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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Smoke alarms! I need some of those. What a timely, er, time for this to come up.

Health~ma to Grace, poor little noodle.

Kat, this one looks good [link]

It's from Patti LaBelle, and her stuff is usually good.

There's also this one, from Tanya Holland [link]

OH! Vortex, thank you!

Conversational gambits I love:

"Bless her heart."

"She's a piece of work!"

no prob. I've been scared to attempt sweet potato pie, since my grandmother's was so amazing, but I think about it occasionally :)
