... have been horrendously distracted by Puzzles and are up past bed-time.
Reading. Slooow ongoing progress with Otherlands, interrupted by frequent forays to The Internet to look things up. Fact of the day: feathers can weigh 2-3 times as much as the skeleton of a bird.
Writing. ... I have not Essayed Poetry, but I have written another few paragraphs of the introduction to The Book, and also convinced myself I do actually also want to write the Emotional Pain Is Real Pain essay as a separate standalone hook.
Playing. Pyramid of the Sun: completed; mildly disappointed. Clementoni x Science Museum 'Space' (link is to a review on Reddit, which includes the finished picture, which I am going to attempt to forget again): about halfway through (the easy half, naturally), and delightfully have worked out how to make it Fun For Adams.
Cooking. ... little of note.
Eating. Forgot to mention last time: fake smoked salmon (mostly A), which had been discounted. It was An Experience that I will happily not repeat.
So much cake. So much cake. Cake quantity increased by acquiring cut-price stollen. (Alas everywhere seems to have managed their panettone stock levels better this year.)
Observing. Snow! A very little!
