Took Finn to the groomer

Agreed that he probably didn't need to be shaved down anywhere but his face, so she just washed him and gave him a blow dry. Now he looks like a marshmallow.

Will update list of doom prompts after I get back from the supermarket, and then move on to what, upon reflection, was the obvious path from the start - putting it in a google doc.

Life goes on, even though we are living in the WORST timeline.

(Well, other than the ones where we're all radioactive sludge. Though at least if we were in that timeline we wouldn't be around to care....)

I made chicken jahlfrezi for dinner and cauliflower and of course rice. It is delicious though perhaps a bit undersalted. The recipe called for mace, which you don't see called for very often nowadays. I have mace, and so didn't have to sub in nutmeg. (I also have nutmeg, obviously.) How much of a hassle is it to grind mace blades, do you think? I usually don't want to bother with the nuisance of grating nutmeg, but if mace is easier to handle it would of course be better to have whole mace rather than ground, especially as I use it so infrequently. Of course, what I really need to do one day is find and print out a conversion chart between whole and pre-ground spices. Recipes never give me a really good clue as to how much whole I need to grind to get the same amount.

Also, I really need some bigger skillets. Do not let me forget this.
