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

You weren't ready for the jelly, Liese?

I'm baking (hopefully) a peach coffeecake. I used an applesauce cake recipe, but used the stewed peaches. We'll see. It's still too wet now. Smells great!

Happy birthday, Perkins!

If my laundry gets done in time, will meet my neighbors for dinner at Joe Squared. I'm not up for a gig that starts at midnight, but dinner I can do.

In ridiculous news, swam even faster tonight, but a full 45 seconds. Down to a 55.1 pace, so 66m8s for 2 miles. CRAZY.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Happy birthday Perkins!

Also wanted to say that cake sounds delicious, sarameg. Makes me want to bake.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just ate too much quinoa salad. I had like 1.5 servings left, so ate it all. I should have made it two small servings. Ah well. Quinoa babies.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Horrible flight, 3 1/2 hours late. I suppose I was due...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Sheesh Tom, that's no fun.

I was just indecisive, which one cannot afford to be with jelly. I ended up making two separate batches, each with its own kind of pectin. And then I was going to do water bath and it was taking too long so I took the water out to do pressure canning, and then it took too long for the dishwasher so I put the water back in. Yeah. But it's done now.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

One of the buildings at the end of my block is having a party that is so loud it sounds like there is someone standing in my living room with a boom box. I know there are certain compromises one makes when one chooses to live in the city, but SERIOUSLY TURN IT THE FUCK DOWN.

Our wings are not tired.

Horrible flight, 3 1/2 hours late. I suppose I was due...

And yet, I bet it was still a better day than last Saturday~!Of course last Saturday did end on a nice note, checking out that cool new Vietnamese place Miss Walker found. But still, most of that day sucked.

I am HOME! And my Wigglebutts are BACK! Still a lot of repairs to do, so I'll be camping out on my couch and living out of luggage but STILL. My backyard! My kitchen! My dogs!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Just made super cheesy risotto with broccoli. It was good.

But not as good as Perkins' bday dinner last night!
