12/31: with Chris
...baking pecan sandies, making a kind-of pizza with a no-yeast dough, and reading aloud The Dangerous Journey by Tove Jansson.
12/30: halving
...an egg. I had enough ricotta and citron to make one more stollen loaf (we've already finished two!), but the recipe is written for two loaves and calls for one egg. I used a vegan egg replacer, which made it easy to halve.
12/29: reading
...Arboreality by Rebecca Campbell. The third story--"An Important Failure"--made me cry.
12/28: reading book reviews
In the static of the semester I stopped reading the NYTBR each week, so I have a bunch of them stacked up. It makes me feel like me to be reading them again.
12/27: taking advantage
...of a non-rainy morning to go to Woolly Hollow.
...of a quiet afternoon to finish A Rome of One's Own by Emma Southon.
...of an evening which 3 friends had off to play Yahtzee via conference call and a dice-rolling website.
12/26: sipping a shirley temple
...(kind of), at lunchtime, using a sparkling grapefruit mixer as the base.
12/25: a variety
...of quiet good things. Eating stollen, seeing bluebirds, taking a walk, collaging with Chris, making some donations, drinking wassail gifted by a neighbor, texting with family, reading a NYTBR and a novel, enjoying the company of the cats, generally relaxing, and not feeling like I had to do anything in particular.
