That would be nice, Carinthia. I may stumble upon the stairs, but I know that you’ll set me right. Good night, Dearie.

Hurrah for a pished Bee, and muted hooting for Carinthia’s confused wee scrap.
“Happy Wednesday to you” etc… I do hope you did that.

I am having a Nightcap, all on me own recognisance. It’s a Bailey’s knock-off, Cinnamon & Vanilla (yes, I know, but it was a very kind gift) and do you know what? It’s not half bad. Rather soothing, in fact. Although it is the sort of flavour that might tempt Children to Drink, and we can’t have that. I mean, what would the rest of us do? There could be Shortages. < shudder >

I suspect kids mostly drink sweet stuff and leave the more interesting flavours for me. (If they know what’s good for them.)

Why am I awake?

Oh well. Early

Or late…

PS—if you want definitely-not-sweet, we discovered a bottle of Enzian-Schnapps at the back of the cupboard…

Also ‘late’ here. Since I wasn’t sleeping I marzipanned and ‘iced’ me cake (a circle of fondant dumped on the top counts as ‘icing’, I feel, given the hour of the morning and all) and I have just had a tiny slice for breakfast. S’not bad.
As a breakfast habit it would be, though; very.

So, the party at joe’s: how did it go? Anyone decide to wear one of the beautiful chickens as a hat?And is there any chilli left?

Happy New Year to one, and possibly also all, though I will need to think carefully about the latter because, well, some people…

I think I can safely say all here.

New mattress for the new year is very successful; it doesn’t have great gullies in it for me to fall down, nor yet a rift valley in the middle. Which is good.

Hurrah for the mattress!
