I got yeast, but it may be a different enough type that I can't use it the way I usually do. It isn't instant, but it is fast acting. Anyway, I will see. No way I'm going back to soaking it in water, but I don't think I'll have to. I don't need hints, I've used all of them at one time or another. This is bulk from a restaurant supply place, not the usual bulk two-pack I buy at Sam's. It wasn't any cheaper, just a much shorter drive.

I'm moving furniture this evening. I decided that was the easiest way to tackle some of the mess in the living room. First comes my son's cluttered computer desk, and the contents are going into a box. He'll be pissed, but he can organize it and then I won't pile it in a box. From there I'll do some of the rest of the "company's coming" routine of dusting, folding the laundry dumped on the couch, etc. Nothing to watch tonight, PBS is doing their oddball night (apparently) in the pledge drive, so it's a Netflix DVD. About par for a rainy cold spring night.
