Speaker 2 (00:23):
Welcome back to another episode of Am I A Bad
Mum Podcast. We were just having an interesting conversation before
we press called on the microphones about mums and drinking alcohol,
and everybody's completely different, but there's definitely a theme. I
speak to so many other mums that like, oh, near wine.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
It's Monday, but I'm going to have a wine.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
And I feel like it's something that we then shame
ourselves about as well.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Yeah, I think we were talking about it from the
sort of perspective of you're coming from your angle on it,
and I was coming from my angle on it. I
said to you just of late, I sort of noticed
a different habit forming within my own behavior around alcohol.
We've openly discussed this many of times around like you
(01:15):
try and go Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, whereas like I said,
I'm struggling at the moment with the Monday, Tuesday Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
But then we spoke about why we like, why are
you doing it?
Speaker 3 (01:25):
It's interesting to know everyone's relationship habits with alcohol, I think,
and moms in particular, obviously, mums, dads, grandma's, granddads, whoever's
doing it.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
But alcohol is a tough one.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
I definitely think that there's an element of reward. We've
got through the day, We've done a million things, the
kids are sorted.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
I deserve this kind of thing. There's definitely that.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
There's the and I know after speaking with you, and
enjoyment when doing shit jobs that you don't really want
to do, you're just trying to make them a little
bit more fun.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
And then there's relaxation.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Yeah, so that was that was part for you, where
you're like, I don't touch anything until I'm literally sitting
in my pajamas and relaxing, and you know that you
can sort of take a big sigh and just know
that the day is done, and that's when you enjoy yours.
Whereas me, I'm one hundred percent very aware of what
I'm doing and why I'm doing it, which is one
hundred percent avoidance of doing the things I don't overly
(02:28):
enjoy doing. And that is that five o'clock to seven
o'clock sort of rush. And it's not every night, because
every night in our house differs of where I am
and what I'm doing. But if I'm at home and
I know that I'm not going anywhere for pickup of
any sort of child related thing.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
My thought process is I might just have one sider,
just one.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
See, I'm not very good at just having the one.
That's my problem. Easier to have none. I went through
a RBT the other day. I drive down this road
all the time. I've never seen an RBT down there.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
That's because someone's called it in and said there's mums
and dads going home from work like at this time,
look for them.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
It was such a random time, was like five pm
or something. And funny thing, rach, I can see the
guys pulling people over ahead, so I've like slowed down.
Isn't there a funny thing with RBTs in that you
know you haven't had any alcohol at all? Right, but
there's a part of you that goes, oh shit, am
(03:32):
I drunk?
Speaker 1 (03:35):
You're just about to do? Oh god, am I over?
Speaker 3 (03:37):
No? I get like, I get really smug and go
like I got nothing to worry about here. Yeah, And
then that part of you in the brain goes, what
if what if you last what about your one sider
last night?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
What if it's still in your sister?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
So I pulled up to this policeman and I'd got
my license out and He's like, I don't need to
see your license unless you've unless you've been drinking. And
I was like okay, And then I went because I
was feeling good about myself too because I knew I
hadn't had anything. And he said, yeah, I don't need
to see a license unless you've been drinking. And I
went not yet. I went a bit early and he said, oh,
(04:16):
it's never too early. Any time of day is acceptable
to have a drink, just don't drive.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Afterwards, I was like, okay, okay.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
The funny thing about that RBT rate I was on
my way to the bottom shop.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Am I a bad mum for watching and just not
joining in?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
This one is just a little bit of fun, lightheartedness
of we live in a pocket outside of Brisbane. I
ding K's out of Brisbane. So for me, I drive
out every day. It's not a drama. For some people
on the weekends they feel like they're driving to the country.
And we've had a particular landmark make our little town
(05:08):
and it is the Kenilworth Bakery.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
I've heard of it, so it's a change.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
The Kenilworth is a little town Sunshine Coast Inland, kind
of from Noosa and they're well known for donuts, Like
people drive from Brisbane to go.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
To this donut shop in Kenilworth.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
And now she's opened her fourth store apparently no more
after this, and the fourth one happens to be in
sleepy little Samford.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Oh that's exciting.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Well, it is exciting until you want to go anywhere
on the weekends and Saturday and Sunday.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Now you cannot move. Oh it's brought in tourism. You
can't go anywhere, Katie.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
I can't even drive to my local overpriced IgA to
get some sour cream for dinner because you can't get
across the roundabout. This is like it's arta chaos, all
for the sake of donuts.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Yeah, wow, because there was that. What's the other places?
