Truffle butter and fancy softdrinks

Are you still using butter for your spread? that was the question posed to me recently and i answered, " i use liver Pate' sometimes".  Ahemm...... " life is too short to not eat fine foods".... behold the truffle butter. Made With real truffle and not the artificial flavor truffle fries where losers gulp down in hipster cafe. 

I am thoroughly impressed with my friend recommendation, he gave me a small sample bottle and the taste was divine. Like the first time i tried blue cheese as a teenager, you either close your eyes in disgust or close your eyes in pleasure. The same could be said with this truffle butter.

So i like to share it with you here this recommendation! to top it off, i am recommending an upmarket craft soft drink to go with whatever you are gonna eat with that spread.

New Semi Auto Terrapin Habitat

The terrapin has got bigger yet again and this time i can no longer manually do the water change as that would mean carrying over 60kg of water each time i do so.

I decided to invest in a good quality flood pump (suck water from the bottom) and set it up to a drainage and water supply system. Further enhancement could be made with a timed switch to make the system automatic. i decided to go with the semi auto method for now.

$166 for a Tsurumi Pump. A japanese brand that is famous for reliability and produces all ranges of industrial pump. This is their smallest pump.

1. switch on the pump and let the filthy water drain.
2. flow in fresh water and drain until clean.
3. switch pump off and add fresh water
4. Happy terrapin!
