Et tu, oven?

[anonymityblaize]

It really shouldn't be possible for so many things to break in such a short space of time. And it definitely DEFINITELY shouldn't be possible for two ovens to break in the same way in the space of two years. And yet in such a short space of time I had forgotten just how many meals we eat rely on having a working oven. Well, more frying and boiling and grilling and microwaving recipes shall be learned or rediscovered over the next few days!

In happier news, I found this article very interesting - I think of it as "fandom: older than you think." (Also, more back-up for the argument that girls are not "ruining" fandom; we bloody started it in the first place.)

In related, but depressing, news - Internet troll jailed for 18 weeks.

And in crafting news, I've been featured in some more etsy treasuries, which you can see here, and my Inception cross stitch continues to trundle on apace.

Just read that article about the troll- thoroughly ashamed because he lives in my hometown.

That cross-stitch keeps getting better and better!

Hope you manage to get your oven fixed, or find a new one :)

Don't worry - people like that can come from anywhere! I just find the whole story thoroughly depressing. I love the internet and the ability to be anonymous on it (as may be obvious from my screen name!) but folk like that, who clearly have no idea what the consequences of their actions are, are ruining anonymity for the rest of us!

And thank you - so far this seems to be the best cross stitch project I've ever worked on!
