today is a big, floppy sweater day.

we had a party last night. i made too much food, but people ate it anyway. the spring rolls were an unexpected success, although most of the spinach-yoghurt dip went down the garbage disposal. but people ate, and drank, and enjoyed the fire which unaccountably smoked into the room before deciding to decorously use its flue (and yes, before you ask, it was open).

but today there are dishes to be done, and the house smells like smoke, and there's no sun at all because it's supposed to rain and then snow.

mmm...big, floppy sweaters.
