Street Reconstruction Part 16 & Miscellaneous

 It's late, but I wanted to share the latest update, however small.  Yesterday, temporary no parking signs showed up all along our side of the street.  Apparently to give the regular street sign installers more time?  Who knows.


Not even close to Christmas yet, and this is the best way they could pack my drawer slides even though we've had about a dozen other orders delivered in the last 5 days?  I'm happy to wait for a bit, but Amazin' seems to just want it out of the warehouse ASAP, anymore.  We had three trucks here at three separate times on Sunday.  Full disclosure - there's a hub just about a mile away.

Third time trying the new baguette recipe I made 8 small ones instead of 3 regular size.  Small ones are more work.  I really like how this crumb is more airy than the last recipe.

Hamish is always my little buddy, and more of a lap kitty now with the colder turn of the weather.  Neither of the cats likes the porch being closed.

Amazon are the same over here with ridiculous packing and deliveries - and we are over 40 miles from the hub they use to service us (there is another 30 miles away, but they no longer use that to deliver here). We had one delivery at nearly 10pm on Sunday evening, having had one at 5.30pm too!!! I don't think deliveries are any quicker if you pay for Priime either.
