Everyone's a-twitter about Potterdammerung spoilers, so I availed myself of the opportunity and peeked. Don't worry - I have no interest in spoiling anyone. Each to her own, I say. I found, with Book 6, that spoiling myself on the Big Stuff meant that I could actually read individual pages of the book and enjoy it, instead of hurling myself headlong through, skipping most of, well, everything. After peeking, I realized that even if what I saw was a fake, it doesn't matter, because now I *think* I know, and therefore, I can read more calmly. *shrug* I won't even be getting a book on Saturday (because I own most of them in paperback, so I'd prefer to wait till that's issued) - though I did put a hold on a library copy. We'll see how long that takes / how far down the list I am.

I made peach cobbler this afternoon, which is all allthatjazmyne's fault. It was a bit of a comedy of errors with the topping: the Bisquick had bugs in it; found the Joy of Cooking, which says you should use half a recipe of biscuit dough; had plenty of trouble cutting the butter into the flour, and then when I was done with that step, paused to wonder if I halved the butter, or put in the full amount? Either way - the topping seemed fine (a little extra butter never hurt anyone, right?), and I just tasted it and it is yummy. I kept thinking that my grandmother (whose cobbler recipe it is) would be *laughing* at me: silly girl, can't even make biscuits??
