Weekly review: Week ending July 23, 2021
| review, weekly- We built a step-based LEGO Great Ball Contraption and modified it to go in a loop.
- I started steno again. To my surprise, I'm now at ~50 wpm on the simple drills.
- I updated my business books, fleshing out my GIFI table and cleaning up a few entries. Now the taxmap generated from my GIFI table matches the taxmap ledger file I had manually written.
- We arranged flowers into two little vases. A- put one in the bathroom.
- We harvested and dried some mint. We did lots of canning, too.
- I revived my sourdough starter from the backup in the freezer. Room-temperature water and some time in slightly warm incubation seems to have helped.
- We made steamed buns and meringue cookies. It was a little stressful juggling two recipes and worrying about the effect of the humidity, but it worked out.
- I sewed a nose wire onto one of A-'s free masks from St. Joe's.
