#dunnettcontent #dunnett Strong implications from JdeR that K is also trying to have N killed, which makes sense, but sheesh. 😒

#dunnettcontent #dunnett G has gone to try to call off S, and there’s a lot of tension about H, and S has gone utterly nuts, and JdeR has intervened, and these people are not well and need a time out.

It couldn’t be easier, and it’s just amazing. You can make it in a toaster oven if you have one big enough, too. You’re welcome! Cheryl Day is a treasure.

I just couldn’t deal with the whirlpool. I was trying to stay informed but it’s doing more harm than good. Thanks for the support.

I was trying to get at least some news. But I can’t cope and I was spiraling.

I’m planning Rube Goldberg for Doria though. If a rock rolls down the wall, and Astorre hits it with a knife, and then it bounces off the emperor’s crown and hits C’s earrings and plugs Doria in the skull does that count as murder?

Possums should not be so compelling but they are. I love them.

And I deserve it. I have earned that ridicule.

Almond extract, if using almonds. Melt butter, let cool a bit. Oven to 350/175. Butter a 9” cake pan, line with parchment. Dust with flour. Toast almonds (or alternate nut). Whisk flour, sugar, leaveners, salt, and 1/2c nuts together. Separately, combine butter, buttermilk, eggs, extracts 2/x

Fold wet mixture into dry mixture. Pour into pan, sprinkle with remaining nuts. Bake for 45-50m. Notes: you can do this with any nut or no nuts.

I will take a reduction right now. It’s better than nothing.

Too much. Just too much. Breathing.

Ok, muting most political terms for now: not handling this all very well and anxiety spiking. Be well out there.

The reason I have not made an Inverness cape is that I would want to do it with the wool tweed etc and that stuff is spendy. It would be a great project though.
