Ah, I didn't even know that the Girl Scouts did shortbread! (The short annual sales make me clutchy--if these are going to be the last cookies I get for a year, do I really want to waste time trying something new?)
MCVITIES! Chocolate-covered is my favorite, but the plain have their appeal, too. I think one reason I bonded with my college roommate (the one you saw recently on IG) was that we both loved them so much. Back before they were as available as they are today, she once mailed me a pack after visiting the UK...but a pack missing a few, because she couldn't help herself as she was packing them up. R was horrified but I understood the temptation. :)
You and Brian seem to have worked out a good rhythm for alone and together time. Does he sense it, or do you have a way of communicating it to him?
I'm finding I need even more time alone as I get older, and I'm starting to recognize the signs (irritability, over-stimulation) a bit better. It's a life-long project, getting to know yourself. :) M.
