Well, my mum's lefse was like, this close to being a big, huge, hilarious disaster. I went to go help her cook it around 6pm, to find that she had used a different recipe, which she got from like, Mars or something. I don't know. But whoever wrote it was clearly on crack, and had decided that two cups of flour for ten pounds of potatoes was enough. Basically what she had was really sticky mashed potatoes. What it's supposed to be, according to the recipe that my grandmother uses, which was passed down through the family and was used during the Black Hills gold rush, because it's that fucking old, is sticky dough. But it's the kind of recipe that my mum hates, because there are no absolute measurements. You take your mashed potatoes, add some milk, let it chill so you can put your hands in it, and then continue to add flour until you can knead it like dough, and then add a little bit more for good measure. I had my grandmother write it down for me once, and that's more or less what she put on the card for me.

Mum didn't like that, so I spent about an hour fixing her sticky mess before we were even able to start rolling it out. We did not finish cooking it until after 10pm. I am so done. Ten pounds of fucking potatoes. And then it didn't even cook right because she used her Martian recipe and put butter in it. Seriously, I'd love to see how this person manages to roll out their sticky mashed potato mess, because there was no fucking way.

So, I only go back into the bedroom to sleep, because otherwise Robin Hood's in there being a hermit. He takes most of his meals in there and only leaves to go to his gaming nights on Tuesdays.

I've just pulled three bags of trash from under the bed and around his desk. I'm banning food from the bedroom. I'm banning beer from the bedroom. He can have a drink back there so long as when he fetches it, he brings out his empty soda can. The man's nearly 30. This is disgusting. At least the mess on my desk is all magazines and Post-it Notes.

I'm still not done back there either. I wanted to move the bed because as it is, it's blocking the door. It was set up as a guest-room, but as a long-term bedroom, it's not set up well. But I may need to wait until Robin Hood gets home to do that bit. I'm already exhausted from just cleaning the floor and his desk.


At least I finally found all the missing socks. They were all shoved under the bed behind his wall of trash. :|
