Dreamt of getting conned into fighting aliens

[infryq]

Yesterday I canned the last of the strawberry-blueberry-rhubarb jam, adding some ground cardamom and black pepper for variety. I intended to make some candied lemon peel, but forgot about it on the stove and made carbon instead 😢

I made another strap for P’s bike bag, and gummed up the iron. I suspect this set of canvas is sized with glue. Cleaned up with baking soda and a wet rag while the iron was hot but unplugged.

Lunch, put the kitchen towels and washcloths through the laundry and hung the former out on the line. Spent the rest of the afternoon watching historical sewing YouTube, finishing the patch on monster, and working on the hem of the burgundy floral.

Got the wash off the line before the thunderstorm started, then P got home while I was in the shower. Dinner, crossword, finished Blown Away, snack, sleep. I finished Book of a Thousand Days, which wrapped up pleasantly if slightly saccharine. Started Storm and Fury by Jennifer Armentrout.
