All eight TWs and a bingo
Dec. 20th, 2020 06:54 amYesterday I made crackers. I am out of practice, so they weren’t that good, and I’m glad I only made a small batch. The trick will be figuring out how to hydrate the starches (lentils, cornmeal) while maintaining some amount of shortness. I split the batch in two and got one with a nice short texture but having hard crunchy bits, and the other more homogenous but tough and rubbery-stale-like.
I ordered more oats from a different local farm this time, and some wild rice from a tribal organization in Minnesota. Some of the wild rice will apparently be poppable, so looking forward to that.
I remade the mugwort and lavender incense with more lavender to see if I like the adjustment.
We did the crossword after lunch, and played a surprisingly effective game of scrabble after dinner (640 something board score?) in spite of crap tile draws and a densely packed early game. SG-1, snack, sleep. Dreamt of getting into ship engine design and steering control theory for racing.
Crown of Dragons continues, drawing together several loose threads from earlier books. Very satisfying.
