All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
aurelia, have you really had that conversation? I hate them and really hope they don't exist except in fiction. Perhaps because it's so obvious.
Not verbatim, but close enough. It's obvious to the observer, sure, but when you're in it and doing the whole 2nd guessing thing and you have two people who don't really talk about emotions and stuff... well, it happens.

I have not yet found my caramel ceiling.
Mine was blessedly short-lived.
Which is good, because I'd made two pounds of the stuff, and you know, that's really a lot of caramel once it's all chopped and wrapped.
Given that I'm totally capable of demolishing a jar of dulche de leche by myself, I was a little shocked to discover I had a limit.

Not too ambitious per se, but definitely too busy. There was a time when you could've finished it quickly, when you weren't juggling a gazillion different things at once. Not the end of the world. :-) I finished my diagonal scarf this morning, and I'm a quarter of the way through another blanket. Gotta figure out what project(s) I want to work on during the holiday weekend!
ETA: I've never had a jar of dulce de leche; I thought it was just something they made cheesecakes out of at the Cheesecake Factory.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
It was the moustache, right?
