I never close the bathroom door. Comes from living alone for 8 years, and a bathroom door that had swelled so that it didn't shut easily.

I'm apparently a freak--I usually close the door if I'm showering. I have no idea why.
These days I also close my bedroom door before I go to sleep. Because I bought a clock to put in the bathroom and the second hand is SO LOUD. It's crazy.

Hmph. LJ and Gmail are both failing me.
I wish to report SOMEWHERE on the lavender jelly I made [link] Unusually for a recipe, and yes, I checked to make sure it was setting correctly, it made 6 half pint jars instead of 5. Tastes fairly good, and I'd suggest it with cheese on crackers. Next time (I have an ungodly amount of cooking lavender on hand--like, most of a pound of it), I think I'll double the amount of lavender in the tea and steep it slightly longer. My only modification this time was a dash of vanilla.
A+, would can with it again.
Note to all: do not put fingers in hot jelly to extract a dropped measuring cup. Just don't. I'm going to ice myself now.

Lavender jelly sounds interesting. I'm madly searching for a decent recipe for sweet potato pie.
In the fridge as I type is our 13 lb (it's so bitty!) turkey and some garnet yams are on the counter. sarameg is on the couch and I am exhausted.
Grace ended up going to a hospital this morning and she apparently has viral pneumonia. She's at UCLA's pediatric ICU again. Sigh.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I only close the door when i'm showering - to keep in the nice warmth! The rest of the flat is cooooooold in the morning. It's amazing how fascinated a cat can be with showering when he hates baths so very very much.

Kat, I'm so sorry Grace is sick and back in the ICU. I'm glad she's at UCLA, but I wish her road wasn't such a rocky one.

The status is NOT quo.
Kat, I'm so sorry. Health~ma to Gracie and coping~ma to you.
Plei, I had to leap to the end to say that those pictures of the Boo are unbelievably cute.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am so sorry, Kat. Health-ma to Grace.

Smoke alarms! I need some of those. What a timely, er, time for this to come up.
Health~ma to Grace, poor little noodle.
