a day or so
* My friend lb had a bad experience with some non-alcoholic wine, which the restaurant tried to charge him $251 for.
* Due to this, I realized we do have Sangria Senorial (more than one bottle) in our soda stash; if I asked for it at a restaurant and they sent someone to the "dollar" store for it, even with 100% markup it would only be $2.51.
* I have been doctoring glasses of it with orange sections from a cup, and the good cherries in syrup, for a more sangria-like experience.
* Cinnamon rolls.
* I have been attempting to update my seasonal wish list by priority and with context. Technology is making this less easy.
* First nail polish of the season: translucent white with blue-purple iridescent shimmer, with pale blue as an accent color and white iridescent glitter. One eight-pointed snowflake sticker. (Which are basically tiny window clings that you then paint over with top coat.)
* Appointment with oncology social worker; mentioned the grief that is still fresh from 2016. And the things that I do have the power to do.
* Returned the moldy-before-shelf-pull-date sourdough rolls to Costco.
* While talking tonorabombay.
* Who had gone out for the essentials to tide her through a nasty cold, including chicken tenders.
* There were no hot-to-go chicken tenders at Safeway.
* They did have potato wedges.
* TJ's did not have many of the things we usually have for Dim Sum Thursday, alas.
* FOUND my favorite little knife sharpener, which had been wedged into an invisible spot behind other kitchen stuff including my rarely-moved stand mixer
* also found a small brick of golden curry in the same place
* improvised a snarky song about the finding of the knife sharpener, to the tune of Dona Nobis Pacem; I think my elementary school choir teacher and my Fine Arts Camp poetry teacher would both be proud (though possibly for different reasons)
* sharpened my favorite scissors

And I love Sangria Senorial.

Huzzah for finding lost things in plain sight.
So is this the kind of knife sharpener that positions two file-like surfaces at a fixed angle? If yes, is one supposed to pull the knife striaght through, maintaining a perfectly vertical blade, or once leaning on the left and again leaning on the right?
