Sunday, December 7th, 2025 08:44 pmYes it snowed and no I didn't go out, even if the sidewalks kind of got clear by midday. Kind of. West side of street must have been salted, my side wasn't. Anyway.
Fridge started leaking water inside yesterday. Did it again today. Googled about, something that should drain in the freezer doesn't, caused by gunk or maybe ice though self-defrosting fridges shouldn't have ice. I cleaned the back of the freezer as best I could. Anything further they say requires taking the back of something off which no, not gonna do. Fingers crossed.
Have discovered that adding vodka to hot chocolate makes a lovely warming drink that doesn't upset my tum the way Black Russians do. Doesn't make me tiddly either but relaxes the muscles still. This may become my winter drink of choice.
At Loblaws on Friday a woman was handing out samples of Parma ham, which was so good I bought some from the deli counter. Asked for 200 grams, she accidentally cut me 250, which was a hideous price but hell, Christmas. And figured hell again, sheep lamb, and bought fingerling potatoes, Swiss cheese, and eggs, so that I can subsist on Savoyard omelettes for the next week. Loblaws fingerlings come in bags and are not to be trusted, but I can cut off the bad bits easy enough. Fiesta's are better and their Xmas music is nowhere near as annoying, but Fiesta also has cake slices and I must stay away.
