todayiamadaisyThe Sunday paper's supplement magazine has a what's hot/what's not list every week. What's hot this week? Achachas. I wrote about how good they are two years ago! I am so ahead of the curve. Their new popularity may explain why I haven't been able to find any this year.
I had to buy a new can opener today. The old one fell apart last night; just sort of collapsed, right in the middle of opening a tin of salmon for Lord Cat. So that was quite distressing, at least for the one of us that had to eat dry cat food for dinner. Anyway, while I was in the kitchen shop, I saw this thing, a little skewer with a tiny plastic roast chicken on it. The idea is, you poke it into your roast chicken, and when the real chicken is cooked, the plastic chicken's legs pop up. So that's fun.
It must be praying mantis season. I've found three in the house so far today.
