chocolatepotHave you ever checked out the Amazon Explore page? Lawks a mercy, it's like being in The Sims except if you want the ยง1000 bookcase to fit with your Neo-Victorian decor you can't just type klapaucious or rosebud. But it really has the perfect mixture of genuinely cool stuff, poorly color-shifted furniture, and total bullshit to give you a sort of uncanny valley feeling.
All in all, I had a lovely birthday weekend! Lots of arranging and such - put up a few more hooks (one next to the door for keys, SO CLEVER), glued the foot back on my electric sewing machine's case went through my stash and measured everything. I moved my sewing desk (it's my step-mother's - I brought it with me to put my sewing machine on but then since I got the treadle I haven't needed it and have just been putting stuff on it) into the living room for the plants and turned the couch, and it's like a whole new apartment. So much more open space, everything is lovely and clean and I'm very happy with it and determinedly not thinking about how I have to give a lecture on Saturday, ha ha ha HA HA.
I bought myself the Gothic to Goth: Romantic Era Fashion & Its Legacy catalogue, which someone on FB was kind enough to point out was going OOP. It came today, and it's excellent! And I made a half batch of this focaccia, which turned out very well. (I've been watching the first series of GBBO and wanting to bake.)
