The chocolate cheesecake I helped make (technically I mostly directed Nary's son in the baking thereof, but I took some parts on myself) was delicious, even if it did split while baking. I have had, let's say, more than one piece :p
We've also managed to recreate Abruzzi's version of a Sicillian Sour: small glass, 3 ice cubes, 1 oz amaretto, 1 oz limoncello, fill up the rest of the way with san pellegrino limonada and a wedge of lemon (squeezed). Damned delicious! Might also be nice with a splash of gin, I may need to investigate...

Watched the last episodes of Voltron with the family today. Bubby was a bit distressed about what happened to Shiro, but aren't we all? That's a damned good show, all in all, and I can't wait until the next season this September!

If all goes to plan, tonight will be my last night on this mattress. I'm so excited! Tomorrow I need to do laundry to ensure that I have clean sheets for the new one. Other than that, depending on when the mattress comes, I want to go out and buys some big plastic storage bins so I can rearrange some of my stuff in storage and, maybe, some of the stuff in my room.

I also had Thirteen today, which was the conclusion of a story arc and turned out pretty cool. Now we have some downtime and a chance to recover for a bit, which is nice - I need to think a bit about what my character will be doing with it. I also filled up a journal during game - now I have to decide what i'm going to start using next for game notes, hmmmmm

I feel like I had something else to say but now I forget what. Ahh well, it is unlikely that it was anything important!

That sounds like a super delicious cocktail. I like Frangelico + lemon juice, but almond sounds even nicer.

Happy new-bed-day! (Or should that be happy-new-bed-night?)

I don't know why, but lemon + almond hadn't occurred to me either, for a cocktail, even though it is a classic combination. So delicious! It really cuts the sweetness of the amaretto nicely.

And there is no way that the new mattress couldn't be an improvement over the old one - that thing was practically a torture device! This one is very comfy to lie on, at least :D

I love it so much! I thought they did a magnificent job at balancing the super serious with the super silly - they really pulled that off super well, especially in Season 2 :3
