I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Indubitably.

Cherries are awesome. I'd love that, though I don't think I've had it.

The bad news: I'm back to testing QA stuff.

The good news: As of Wednesday, I'm back on my own regular work duties, with a big, interesting project to work on.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Our new admin is getting the most presents. My boss even gave her a gift. She doesn't get her reports gifts.

Not that I want one. It's just weird.

Does clafouti taste eggy?

I'd bet the texture is too eggy for you, although I wouldn't say it tastes eggy.

It shouldn't taste eggy.

More than you ever wanted to know about clafouti

"According to Larousse Gastronomique, when the Académie Française defined clafoutis as a “sort of fruit flan”, inhabitants of Limoges—capital of the Limousin region—protested, forcing the institution to change the definition to the more acceptable “cake with black cherries”. Black cherries are the meatiest, juiciest, and sweetest of all cherries—and they’re left unpitted because the pits are thought to enhance the flavor of the batter with a perfume faintly reminiscent of almonds. Whole cherries are also less likely to bleed into the batter."

Does clafouti taste eggy?

Not in my experience, but I habitually cut the eggs in recipes and I haven't had any that was not made by me.

In other food news, I forgot that board meeting today means leftover food! So I'm having leftover breakfast for lunch (mini bagel, mini muffin, fruit salad), and I'm sure there will be leftover lunch later if I need a snack. Sweet.

I can deal with the texture, as long as there isn't that (to me) nasty sulphury 'rotten' egg taste.

I have discovered something annoying: there are lilies that smell, there are lilies that don't smell, and there are lilies that I can only smell when I'm pre-migraine. This is annoying because smelling lilies sends my migraine over the edge, stat.

This week I bought roses.
