(no subject)
After several weeks of being unable to breath through my nose 90% of the time (for this I blame a variety of things: pollen, cat hair, dust etc. etc.) I have finally discovered a saviour: Airwaves! Oh minty gum, how I love thee. Even if you only clear my nose for a few minutes at a time it's a damn sight better than nothing. And it means I can stop putting olbas oil over everything I own, and can stop being, as Anton put it, "a menthol goddess" (quote of the day from said boyfriend: "I was thinking, this is pretty vigorous sex, but I can breathe really easily.")
Anyway. Things that are going on. On Sunday I have to go to Southampton to clean out our house so they can't argue the deposit. This means a 2.5 hour drive down, eight hours cleaning and then another 2.5 hours driving back. OH JOY. Everyone else is already there or only 40 minutes away, so no one seems to have really taken into account the fact that I live 150 miles away. I didn't even make ANY of the mess. Grumblegrumblegrumble.
Tomorrow I should be teaching Anton how to make buttercream roses, assuming my leftover buttercream is firm enough. Should be, I think. Speaking of cupcakes, this is how the piratey ones turned out:
Not bad, I think :)
