It's tired and I'm cold, so I'm just going to jot a few things down.
☆ I'm going to be learning to write pysanky this year - do traditional eggs using wax-resist method. Making the holes and blowing out the eggs is surprisingly easy if you have the right gadgets; I hope to have several ready when it gets closer to Easter. I know that my first tries won't look very nice, but that's okay. Doing it well will take practice, and if I don't like the results, it's easy enough to just toss them and try again next year.
☆ Fic rec: Folie finally finished the long VME casefic she has been working on for months, and it's SO GOOD. Read it here: Lest the Devil Close His Fist 20.6k of mystery, thriller, and a miracle that turns out to be... well... not quite. I think it's possible to understand and enjoy this one even if you haven't seen the canon, as long as you know the basic premise of Vatican Miracle Examiner. (VME in a nutshell: two priests from the Vatican travel around to various locations in order to test whether reported miracles are genuine. There, that's the canon, now you know enough to read the story. ;p )
☆ I think maybe the weather is making me exceptionally tired... It's starting to get lighter out, but ughhh, not fast enough. Winter will be over when? (At least two months more of it. Sigh.)
