Your result for The Commonly Confused Words Test ...
Advanced
You scored 93% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 67% Expert!
You have an extremely good understanding of beginner, intermediate, and advanced level commonly confused English words, getting at least 75% of each of these three levels' questions correct. This is an exceptional score. Remember, these are commonly confused English words, which means most people don't use them properly. You got an extremely respectable score.
Thank you so much for taking my test. I hope you enjoyed it!

Mildly entertained by the result - I mean, how did I manage to not to get 100% in Beginner, but 100% in the next two levels?
I made dinner tonight - lamb mince in filo pastry parcels. The filo pastry was fiddlier and took longer than I expected, but they turned out spectacularly well and there are more for lunch tomorrow. The lamb mince mixture also had onion, garlic, currants, pinenuts, cinnamon, cumin, sumac, an egg, parsley, salt and pepper. It's definitely something to make again, but maybe in half size parcels as a starter with a dip or as finger food at a party. Lot of work for a finger food though - definitely a weekend meal.
We went to dinner at Coyotes before we went grocery shopping last night. It was unexpectedly good (none of us had ever eaten there before), reasonably priced and there were about a dozen cocktails to choose between. The sign identifying the bathrooms wasn't lit particuarly well, although given that it's metal, when the mirror balls start going in the evenings, it might be more noticable. Going back to Chaffers St New World, on the other hand, was not a success. The isles are narrower, the store is more crowded, it doesn't have the gourmet range that Thorndon does and the layout is strange since they finished renovations.
We did buy some Early Cheer though and I have a sprig of it in my room, because I love the smell. Nurk by Ursula Vernon arrived yesterday in the Bookzone order and it's really fun. Yes, it's a children's book, but it's the sort of children's book that I would actually give to people of the appropriate age, or even people who are older than that. The illustrations by the author/artist are a lovely complement to the story. A practical hero who understands the need for dry socks is an awesome thing. It's short chapter book, hardback and covered - I'm willing to loan my copy out to people who want to borrow it.
Also arriving in the same order for me were volumes 5 & 6 of Kitchen Princess which is one of my favourite mangas. It continues to suprise me - just as I'm starting to think it's falling into traditional but enjoyable manga plotlines, it does something else and the characters have to get over things, which they do at times and don't at times, but in a fairly believable manner. I wonder when volume 7 comes out in English...
I think my cat has worked out how to turn my heater on. Sometimes I come home and the heater in my room is on and I swear I turned it off before I left for work! Like today, for example. I remember turning it off, because I've been somewhat paranoid about this happening lately, but when I got home, my room was lovely and warm and the heater was on. I'm going to have to start unplugging it to make sure it doesn't get turned on.
