I set a vanilla bean, some cloves, and some orange peel over low heat to steep for a chunk of the afternoon. This has competely filled my house with scent (may this sweet smell come to You, Hetharu, as Your sweet smell comes to me!). I added rose water (a touch past its best-by, for values of 'a touch' equal to 'a bit more than half a year'). I have jasmine water and jasmine essence due to appear in the next couple of days, too, for the last flavor that goes in there; I'll put that in in the jug. I have added a bit of tea for tannins and pitched the yeast (which nearly outsmarted me in the package, silly thing).
Now we'll see if it blows out the vent overnight. :} Ahh, booze.
Other accomplishments for the day: three loads of laundry. Watered plants. All the prep for the mead. Joined a ZG raid that took down a couple of minibosses. Topped up one tank and added to the other; fed the lily. Glowered at an essay that needs writing. Made sure
arawen's computer was returned to him. Uh, probably some stuff I forgot. (ETA: Handweights! I remembered the handweights!) But much with the productivity today.
Now going to poke at email for a bit.
