That sounds like an odd combo, t.

Good luck, meara. Once you get through today tomorrow should be a piece of cake, at least?

Yes, in theory! One good thing about my job is that malt of what I do has firm deadlines. I can't really procrastinate while I'm a a site location working, and my reports are due one week after. So last night I finally at about 730pm managed to sit down and write up the awful visit from last week--I had to have it completed by 9pm or it would be late! The few things that don't have firm deadlines or aren't easily checked up on are the ones that tend to slip.

I need to remember to pick up a vanilla bean, a banana, and some razor blades.

Did you get hired by Chopped?

Yes, tommyrot, one magical vanilla bean. I'm gonna miss that cow, too.

Cutthroat Kitchen

Nice. We could very well sponsor one or both of those...

Well, the razor blade goes with the vanilla. Are you making something banana-vanilla bean?

I am. It's a chia seed and coconut milk "pudding" (it's more of a custard, I'd say, but thqat's not what thte recipe calls it) with banana and vanilla. I tried making one that had no extra flavouring and it was super bland - which is good to know for those occasions when I need bland, but not to be my new go to quick and easy breakfast.

The razor blades are just because I have run out. But I can't get them at Trader Joe's so I have to remember they are on the list when I am deciding where to shop.

Megaflora is cool, megafauna still creeps me out, but meganeura is giving it a run for its money: [link]

That doesn't look real enough to creep me out. Maybe if it was an animated gif where it was flapping its wings and trying to get away....

Once an insect gets large enough, I'm not nearly as scared of it. Not that I'd touch it involuntarily (I have let a giant cockroach run over my hand) and keep a safe distance, but I'm fascinated by them.
