There is insufficient glee among the flist today. :(
Therefore, Five Things That Are Making Me Gleeful Today:
1)
Apple Crisp
5 cups peeled and sliced baking apples
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup flour
1 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick butter, cut into small pieces
Butter baking dish, spread apples in it, and sprinkle 1/3 cup water on top. Combine oats, flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Rub in butter with your fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs. Spread over apples. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until browned.
2) Dogs! They are glee personified (caninified?) and I have FOUR of them. Laika is right up in my face at the moment, trying to convince me with her big brown eyes that she NEEDS A CHEWIE RIGHT NOW OR THE WORLD MIGHT END OR SOMETHING.
3) Wine. Red, of course. (I'm really not sure if the non-red stuff qualifies as wine at all.) I have my heart set on doing some sort of Australian winery tour within the next few years.
4) Rain. We've been having a rainy autumn, but you won't hear me bitching about it. We have a metal roof and the sound of the rain hitting it puts me right to sleep at night. No insomnia for once!
5) BSG is good again. Really, really good! And it's almost Friday!
