    I'm going to be in such shit.

    The burger sauce I made a few days ago (and again last night) contains Turmeric. Now Turmeric is something i've gotten really into over the past year or so, first with fresh stuff, then just the powder.

    Love that shit.

    Except, it stains like a bastard. I stopped using the fresh root as even showing it the chopping board fucked it up for days on end. I can live with it, 'er indoors less so.

    The first of my burger sessions over the weekend was on Saturday night, and I was already a few tinnies in when I started cooking.

    I was just tidying up the house before I came into work, in anticipation of partner who's on a plane home right now, and saw with horror a paw print of fucking yellow bastardry on the one of the couch cushions. They are - or at least were - white.

    Also on one of the covers we have for the couch. Also the side of the shitty Ikea coffee table, also ex-white.

    It's like a 4 year old with mental problems went crazy in there.

    I'm doomed. All I could manage was to turn shit upside down or inside out and hope I can get away with it 'til the weekend, when she's working in France.

    Beware Turmeric, people.
