Water dreams
Last night I had a dream that the city was flooding. It rained and it rained, and the building I was in was surrounded by water up to the 2nd storey. The first storey windows began to leak, so we went upstairs. From the 2nd storey window, I could see the entire city, and most of it was covered in water. I could see the place where my house should be, and the neighbourhood was now a lake.
We didn’t try to save anyone, including ourselves. There was no panic, no worry, no action.
This all made sense at the time, but now I’m haunted, wondering where all the water came from, and how it overcame us so quickly.

Socks! Incomplete

I successfully turned the heel. Now I’m in the home stretch, which also happens to be the boring part. I may take a break from these for a while
Blood Orange Cranberry Muffins
I wanted comfort food.
I had bought 2lb of blood oranges as a rare citrus splurge.
I knew there was recipe for cranberry orange quick bread in the Joy of Cooking, but it was damn near impossible to find it in the new version. Quick breads are not in the index. It wasn’t under orange. There’s no muffins section.
I eventually found it hidden in the breads section.
Reaching out

I took a much needed day off and wandered around down town. The weather was very cooperative. Right after taking this, I decided to ride the streetcar home instead of the subway, and ended up walking 20 minutes when I just missed the bus. I didn’t mind.
No bread; no circus

This is the 2nd place where I used to take improv classes, that is now boarded up.
Socks in progress

Toe-up two at a time socks on magic loop. I have about an inch to go before I start increasing for the heel.
I’m roughly following this pattern that came with the yarn, but backwards.
