Agenda tonight:

Do extremely overdue dishes
Scoop litter boxes
Bake ham
Make mustard
Make onion confit
Eat ham with mustard and onion confit. Maybe a side of gluten-free pasta, if I'm feeling ambitious, though it would be a shame to dirty those dishes again. I mean I'll have ham, peas, cream and parmesan, so maybe a nice alfredo? Hm.

Dinner

Yum!

Things I learned tonight: It is a bad idea to add indiscriminate amounts of tapioca starch to mustard to try to thicken it. It really doesn't work nearly as well as one might think -- though perhaps it was my application that was faulty, and not the theory.

Also, it's a mistake to replace mustard seed with minced garlic -- the flavor is great, but the texture is all wrong.
