dine so helpfully provides and I'm completely distracted!And yes, it's the Heated Rivalry fandom that's gotten to me. I can not believe I am reading about Hockey, seriously. Okay, I skim the actual hockey stuff, but the story line is compelling. True, I've not seen the show nor read the books that it's based on, but there's enough out there to at least have a general idea. I have to say my favourite trope? tag? (whatever) is WAG Ilya. Most stories under that tag are generally lighthearted, and that's something that I'm preferring these days. All of this leads me to:
Question of The Day:
February 8. How often do you read fiction?
Daily. And that's been pretty much the case since I learned to read. I do read non-fiction occasionally, mostly technical stuff relating to my hobbies (obsessions, more like) and occasional news reports and such, but my days begin and end with reading fiction.
Some catching up:
February 1. What’s your favourite hot beverage? How do you make it?
Coffee. And I do pour-over (with a set up from Ikea that was about $15) as I'm sick of replacing coffee makers so often (3 in the last 2 years). We've had the same kettle for over 10!
February 2. When was the last time you saw an original hand-painted painting?
Earlier today when I was in Thing Two's room. It's their art work. For art by a non-family member? Last time I was at Mom and Dad's.
February 3. Is there a book you’ve seen made into a film and been disappointed with the result?
Not that I can think of. But then I don't see that many films.
February 4. How old is the oldest book you own?
1905. It's a cookbook from my Grandma, but it was probably passed down from her Mother, considering the age.

P.S. Not exactly typical Feb. weather. It hit +19 C/66.2 F on Thursday and has been above +10 C/50 F since. Looks like it'll be a bit cooler (highs around +8 C/46.4F) with no snow in the forecast until next Monday at the earliest.
