I am always interested in weird kitchen things.<br /><br />Also, you call reading for 2 days "hiding," but I call that "self-soothing."

I have to go through the being paralyzed part first.<br /><br />We have a 20 cup percolator that we haul out when we have a house full and that thing makes amazing coffee and it can sit there for hours and never gets that burnt taste. My kids keep trying to keep it by accident when they borrow it.

I just had two days off work, which I spent doing not all the work I was behind on and not all the crafts I had hoped, but reading. Which for me is a form of hiding. Because of the stress.