Brookies Cookies, Brookies Cookies, chirm side, I think.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
But at the same time people line up for it, right, yeah,
that's but then it dies down.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
It's like they do I don't know if they do
TikTok advertising on whatever they do. But then it becomes
like a trend. Everyone wants to taste.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
When everyone's doing this right now, Yeah, everyone's coming to
stand fed right now. So then you've got these lineups,
line ups.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
For donuts, and I was like, no, if you sue,
I'm not joining in. Don't want the lineup.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
I don't want to line up number one number so
many people in our town right now that I can't
actually even get around, and it's kind of like SPOTL
the local. So now I'm not vibing out either. My
kids were like, Elsie and Gracie, right, we're down. We're
sitting at Cannon and were having coffee and they're sitting
there just staring at this lineup at all.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
But must be so good, like we want to just
go and try it one.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
I looked at them and say, do you want to
go on line up for a donut? Do you know
that your time is worth more than that lineup to
have a donut that's.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Eight dollars or something like that?
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Yeah, mum, why is so like, come on, come and
line up with us. You're such a Debbie downer. You
just don't understand it's amazing. I said, you don't know,
it's amazing. Could be shit donuts.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
I was like, but you don't know because you just
want to get in the fad because of that line Yeah,
I said, if you want to knock yourself out, I
will be here. I can also see the lineup and
they're like really, and I was like, yeah, here's some cash,
go knock yourself out at the donut.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
See you in about an hour. Did they line up?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, they lined up for a donut and they got
the donort, they got the donut, they got a donut each,
and then they came back. Oh mum, so many people
in there, so many like flavors, YadA, YadA, YadA.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
There's a meat along donut. What I feel like getting
the meat long donut and belting over the head? Whoever
buys that? Because that is horrible meter long donut donut?
Who does buy the I don't know. Do you like
buy a.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Meat long donut for a whole group of people, like
an office or whatever.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
And you maybe cut it up?
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Or maybe you just love donut that much you want
to eat a meat along donut?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
But they apparently do like pies and sausage rolls.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Obviously it must be good because people keep coming back
every weekend and the fat.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Hasn't rolled out of town yet. I'll get a question
for you.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Yes, did you try a bit of the girl's ye donut?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Because they didn't eat them? All, I had a little
quarter of it.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Yeah, and what did you think, It's just like any
other donut. Yeah, but I think you're angry with them.
I think I'm angry about how busy it's made.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Your little town.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Yeah I am, and that you can't get around anywhere.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
I can't get anywhere so busy. It's so busy bakery.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
And so I think that even if that donut was
the best donut you've ever tasted, I don't do.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
So. The only thing good I'm going to say is
it got me a quiet coffee whilst I could see
my children down the street in the lineup, so they
were down there. Whilst they're down there, I've got peace
and quiet having my coffee in the sun. They loved it.
They were a part of it. They were excited. Then
(09:15):
they got home and they ate these donuts and they're like.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
I'm just gonna put it out there when you see
a line like that, like your girl saw the line
and were like it must be amazing, Like they must
do the best donuts to have it that busy and
to have a lineup outside.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah, Okay, this is a conspiracy theory, But do you
think the owners of the bakery have done, i know,
rent a crowd or something like that so that people
think that it's the best bakery ever.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Look, there's so.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Many people outside, so many be so good, creating a
ripple effect of people.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Then well look at the knock on effect. My ten
and twelve year old just saw it.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
The eyes and the dopamine hit and then they were
gone and they wanted to be a part of it.
Then they come back, they're so let down because I'm like, oh,
it's just another donut. Actually, on the opening day, just
to add on to this, the lineup was all the
way out of town because they were giving away free donuts.
So people lined up for three hours to get a
(10:23):
free eight dollar donut.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Yeah. I saw there was a new GYG that opened
up on Gimpie Road and I was driving home and
I was.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Like, wow, the traffic, traffe what are they doing?
Speaker 2 (10:36):
And then I saw on the sign they were doing
something like it was either five dollars or ten dollar burritos,
and it was like, I think it was five dollars,
like all day for five dollar and I was like,
oh awesome, And I had a moment of going, oh,
just pop through the drive through, grab the girls.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
They loved do id and.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Then I saw the line right. They even had someone
doing like traffic control outside. I slowed down, ready to
indicate and try and pull in. And then I saw
the line, and I went
