The taming of Louise

wiseheartTonight there was a thunderstorm with lots of rain, and it was still raining a little in the morning. The air is horribly damp. At least the skies have cleared up by the late afternoon, so I risked to take Louise to my friend Erna at school. We studied the user's manual for a while and re-did the threading; apparently, I had made a mistake with that previously. So, Louise was intimidated into cooperation - now if only I could learn the high art of sewing in a straight line! (Fat chance of that!)
On my way home it started raining again. Fortunately, I had mistrusted the weather and packed Louise in several layers of plastic, so nothing bad happened to her. I did a bit more sewing (by hand), then collapsed on the bed, reading fanfic and playing Solitaire. We ate leftovers, but tomorrow there will be proper cooking. I bought mushrooms on the way home, so it will be a hobbity meal:
Not really a surprise; I usually cook this when there are mushrooms available, only with chicken breast instead of pork. Partly because we prefer chicken and partly because mushrooms are so unreasonably expensive that I only ever buy a few of them - six, as a rule. But from six mushrooms and half a chicken breast I can make a dish that lasts for two days for us.
