To add to the confusion: For 2 weeks/year I help out the local ballet studio with stage crew. We have this big white backdrop curtain, and colorful lights are pointed directly at the curtain to make dramatic and moody changes to the background during certain dances. When I heard the name of these, I assumed it was the “psyche curtain” and “psyche lights” because that’s how it is pronounced.

Turns out the box is marked “Cyc.” I have to assume that the people that sold the curtain are way less amateur than I am, so I would like to add this third potential spelling.

Apparently yes because I tried Grayjay and that didn’t work for me either.

Just today, I was at a birthday party talking to a stranger. She said her husband uses a sauna daily, but they have an apartment… So he has a pop-up sauna in the kitchen. She said he uses it, wipes it down, and folds it away.

I don’t. I make one careful, lengthwise cut, then I slice up the halves to get a bunch of semi-circlss. Mostly, I just do this so the cucumber stays planted on the board better (for safety), but not losing the round slices is a nice secondary benefit.
