I have done the impossible (and that makes me mighty)

Today I undertook a project I've been contemplating for a while now: cleaning out and consolidating the spice cabinet in my parents' kitchen. We'd ended up with a lot of duplicates because finding anything in the spice cabinet (especially things we don't use frequently) is damned near impossible so we've bought extras, and it got worse when I moved back in because I brought the contents of my pantry with me.
I have reduced our stores to only 1 cream of tartar; only 1 ground nutmeg; only 1 ground ginger; and technically 2 paprika but they’re different varieties of paprika. When I started, we had fully 4 each of the cream of tartar, paprika, and ground ginger, and 3 nutmeg. For the number of meringues we make, 1 cream of tartar is probably a lifetime supply.

I also watched the governor's briefing on Covid-19 for the first time in a couple weeks, and got scared and cried (10 of the 71 new cases in Warren county where my sister and her family live are children within 4 years of my niece's age), but we will get through this together, just like he reminds us every time. Probably my favorite thing about the briefings is the way Gov. Beshear explicitly calls out racism when he points out that the mortality rate for novel coronavirus is 2x the percentage of the population of our Black citizens--it's refreshing to see a politician acknowledging facts.

When she got home, mom and I went to Burger King because nothing in the house seemed appetizing.

Tomorrow is the day that I clean, and I also have D&D tomorrow night.
