Spent the weekend pretty much at home. Did a bunch of random house stuff. Remounted the basement TV because it would get crooked when you moved it up or down. Of course, now that I fixed it you can see the mount peeking out behind it on the left side, which is why they probably skewed it over as much that it caused the crookedness when they installed it originally. We did go out to the library (Lincoln Belmont) branch on Saturday. Nice place. Lucy needed to get a book for a project. So we played some games, got some books. I reminisced about taking physical books out of the library and lugging them around. And I signed up for a library eCard, so I can take eBooks out, if I ever find out that I want to. Oh, and since we don't have soda at home, or even flavored powdered drinks, I've moved to cocktails. Gin agrees with me. Made orange sponge cake (Lucy wanted to make it from a recipe out of one of the library books). A little dense, but orangy. Maybe need to put a glaze on it. Didn't make a big one, just 1/3 of the recipe, and used the mini springform pans we had. Made monkey bread Sunday morning using cinnamon roll dough and butter and brown sugar. Pretty good. Put the access panel for the outdoor spigot up as best I could. Did laundry and reorganized my clothes/closet a bit. Now I've got a nice counter in the closet for things, and better organization of my sweaters.
