Good morning Steemit

How are you today?

I'm headache free for now, so I'm glad. The fire's burning in the wood stove, because there's not much sun today and it was getting a bit chilly inside. My lovely boyfriend got that sorted before I was even up!

I've got a bread going in the bread machine. I had this bread mix still lying around and figured it was about time I used it. I had previously opened it up accidentally, because I though it was oats, so I didn't want to keep it for much longer.

So, yesterday was a slow day! I did some steeming in the morning and shut down the pc after that. I watched Netflix. A lot of Netflix. I decided to try Designated Survivor, because it's supposed to be a good show. I enjoyed it so far. It's not really the sort of show I'd normally watch, but that's okay. I wanted to take it easy, so it was a nice way to pass the time.

In the evening, we played some Guild Wars 2! The Halloween event has started, so I wanted to do some farming. Turns out, there is this pet that I need. It's a shadow raven (link to it's GWwiki page) and it would fit my necromancer character perfectly! Not to mention the legendary staff I want to own one day. The problem is, it needs huge amounts of candy corn if I want to buy it. So now, I have to do a lot of this event, a lot of the time, to gather this amount of candy corn.

Oh well, guess I'll know what to do these next few weeks!

It's actually what I am planning to do today. I've done plenty of baking already these last two days, and today, I need to use other appliances like the bread maker. I also have to do laundry, so I'll give the baking a rest for today.

Yesterday, I made oatmeal cookies with raisins and dark chocolate. The recipe I found in one of the grocery store recipe books seemed easy and tasty. Turns out though, there wasn't enough liquid to really form cookies (that might be because I used vinegar/baking powder instead of an egg...), so I had to add some coconut oil and water. Anyway, they didn't call for chocolate either, but I'm sure that must have been a huge mistake on their part. I mean, ofcourse cookies need chocolate! Well mine did yesterday. They turned out really good and I just kept on eating them and the lemon bars all day long to make sure I had enough food to battle my headache. I guess it worked, because it didn't return.

Which reminds me, I do need to grab breakfast soon to avoid getting a new one. I think I've said about all I wanted to say anyway. Time for breakfast and then curating.

Have a good day!

P.S.: It's a good thing I copy/pasted this text before posting, because it didn't go through the first time. Could someone please explain to me what's wrong with Steemit lately? People say there's a DDoS, but if that's the case, I'm sure there's something someone can do about it, so why hasn't that happened? Or is there something else going on?
