Souffles Clocks Hobbies
Mom made an enormous souffle that rose to more than six inches in height (I measured).
The new cable box doesn't have a clock on the front. For the time being Dad and I have repurposed an old desk clock, but its ticking sound is too loud.
I wish there was a cultural shift toward recognizing cleanliness hobbyists as hobbyists. Most people do not floss exactly 20 minutes after each meal (immediately afterward? you're stripping your enamel, my god!), wash every body part every day in a highly specific order under a rigorously monitored water temperature, vacuum every surface in the house daily including the ceilings, or wipe down the inside and outside of their purse weekly with a special cloth, and the impact is roughly the same as not being able to identify a bird call or train whistle, or not having an opinion on sash collars, or not being sure how to modify the soil under a hydrangea, if that even is a hydrangea, or writing a shopping list using a slightly crushed ballpoint pen with an ad on it.
