Peapod has come, and Sam has cooked. Hurrah! While I was waiting I cleaned, oh my god did I clean, and I also made a half-gallon of berry iced tea. Next up, macaroni and cheese, and some challah.

Just one question:

How do you actually serve pickled mushrooms? Straight? On sandwiches? With little cheese cubes? Could I put them in the mac and cheese? I just made them because it sounded fun and like it would smell really amazing (it did).

And this is in the oven as we speak:

SHHH.

I turned on the air conditioning.

JUST FOR A LITTLE WHILE!

Nobody tell R, okay?

I did end up making a loaf of challah, but the mac and cheese has been put on hold until the temperature drops enough that my brain isn't baking inside my skull. Which may, you know, be in October.

Aside from the cooking I also did a dishwasher's worth of dishes and two loads of laundry, rotated my mattress (whee!), finished five fanfics, and filed all the paper sitting on the kitchen counter. I worked on a sixth fic, too -- I'm spinning Nicholas off into Who with The TARDIS House Rules, and I just finished the coda for the last episode. I think after tonight's episode I'll have enough to make a decent post of that one.

It's Saturday night, so it must be time for Sam's Three Things About Doctor Who...

Spoilers for 4.08: ( Silence in the Library )

3a. Nicholas has a degree in library sciences. *rubs hands* this is going to be awesome.
