"My dad tried to sell me to some Armenians once. Does that count?"

A couple of Whedony things to share, both of which have probably appeared on people's flists before now, but if they haven't:

Sugar Shock
Part One :: Part Two :: Part Three
Joss Whedon online comic story. It's ace.

Firefly and Serenity: Defying Gravity
This is genius. Sheer genius.

Compote is already done. Huh. Go rhubarb, with your acidic insides.

Katie has just informed me of *another* thing starting on ITV. Seriously, darlings, what's going on here? Where's the good TV coming from and why is it all on ITV? This is playing with my conception of the universe. And you know I get cross when that happens.

"Maybe it's the syphilis talking, but... some of that made sense."

Had a pleasantly domestic day. Woke up late. Pottered around, had a shower, faffed a bit. Made another batch of compote (apples and berries) and Katie made mackerel pate, and we congratulated ourselves on being all making-things. We did some sorting in the Spare Oom (well, Katie did, I mostly stood around and went um). Watched Rapunzel, which was vee entertaining. Made spag bol and garlic bread, and now watching Primeval (huzzah!). Tomorrow I plan to go to Richmond to see about material, make the apple and pear compote, and maybe shove some stuff on eBay.
