... and when we think it can't be any worse, we learn that yes, it can. It seems that we'll have to start the new statistical system (elektronisches Klassenbuch for the ones who speak German) a month earlier. Joy, joy, joy. Of course, Boss Woman explained that it would be for our own good, and perhaps it is true. The problem is, nobody really believes that anything under her rule would be truly for our own good.

Ah, well, since I'm doing the same nothing every sodding afternoon, it won't be too complicated to copy and paste the same exactly 4 sentences from one e-class book to the other one. Being a rightless slave does have its advantages sometimes. And I'm leaving in two and a half months' time, so there.

On a more cheerful note, I made some headway with both the Christmas-themed pocket letter and the needle books. I hope I'll finish everything just in time. And tonight: Red Velvet Cake! *fingers crossed*

Good luck for the cake.
I'll make an apple cake/pie tomorrow - we've got so many apples from our garden, so it will be apple for the next few weeks (months)!

I know the feeling! We get lots of apples at school - this is some sort of fruit programme or whatnot - and the kiddies never eat it all, so we can take home the rest. Mum's been cooking apple soup in one go for the last two weeks or so. Fortunately, we both love apples, but her teeth can't deal with them raw, so it's cooked or baked.

The cake is in the oven right now, I hope it will turn out well. Never made this one before.
