... or at least 40% of me, which would explain why I don't match the pace and bustle of the world around me.
It almost made sense in the context of the conversation, really. Kitt and Rena suggesting that a silk-draped palanquin with muscled bearers to carry me around on sunny day was an image that resonated with their idea of me ... I'm not sure if that made sense in context either. But there was context! Really!
Today was yum cha and much entertaining conversation (after yum cha when we could hear each other talk!) and window shopping and starting my Christmas shopping, ahahagghh.
Also, I found some Vanilla Honey. The stall that sold the Butterscotch Honey I liked to use in my tea hasn't been at the markets for ages and I've never seen it anywhere else. But this Vanilla Honey is fabulous in tea (I don't like honey much usually. But this ...!)
And then I came home, nearly fell asleep on the sofa (which has changed position since Mum's in one of her redecorating moods. The living room is the Most Awkward Room Ever and we're still trying to get it right.) I think the next batch of lemon curd can wait another day. In the meantime, I'm browsing Etsy and panicking over shipping times and when I can afford all the things. But I think I have Mum's stocking mostly planned out.
