January 1, 2010 Progress Notes:

"When Your Number Isn't Up"

Words today: 250.
Words total: 2850.
Reason for stopping: It was a fully athletic crawl to the finish line.

Darling du Jour: He saw afterimages: a faded blue silk dress, rucked up at the knees; the ambulance men's boots on the streaked wood floor; an ankle, thin and white.

Mean Things: Nothing we hadn't already done.
Research Roundup: Cost for a pay phone call in 1949; paramedic uniforms.

Books in progress: Dashiell Hammett, The Thin Man.
The glamour: Slept late, as is the custom of this household on New Year's Day, and spent most of it futzing around, cooking a bit, and doing OWW stuff. There is beautiful, beautiful snow on the ground.


I finally cracked open the bread machine I bought in *cough* this evening. And oh my lord, I am so glad I did:



My first loaf of Robot Bread is apple blossom honey and wheat, and I have already had two fat slices of it. It is breathtakingly freaking delicious, and even rising, it smelled so good I was almost driven mad. My whole apartment smells lingeringly like honey right now.

The way I know my life is awesome is that tomorrow morning, I will get to wake up and make French toast out of it. With butter and maple syrup. Mwah hah hah hah hah.

Goodnight, internet.

Ooh. I am jealous of your breakfast, even though my breakfast for tomorrow will include home-made bread. But not french toast.

When you get home I can deliver unto you a Robot Bread to make french toast out of, then?

Thanks! I did the simplest one for the test loaf -- I suspect things might get a little trickier once I start messing around with it more.
