me (~)
Been hit by oddly apathetic and/or cunning flu. It raged a bit overnight and ~1 hour after waking up; now it's just feebly scratching at my throat. Either way, gives me an excuse to put off a dental cleaning, so I'll take it.
Everything else is meh. Deliberately keeping the fuck away from several disputes, including my own. Progress on Parallax-Red is slow & steady. Peggy remains my emotional MVP, somehow. :) Watching lots of sitcoms. Feeling detached & draconic. Want mac & cheese, cake.

@zebratron2084 I have a recipe for tuna noodle casserole that's remarkably similar to a mac & cheese cake, and now I'm thinking of making that--although I really should prep ingredients for stoup before they go off.
this weather is very conducive to meh, isn't it? I prefer rain and all that, but even I can feel it. Spouse is back at work, though, so at least I can start Getting Stuff Done again...

@green @zebratron2084 I've been making large batches of food for the sensory experience in the grey days and the convenience of having something to eat I don't have to think about.
food omg
@zebratron2084 @eredien that's why you don't make the food while in a mood like this, you make the food while in a balanced, reasonably *good* mood, and save it in the freezer or something. I've been applying this principle (sub "busy":"mood") with the slow cooker and OMG IT WORKS SO WELL. on a whim I got some apples and used the slow cooker to make an... apple pie-like ice cream topping, and I've been eating leftovers of that, and it's FANTASTIC. next: stoup! :D
food omg
@eredien @zebratron2084 I don't have a rice cooker--I just make it on the stove, but I've been making it for so long I've gotten *really good* at it--basmati rice, anyway; I've given up on calrose. :P
food omg
@green @zebratron2084 I used to not have a rice cooker. Then a friend bought one for me after the sixth time I burned rice on the stove.
food omg
@zebratron2084 @green I don't know what I'd do without my slow cooker and rice cooker.
