laundry. breakfast. comic shop. shopping for housewares. and computers. and just stuff. and dinner in the suburbs. and more shopping. and laundry. and building a bookshelf.

fun stuff, i tell ya.

at least justice league was good, and so was the company who came over to watch it, bringing a belated birthday gift. woohoo. Interpol on cd. and pizza and cookies for dinner kicked ass.

managed to get caught up on laundry, more or less. so now, it's time to clean house again. and finish some sewing. (yes, I am a hausfrau. and i am SO over being teased about it.)

gotta get the mantle-cover done so we can get the christmas stuff up.

oh, and if anyone knows which store carries the calphalon stainless steel canister set, please let me know. i want to look at them again before i buy any, and i cant for the life of me remember who had them. thanks. there's two other contenders: a set at Marshall's (brand unknown) and a set at Target, (brand also unknown.) Of course, I would also consider some nice, wide-mouth white ones, too. As long as they seal and are at least rust-resistant. My old tins from college were a little too beat up and werent sealing anymore, and had started to rust. Bad.

Update: I found the Calphalon canisters at Bed Bath and Beyond in Dublin, but not Upper Arlington. Now I'm uncertain as to their quality. While I trust Calphalon, they didnt seal as tightly as (sigh) the WalMart ones or Marshall's ones, whose steel might be questionable. I know I'm over-analyzing. This is the reason I didn't get them last year. I did see some glass canisters with screw-on lids for $5 at Anderson's. Old fashioned jars like Grammie used to have... They'd be fine, for now... till I find something better. I guess.
