Mar. 2nd, 2023 08:45 amSized up the 1868 corset pattern yesterday while at work. It was nice, very zen to do when there are no other pressing matters to distract me. At home there's always something to clean or dinner to make or a cat demanding attention.
I meant to sneak in a yard of fabric to work today to cut out a mockup during downtime, but I was so tired this morning that I forgot. I meant to get to bed early last night, but M had napped right when we got home and was waking up just as I was meaning to get to bed, so we ended up talking about food which turned into a whole thing - I told him that I was growing a bit tired of our usual rotation of recipes, and he had a weird freak out thinking that it meant I wanted to scrap every recipe that we had and start over which...no...I just want to add some new stuff to the repertoire. So we talked through it, he finally realized that I just want to add a couple of new soups to the cookbook, damn, and then I finally got to bed at around 11:30. ~sigh~ One of these days I'll get to bed at a decent time. Ideally, I'd like to get to sleep at 10 and wake up at 6, but as it is I usually fall asleep around midnight and struggle to wake up at 7. -_-
Anyway, the pork soup was awful. That meat was just too freezer burnt to salvage, which is a shame because the broth turned out really lovely. I'm thinking of just scooping out the pork and adding some other meat to the pot instead. M wants to just dump the whole pot, which seems like a waste.
Bad storms predicted tonight. Possible hail and tornadoes. Fingers crossed we don't get walloped too badly.
