Random stuff makes a post, right?
# I made an apple crumble! It is about to go in the oven after sitting in the fridge overnight! (that's not a required step, but it was pretty late when I made it so I decided we'd have it tonight instead). It is, hands down, the easiest thing I've ever made. I even think I might have made one in home ec, because it's that easy. The worst part is stewing the fruit, and even that's a cakewalk.
However, because I can't read instructions, the topping is going to be far too sweet. Also I forgot to halve it, so we've got some left over in the fridge (where it will allegedly keep for a week). I think I might do something with it and the tinned peaches. OM NOM NOM.
Later: TASTES GOOOOOOD! Topping is a bit dry - less flour, a bit more butter next time. But otherwise OK! *thumbs up*
# I do have another FFXII post to come, but I haven't had a lot to say for the past few parts, so the next one's probably going to cover Golmore Jungle to Archades because honestly I've been so tired of late that a lot of my brain has just been, "Oh, OK".
# I do also have tumblr updates, but again with the tired, and busy doing Other Stuff™ that is decidedly Not As Fun.

ruuger posted a link to a thing where you can find out your Finnish name!
Mine is Vilja Jokela, which apparently means "grain" and "rivery". I have no idea what to make of that, except I suppose the rivery part makes sense, since I am an Aquarius. *shrugs*
(If I do my chosen name instead of my given one, I still get Jokela for a surname and...I don't know what to make of that).
# I've been thinking about locking down my old livejournal because it is indeed old, and full of a lot of horribly embarrassing stuff. I remembered that LJ now has a mass post editor. HURRAH! I celebrated too early, because apparently you need a paid account to lock multiple posts all at the same time, and no way am I giving them any more of my cash ever again. *sighs*
# also I just downloaded a pattern for a fucking massive cardigan, and I think, when my printer ink order FINALLY arrives, I will print it out (after the Important Thing I need to print) and start knitting that fucker because why the hell not.
I hate cardigans, but I hate being cold even more, and this one just looks amazing. I can catch up on animes while I do it because the worst parts are colour changes (which I might ignore) and shaping.
Also I just finished a pair of socks in hot pink and teal. They look horrendous, and they are AWFUL to photograph, but I love them.
# I am four episodes behind on Kill la Kill right now, but the fucks I give are zero (it's not that I don't care; I do. I just can't be arsed with streaming at the moment. Although maybe when I start that fucking amazing cardigan?????)
