How can one not freak out about giant flying unspeakables?
The money was too good. I got stupid.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm watching "Lords and Ladles" on Netflix, a team of three chef going around great houses in Ireland, cooking old feasts with the old ingredients and techniques. They're wandering around the garden of one of the houses. A previous gardener had been using the cockpit covers of Harrier jets as tiny greenhouses. "Where did you get hold of those?" one of the chefs asked. The current gardener glanced casually away: "You don't ask those kinds of questions here in the border region."

Herding cats for fun
Ahhh! I am having so much fun watching Lords and Ladles! Mutton marinated in blood, game birds wrapped in bacon strips and a recipe for potato pie with way, way too much butter for the modern palate. Plus the gorgeous old mansions and gardens. Oh my.

I just finished the mutton one. The squeamish chef was amusing.

I am having trouble understanding the concept of "potato pie with too much butter". Perhaps I need to watch this show.

Too much butter does seem a foreign concept.
I'm up early to head to Tampa today. I'm exhausted at the thought of this.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'm having trouble with the concept of "potato pie." Unless they're thinking of a shepherd's pie, in which case, yes, please.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm still traumatized by the flying...let's say waterbug? I encountered in my friend's house 10+ years ago.
I am also confident that potatoes can handle any amount of butter you might throw at them, in any format.
I'm sorry your weekend was crappy, meara, and hope you have easy travel, Kat.
