Made a faboo carbonara-esqe dish with squash, peppers and bacon. My cheese sauce curdled but meh, it tasted good. I was able to get almost all of the dishes done before dinner and that made the evening good. I still took an hour to relax after Benton went to bed just to relax...I just had been going strong all day needed the recovery period. Got to cutting out the baroness lining and then went and pinned up every seam I was finishing on the yukata to sew those today. I'm not finishing every seam completely. Its an undergarment and its cotton and already serged I may put in some tack stitches to keep layers in place but meh, its not museum work, its a costume, my laurel tendancies can shove it. I finished up the hem pinning just as mel got home from Utah. He was tired and got a beer and we both dinked around on our phone while watching Dirty Jobs...gods I love that show..why did they stop making it?

Headed to shower and bed just after 1030 and then read for a bit.

If you want some hot pr0n reading in the Mystrade universe then go read Anthea's Assignments. Holy heck. (fans self)
