karmicdragonflySpent new years at a friend's house last night...and today I have been productive.
One of my goals for New Year's Day is to get the tree taken down.
Typical clean-up of -- needles everywhere!
Started a book in its original Portuguese. So far so good -- the writing style is at my level -- although, of course, I have to look up unfamiliar words, like 'saddlebag' and 'staff' -- not words I use every day!
And yesterday, started a batch of vanilla extract. It'll be ready in a couple months. I guess for just pure extract, I should use strictly vodka, but I tend to mix up the alcohol. I also should use cheap alcohol when making extract...but I used what I had on hand!
