Well

A plus to a four hour doctor appointment, an almost complete mitt.

Sometimes

It's worth checking out the thrift store. Hubby and I were in nyack today and decided to pop by the thrift store. Now thrift stores re let's hit or miss but today was a hit. Those three needle retail for well over $30. I got all three for $9. I also found an American tourist suitcase in very good condition $10. I have a thing for them. Strange I know. I use them for storing stuff. I will have take a pic later. It's getting a sun bath to help get rid of that "musty I've been sitting in someone's attic for a long time" smell.

My morning

Spent this cold dreary morning (January is back 31 and cloudy) cooking. When you have diet restrictions like me and are the only one in the house like that it is some times easier to cook in bulk and freeze. All this became two pans of ratatouille, a pot of eggplant Punjabi, a pot of chick pea curry (basically chicken curry but instead of chicken - chick peas) and a head of roasted cauliflower that I was going to save for other dishes but well I started picking at it (sooo good just a little olive oil and a sprinkle of salt) and it turned into breakfast. Oh well. Yesterday I cooked a bunch too. Granola, roasted nuts and roasted edamame. Still have two versions of one recipe to go but well I have no pots at the moment so the sausage gumbo will have to wait until tomorrow

Well it was a nice tease

The past almost 48 hours of 60's for the temperature (high 68 and last nights low a whopping 64). Tonight the chill is definitely back and it looks like a full moon (or at least close to). Not a bad picture for a phone

My little one

Is 8 today. Cake and picture of Mj are credited to my Kris. The hazy effect in his picture is credited to Dillon burning his lunch and the sun actually shining.

Almost two years

That's how long it's been since I have woven on my loom. It's honestly has not felt that long. Did a quick 4 inches tonight once I figured out where I was.

This year so far

New year new start. Maybe. I'm going to try. In New Year's Day I finished a new hat and then yesterday I hanked up the last of 2019's spinning. I also tallied what I did last year. Let's just say 2019 sucked big time in many ways.
