Civilisation is a fluffy pink dressing gown and fluffy grey slippers and clean, blow-dried hair. I have spoken.

Where can we live but days? 🇪🇺 she/her
Where at the point in the year when towels left on rails no longer dry naturally and the central heating doesn't come on because it's not cold enough yet.
Have just used google translate to send Christmas cake recipe to German friend. Read it through and it had translated 'currants', which are Korinthen, to Johannisbeeren, which are blackcurrants. Christmas cake made with a pound of blackcurrants would be . . . interesting.
Autumn comes to the cottages with carpets of apple rot that sour the air with vinegar tang. Comes in a dressing of the year not in green gowns, but wounded rags of brown. It comes as a fear of early darkness. A terror of hungry spirits that rush the path. – #DAKilory, 1982
Taxi did not turn up so Mr Moyes ran me down.

First thing that happened this morning was I came downstairs and trod in a catvom pile. #catpest
Someone in my timeline had a kitten called Poppy and I can't remember who it was. Who was it?
Request: Do you know of any oral history projects with relevance to covid-19? Context: I'm doing a mapping exercise for my new job at the @britishlibrary.bsky.social on covid commemoration. I have a pretty solid list but I know there are more out there! Please share!
Eugène Boudin, a local artist from Le Havre, urged 17 year-old Monet to swap caricatures for landscapes. Boudin taught Monet to chase light & color outdoors — lessons that shaped Impressionism. As Monet said, “A veil was torn from my eyes.”
It's that time of year when you start to hang on to useful-looking boxes instead of shoving them in the recycling. Also, in my case, anything new I need to buy, I look at it sideways and wonder if I could give myself it for Christmas.

#SneezyTowers is beginning to smell a lot like Christmas!
I located the brown paper (which was where I thought it would be but it had fallen behind the other rolls of paper). The Christmas Cake is in the oven! 45 minutes to do the lining of it, which is the most stressful Christmas job of all; 20 minutes for the rest. #ChristmasCake
Madame Decadent Sneezy-Bottom@darklyadapted.bsky.social · 2d agoI decided to make my Christmas cake this morning and it turns out that I have no brown paper so that's a refusal at the first. Now I have to go out and get some paper. Bummocks.

Dreamt I was on a bus full of teenagers and one of them was driving. They wouldn’t let me get off so I used the emergency button to open the door.  Not a relaxing sleep and woke up with a headache.
Wrong answers only. My bet: thanks for all the fish.

Ten minutes to #GBBO and I, for one, am looking forward to it. Is it bread week?
Have just consumed some Fevertree rhubarb and raspberry tonic (with gin, natch). Interesting. Let's say 'a valuable learning experience'.
Whats that Banksy? No its definitely not dogs.. they must be funny looking cats.. craftysharp.etsy.com/listing/4360... new pup lap mat available.. Just dont tell Banksy
The tradie has left for the day. I am going to Sainsbo's for chocolate and tonic (plenty of gin but short on tonic). Also, cheese.
