More happy things:
(I am just full of ups and downs this year. Also, I have a new rule that anything whingeful must be followed by something happy within a day or so.)
fish_echo is aces at well-timed packages of Happy! ♥ Besides a stash of tea and a cute knit bunny, she has also supplied me with (origami) ninja throwing stars!!! Be jealous. For, lo, I am a ninja!librarian. (But I have not yet decided whether to use my powers for good ... or for evil. Mwahaha... *cough*)
I made banana bread this afternoon and it is tasty. It is best fresh from the oven (so much NOM), but also good cooled (or slightly reheated). Yay! I am also contemplating making a chocolate banana cake this weekend or so. Does anyone have any other banana recipes? (Crazy Flatmate keeps buying bananas and then not eating them, which has resulted in a ridiculous amount of overripe bananas in the freezer. And, hey, I have time for baking and stuff now that I'm not stressed about school every minute of every day. I'm stressed about other things, of course, but not every minute of every day. Which is at least sort of win. \o/)
Ooh, and PBS now has a watch online feature, which is very exciting for people like me who do not own a TV! So I got to watch the first episode of the new Emma last night, and it is quite fun! :) I love Romola Garai's Emma, she's got the right amounts of impishness and cleverness and boredness.
