now

Today is almost over and that’s good because it will force me to be brief.

I wanted to make a Mexican flan for the person I shared Christmas dinner with because it was her birthday now and she still has no one to say hooray. I often cooked flan years ago, easy and delicious. l almost did it for Christmas dessert and i’s a good thing I didn’t because it isn’t easy any more.

I won’t go into detail. I’m not the person I was. And I was in a different kitchen with different, fewer appropriate tools, and this cook has less energy. Other factors played into my disaster but that’s enough. So it took me all day to make the flan and it wasn’t very good, and I had a total MESS to clean up, plus cooking for her dinner and the next day for Matt’s birthday and I— ran out of time.

I’m still tired.

But i’m ready to put together my Catablog.

Tomorrow.
