Sleep till 10:00. Another lazy Sunday. Looks like snow, but the clouds blow off by late afternoon. More pile up on the horizon at sunset, maybe we'll have a white Monday.
Calorimetry experiments in a freezing house. I imagine the fun I'd have with a temperature gun (tells you the temperature of whatever you point it at), but I may not really want to know how cold the floor is. My feet go numb just standing on it. With a digital thermometer, Oz tests the temperature of tea and water in the kettle. When the kettle rumbles and starts emitting steam, it's 80 °C. Perfect for tea.
We have so many sweets in the kitchen. Banana bread, sweet potato cheesecake, fruitcake, chocolates, mochi balls filled with sweet mung bean paste and covered with sesame seeds, stollen, chocolates, and more if I think about it. We were so stuffed yesterday that we didn't cook our Christmas Dinner. Tomorrow we'll do it.
But now it's time for dessert.
