Don’t hate someone for their personality)
