omorkaCurrent count on RotK:EE -
Just the movie: 1 time
Movie + cast commentary: 1 time
Movie + writer/director commentary: 1/2 time (stopped at end of first disc)
Appendices: 1 time, not including all the still-frame stuff

Made toffee again. Came out very nicely this time, and I think I grok what![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
greeneyedpagan said about the stages, although I will probably continue to use the candy thermometer as well.
Next experiment: fudge.

I am so hoping none of my students has relatives in the parts of SE Asia hit by the tsunamis.

bassfingers showed the crowd Lost Skeleton of Cadavera tonight; DM showed up (yay!). I'm not sure that a pastiche of the Bert I. Gordon-style 50s bad SF flicks really needed to be made, but they did a good job of it.
--
I've missed a lot of this moon. Much of it has been because of the weather, but another large chunk is because of me being too busy to pay attention. I'll have to do better next time.
--
Completed a number of projects (gave the Ravenclaw scarf tomemeslayer tonight; I'll have to see if I can get a picture of him wearing it to post); still working on DM's Slytherin scarf and a few other projects of my own, which I can finally pick up again. Thinking of starting the big triangular cape from the autumn Knitter's Magazine, although probably using Lamb's Pride Bulky instead of the Manos del Uruguay (I can get the LP locally, while I'd have to order the Manos, and I've proven to myself that I cannot pick colors worth crap over the Web).
