Well, that was a bit of not-fun
So, I flashed my panties at Walmart yesterday.
What happened was this, more or less:
paidiraiompair and I had walked the length and breadth of Walmart. We were there - oh sweet baby Jesus, I just looked it up, and we were there for 1.5 hrs. No wonder we were both dead tired and hurting like hell. Foolishness ( Read more... ) -
just stuff
In April of last year, we had to euthanize Chaucer. We took him to the vet bc it looked like there was a bit of blood in his eye. I pay very close attention to my dogs. If someone has a tiny bump on their belly, I spot it. An angry eye I spot it and then it becomes blood in the eye. Their teeth were abominable and that's my fault. There were a few ( Read more... ) -
The Big 5-0
I'm going to be fifty in two weeks. I was ready for my 30s and 40s, got myself all excited for them, but this is different. Maybe because everything seemed to change in 2020. I didn't really think about my 50s. Too many other things to think about, when I wasn't on autopilot, that is. I feel like I've spent an awful lot of time running on autopilot ( Read more... ) -
A repost: Sorbet Ispahan
Talking with amused_bouche earlier this evening, I was reminded of this sorbet that I've never yet had a chance to try. I thought the recipe was somewhere on my computer and started to panic a bit when I couldn't find it. That's because I'd posted it on LJ and had never saved it to my laptop. That has now been remedied - in several places and formats. The ( Read more... ) -

The dyeing's done did
So, Sunday afternoon, I ate and played around on the computer, then took a little nap. It was, like, 6:00 before I sat down and started dividing my hair into theoretically manageable units for the dyeing. I was having a very hard time with the whole process. I just couldn't make all the things work quite right, but Lovelace came to my rescue and ( Read more... ) -
New and improved plan
Get dyeing station set up. Realise you're feeling bad. Fix actual food and eat it. Feeling overheated? Take some layers off, turn on the fan, and drink ice cold apple juice. If this helps, time to dye! If this doesn't help, wait till Lovelace's next appointment is over and it doesn't have to be 73°F in the house anymore. Eat another snack and then ( Read more... ) -
Adventures in hair dyeing
Alrighty. I have a bottle of blue hair dye and a bottle of pink. I also have a bottle of French cider. Time to find out what happens when all of these combine in various ways. Hopefully, I will end up as a purple-haired hussy. Two of these things are relatively unknown to me, so wish me luck!

(Untitled)
I went to the doctor today for a follow-up to my previous follow-up. I've been going to physical therapy once or twice a week for a month now, and have been very good about doing the homework given me by Chris the Physical Therapist. I'm building up a nice bit of muscle underneath my padding, which makes me happy ( Read more... ) -
Saag Paneer, Part II - the rest
When I make this with kale, I cut off the tough stems and toss them in the compost. Also, I find that kale takes longer to wilt ( Read more... )
