· Picked and pressure canned the first 3 pounds of green beans
· Blanched, bagged, and froze 15 ears of corn (off the cob).
· Turned 15 pounds of tomatoes, a head of garlic, and a lot of basil into 4 pints of sauce (it took a while).
· Scrambled around to list a few more items on eBay with D.
· Dug up 15 pounds of Yukon Gold tomatoes.
· Listened to the
inaugural Slash Report (while snapping the ends off green beans).
· Read some fic (proper recs forthcoming):
Don't Threaten Me with Love Baby by
deastar [The Vampire Diaries, Damon/Stefan/Elena, PG-13, 2.887 words]
“Don’t enjoy this too much,” I told Damon’s unconscious body as I slid down the bed to lie by his side, curving my body around his, willing it to absorb the heat.
Raising Loki by SkiesOverGideon [Thor, Gen, PG, 4.368 words]
I'd like to see how Odin and Frigga struggled to raise Loki because, hey, Jotun baby =/= Aesir baby. Maybe he doesn't drink milk. Maybe he grows faster/slower than "normal". Maybe he goes into hibernation, or gets horrible sunburns in 70 degree sunshine, etc etc. I want to see Odin and Frigga panicking and going "OSHI- WHAT DO WE DO WHAT DO WE DO?" and realizing that their adoption is going to be harder than they thought.
Athelas by
astolat [Thor/Avengers, Thor/Loki, NC-17, 19.324 words]
There was a sharp and bitter edge crept into the words, a reminder that not all was well: that Thor still had a brother, but not a friend.
Slipping from Skin to Skin by
entangled_now [Thor, Thor/Loki, NC-17, 2.480 words]
Loki has never been afraid to change his skin.
· Watched a vid:
Feel it in My Bones by
greensilver [The Vampire Diaries, Damon/Stefan/Elena]
· Washed a small mountain of dishes (it's definitely canning season).
· And seriously considered making an actual proper rec post, but I think I'm just gonna go collapse instead, mmkay?
