“You’ll be visited by three spirits”

The three spirits:

Measured out the Christmas cake ingredients with a continuous song on the theme of “Remember you’re halving the recipe!”
Only had to re-weigh ingredients once.

Mum’s retirement community had a little early Christmas “do” tonight and somehow they managed to collectively produce the most AI-generated looking food selection I have ever seen

Also the leader said “we are not doing literary analysis”

Got into the completely wrong turning lane and had to do a complex re-route maneuver because the driver in front of me had tied a helium balloon shaped like a Party Sloth to their tow-bar. It was bobbling around like anything and I became Distracted and Entranced.

I went to a poetry workshop at our local little art centre and we read some Mary Oliver and I scribbled in my notebook and then sidled over to their collage bits instead

My account on the old place, invited to community notes. Somewhere in between, pls

Making the gingernut-sherry-cream log situation for the New Years. In my family’s cultural microclimate this is called “Striped Tiger”

Anyone know what this spider is I found ON MY NECK after driving home from gardening at my Mum’s place?

Mum casually sending tangi information in the middle of the night “just in case” to wake me up in a relaxed state and not in a got damned panic

Still tremendously irritated because I was trying out various family organisation apps, and after I added the third child to the setup of the app this happened

Imagine getting an advent calendar and it has raisins in it (my Mum would have definitely bought us one of these to share in the 90s and somehow my turn would always be raisins)(still better than the carob era)

Left the teen with a bowl of icing and several packets of candy and spinaties and the result is both impressive and terrifying

Ruining the day of the nice lady at the old-fashioned lolly shop by trying to explain the concept of cursed Hedgehog cakes
