ION, the bone broth I made turned into a gelatin in the fridge.
That's how you know it's good broth!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Eat it with a spoon, Jilli! That's the dream!
Another good run! Pace a little faster, distance a little further. I have found a good route that is easy to extend, even.
ETA: the sauce from the pot roast also gelled up nicely. I'm going to heat it up, though having a cold carnivorous jello salad is appealing (gelled sauce studded with bits of goat and carrot, basically)

Pete ended up heating the broth gel so he could whisk an egg into it for me. It was very tasty!

BTW, Jilli, if you need soft foods for a while, I recommend making custard out of broth. It's easy, tastes good cold, and packs a little more protein than straight broth.

I think making custard out of the broth is beyond Pete's cooking skills, and I know I'm not up to doing it right now. But I'll keep that in mind, because it sounds yummy.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Boy, I am sure glad I left my house at 8pm to get here for an 8:45 rehearsal that the director decided to start late. The concert will be great, but this guy is an asshole.

the Mary Stewarts, and I'm not revisiting them so my memories of them stay rosey. I don't want to know if they're awful by today's standards.
They're not. At least, I don't think so. I suppose there's some issues with man/woman relationships and British superiority, but I've been pleased with the ones I've re-read. I was pleased to discover that Airs Above The Ground is just as good as I remembered.

Speaking of the Suck Fairy, I'm saddened by how poorly a lot of Andre Norton has aged. They're just... thin, by comparison with modern YA. No characterization to speak of, really. The plots are good, and the world-building, but the characters are 2D if you're lucky.
I had maple-roasted brussel sprouts and a piece of grilled salmon for dinner. The sprouts were way better than the salmon, I must admit.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
That sounds so good, Consuela. Yum! I've been trying to eat a bit better. Yesterday I made tofu and beet greens, and today I braised cabbage, leeks and fennel and ate it over quinoa.
