Another piece of kitchen equipment from my first year of being married. That 8 inch square baking pan. I made cakes and corn bread in it. And anything else that needed baking. Nothing else in the picture is more than 10 years old. Glass breaks.
Today I was baking another pan of cornbread from the recipe I got at the Grist Mill in Illinois on a school field trip. Gifted Third Grade. Rough bunch. They thought they knew everything--and usually they were correct. And the recipe was fantastic as was the corn meal.
My daughter was back--to have more cobalt blue dye added to her hair. Last time we didn't get enough blue. This time I had her lay on the dining room floor (with my painting drop cloth under her head) while I painted the dye on the ends of her long hair. Then we set the timer and settled in to have a 75 minute chat. Riley was concerned. Hasn't ever seen someone on the floor. Wondered about it.
There's enough dye for one more try. I may just be too old to understand this new thing.
Tomorrow is the big game. Nachos. Perhaps alcoholic beverages.
Luckily the game starts later in the afternoon, so I can visit Goodwill for one dollar day.
Watched two episodes of the Alienist. Very odd. I was trying to guess which Roosevelt was Police Commissioner. I thought it was Theodore. Then someone walked past him and said T.R. as a greeting and I high fived myself. Teddy, it was. Very dark. Very dark. I can't imagine what life was like back in those days. And, of course, there is graphic everything from sex to murder to just plain disgusting stuff-- TNT. Good Behavior was like this. All the letters being used on the warnings. S.V.N.L. And then.....you can also choose the "explicit" version on Xfinity which all that-plus. I don't know if we will continue watching.
G started and finished his new series-book one. He loved it. Sue Harrison's series of three. I hurried to order book 2.
