Really, A Sunny Sunday.

Wow, A Full Weekend Of Cold Sunny Weather.

Clean up the place, run to the Eastside to drop off a check (thanks Swanda), and come home to chicken stock, lots of chicken stock. Between deboning in the morning, in the fridge for 8 hours to get the fat to the top for skimming, and taking a break from programming a website to skim and put it into containers to freeze overnight a day a greasy hands (well, not the programming part). The containers in the freezer are filled with cup of stock making them perfect for only having to unthaw what you need. In my case that would be one puck per 1# batch of challah.

What I can’t believe about today is that I spent 5 hours trying to program this PayPal interface so that come summer, the Radical Faeries can pay for summer camp online. My problem is that I need to host the button so that I can have three distinct items on the invoice:

  • A variable amount $50-$350 that the user fills in
  • A drop down menu with either $0 for no bedding, $16 for single bedding, or $22 for double bedding
  • A $10 convenience fee that goes on everyone’s invoice.

Didn’t get it to work, still researching, and tomorrow I’ll see if I can do it from the registration side. Good thing this isn’t due for a couple of months!

In the midst of all that, the leftover salad from last night and a reasonable sized (unlike most of the others in the freezer) steak, a little red wine, and back to coding.

Luckily I’m pretty much packed for Ireland.
