the_rckI made that rhubarb pie last night. I had extra rhubarb so I put it in. Unfortunately, I didn't think to add extra corn starch, so the pie filling is extremely liquid heavy. It's still tasty, tarter than the last pie I made which isn't a bad thing. I started making the pie after the cleaning lady left, and I had plenty of time to bake it before dinner, what with how late Scott was running.
Scott went to bed a little after eight because he was expecting to have to go in at 3 a.m. Fortunately, they turned out not to need him. They called at 11 to tell him that. I had just finished climbing into bed when the phone rang. They don't always call when they don't need him, just sometimes. That's why Scott always calls to check right when he gets up at 2. Sometimes, he's lucky, and he can just go back to sleep.
Cordelia, as has become her habit, stayed up until I went to bed. She went into her room a bit after 10, but her light didn't go out until nearly 11. She's still getting up about 8 every morning, so I guess 11 isn't too late for her. It's just frustrating for me and Scott. Our house is small enough that, as long as Cordelia is awake, we have no privacy. Scott and I need to be asleep as close to 11 as we can manage, so staying up even later isn't a good option (not to mention that Cordelia would likely just stay up later, too).
I kind of wish I was willing to just let a house plant die-- A couple of years ago, Cordelia brought a plant cutting home from science center camp. We planted it, and we've watered it regularly. It's grown quite a lot. It's one of those plants that grows out in a single direction, with a single runner. I've been winding it back around the pot, but that's getting to be impossible. I tried cutting it off to stop it growing, but it just sprouted a new runner from then next leaf back. I don't know what to do with the dratted thing.
Last night, I posted a chapter for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
weissvsaiyuki. Because it's a WIP, I'm not going to post it anywhere else yet. I want to finish it before I start posting it to AO3 or ffnet (and I need to see whether or not it ends up meeting the content restrictions for ffnet. It might not in the end). It's called Deep in Memory, and it's a Weiss Kreuz story. I do intend to finish it, hopefully quickly. If you read it and like it, do let me know. I'm uncertain about this one.
