desperanceThe subject line comes to you courtesy of m'wife, to whom all complaints should be addressed. *nods*
But it is true! I went to the store and got wet! Because rain!
For the second time this week, rain fell. On Monday we had an all-nighter, serious heavy downpipe-pinging stuff, and I mostly lay awake listening to it. Today is quieter, but the ground's getting a happy soaking. And this is not El Nino, that bad boy is still a month away; this is just regular rainy-season rain. First since February, yay.
And meanwhile, I have never been to the store before to buy potato peelings. Still on the potato, but nevertheless. The point is the peelings. Growing bored with my own cries of "I need a new omelette pan!", I ordered one. This is my first carbon steel skillet; I love my cast-iron pans so much, it seemed likely that I would love this too. Especially as the seasoning instructions as posted begin "Fill your new pan with potato peelings, top up with water and boil for fifteen minutes." Okey-doke, then. Doing that.
