Still Not Useless!
Someday I will learn how to use the bread machine to the point where the top of my loaves doesn't always collapse. Alas, today is not that day. Oh well. The bread I made still tastes damn good, even if it isn't pretty, and it's not like anyone will see it but me. I got sick of making the same three recipes out of the book that came with the machine, so I dipped into the pool of the internet to find some new ones that could be made with my dad's rather limited baking supplies. Ended up with buttermilk bread - simple and easy but so tender and delicious when it finished. I can't believe my dad the ex-chef didn't know that you can improvise buttermilk with regular milk and vinegar. I guess that's why my mom is the baker of the family.
Tomorrow I have an orientation/workshop thing for that jobs thing through the city. I am betting that at least half the people there (presuming people other than me show up because that would be just my luck) are going to be idiot teenagers, and hopefully I will be able to keep from killing anyone for two hours. There may be job interviews afterwards. I sure hope so. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
If I could justify the expense, I would totally buy one of these pony scrub caps. I don't even know what I would wear it for (I suspect it would be useful if I was running or riding a lot or working outside or something), but they are just so cute! I love the geta pattern, and the sushi, and the Japanese calligraphy, and the cupcakes. It's going on my list of hair things I would buy if I weren't poor, along with the ficcare clips and the nice Nightblooming hairsticks.
