Proper cooking pitfall: grating your own cheese makes snarfing on all the freshly grated cheese much less satisfying. Because you have to grate up more yourself to make up for the amount you snarfed, and it's a vicious circle.
Just keep walking, preacher-man.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Everyone remembers about setting the clocks forward, right?
Ugh, I'm so angry about that! It's already light well past 5pm, which is PLENTY LATE ENOUGH. I don't want to get up in the dark again.
And also I should go to bed now.

Because books.

Same. Sunset tonight was after 6, here, which seems fine! And it'll keep getting later.
The only clocks I have to manually set are the one in the car, the battery operated magnetic timer that sticks to the stove (and also tells time), and the binary one in the living room. Not too bad. Oh, and the timer that turns on the bathroom heater. Shoot, that would have been a bad one to forget, maybe I'll go change that one right now.

I admit to liking it a couple months in. I like not walking home in the dark. I'll hate it this week.

It was fine when it was the end of March, but the beginning is stupid.

The Lion in Winter is about an old king who has three sons and a young mistress. The queen is coming back for a holiday from being imprisoned (by her husband) Of the sons, one is scheming and smart, but no one likes him, one is strong and gay (and the mom's favorite) and one is dumb and spoiled rotten (and the dad's favorite). They all are scheming for the kingdom.

I never really thought of the parallels until you mentioned it, but it really does match up quite nicely. Also everyone should see the film version of The Lion in Winter with Katharine Hepburn and Peter O'Toole, as well as Anthony Hopkins in his first film.

Nice, Sophia. Why they are the Lyons, I'm sure.

Yes.
As I believe I have previously ranted.
