Thank you! I will soften it *one way or another* (all your methods, except for sarameg's, are too KIND) - I was terribly afraid I had wasted it.
My breakfast is saved.

Oh, no - well, perhaps enabling ME...against SUGAR...

I have a rubber mallet, named The Gremlin (long story), which has been used against sugar.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I swam 100 yds yesterday and I'm pretty pleased with myself.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Paging Plei: Do you have a receipe for plum jam? Without the canning thing?

Awesome! I just love being in the water. I hadn't forgotten it ( I would still wax eloquent on it) I just neglected it. I may not have a great technique, but I don't think I'm a deranged otter, either. It gets working right and it's.. well, flow. I've been reading Geography of Bliss and he goes on to describe this thing called flow, where the act and the actor are undifferentiated. And when I get it right, that's what swimming becomes. Or walking. Or racing screaming down a Bhutanese mountain or dancing the streets of Kathmandu. I'm just the movement and I like it.

Um, if it hadn't been almost 4 hours, I'd say I'm still high on endorphins....

I might be a deranged otter, but it still feels pretty good. I never had good technique, but once I've got some stamina built up I can work on that.
Flow, that's a good word. I can recognize it, but I can't pinpoint when I've felt it, what I was doing...

Good is good. All that counts.
