Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I worked sunday and will be working Saturday. However that meant tuesday wednesday,thurday and Friday off.
Made the mushroom pate yesterday. Made a very painful trip to the oncology office that Nathaniel had been going to . Card and soap for them - tears all around, but I feel a little better. carrot curry soup cooking on the stove for tomorrow
happy hour at 4
1 dr appt scheduled.
2 paper grocery bags full of clothes 2 donate.
can't leave the house until tree service people finish in my yard, then cannot drop off the bags, swing by grocery, and mail things.
I'm in tech until at least 10:30 tonight, and we have two big concerts on Saturday and Sunday, so it's been a lot of trying to get artists to give us tech riders and stop changing things while we can still get the backline subrented. I full expect to get more changes either tomorrow or Friday from their management.
I baked a pumpkin pie earlier, and then I walked up to the farmers market to buy fancy chocolate for my cousin's birthday (and the walk will have to count as today's exercise, but since it was 30 minutes round-trip, I think that's decent), and now I need to bake an apple crisp and remember to put the wine in the fridge.
Later I need to clear off the dining room table (which will require a leafblower and/or flamethrower) and then paint my nails.
Laura, that sounds so good!
I have to cut up some carrots and celery and make dip.
tree people are gone. I am off to run the errands. Then I guess I will start on the cooking.
I finished the work I wanted to get done about 10 minutes ago, and I am not about to start anything else, so I need to kill 11 minutes, and then it is off to TJs bedlam for just one thing, and then home until Monday. YAY
Coconut foam is in the fridge, wine is selected and bagged by the front door, I am technically done with holiday prep.
Of course, there's all the not holiday related stuff I have to do. In a bit.
So I was watching The Great British Bakeoff last night and they had this thing called Hot-Water Pastry Crust. I may try it today, and see if my pie comes out okay.
And now off to the vet. Poor puppy is still sick: I think she ate some of the mat on the front porch the other day. At least that's the only possibility I can think of...
Consuela, are you making a savory pie? For some reason, that's what I think hot water crust is for?
Finished my stupid work and will try not to think about it until Monday.
