took a nap

played the radio, played some guitar, read some, sat out on the porch in the nice warm weather....so now I'm thinking ahead to supper.....I've got some frozen breaded fish.....and I mixed up some raisin slaw a while ago and put it in the fridge.....and I can fry some potato.....so a meat and two sides comes together easily enough.....tomorrow I'll put some country pork ribs in the crock pot with sauce and leave it all day to end up with a bunch of slow cooked pork, with is a versatile foodstuff.....can go in chile, tacos, sandwiches, etc.....or just eat with a fork with grits and some veggie.....

beautiful walking weather

was a little chilly still early on, but at mid-morning the park walk was very nice, sunny and not all that wind like we had for a few days.....did the grocery shopping already too.....going to make tuna-and-peas on toast some day, haven't had that in a long time.....and I got enough other stuff to last a week I guess.....should make cole slaw to use up cabbage sometime soon....should get to mid-70's this afternoon.....

wind continues

there was some blue sky for a while and I walked over by the mill, but with the wind blowing me around......and now it's blown another dead branch down in the backyard that I'll have to saw into pieces and take to the curb some time.....not today though, I'll wait until it's nicer out....I ate a piece of that chocolate cake for a snack in the middle of the afternoon.....as some of the cousins around here might say "the devil is in that cake".....hard to resist temptation.....nothing but junk mail today.....didn't see much inspiring in the grocery ads, though it does look like they have some good chicken deals this week, so maybe fried chicken and cole slaw, something like that.....and I can do something to eat up the rest of the tortillas and frijoles.....I had bean and cheese quesadillas last night, with a handful of olives.....didn't end up raining anymore, the wind has blown that over to the coast.....

dark clouds, windy, but not too cold

A storm must have gone through in the night, but it didn't wake me up.....on the radar it looked like it was still raining around Columbia.....it won't get as hot today as it did yesterday, unless this overcast blows off.....that German chocolate cake is rich and heavy.....it will take forever to eat that up.....but I guess it will keep for a long time in the fridge.....I probably gained a few pounds from all that eating yesterday.....I woke up thinking that I had forgotten to do something, but I can't remember what.....

Whiteford's Giant Burger

they do have a pretty big burger there.....altogether way too much food for lunch today, so now I feel like I could take a nap.....I did get a German chocolate cake while I was out too.....they had two-layer and single-layer.....I just got the single, and that should be enough cake for a week or more I imagine.....so now I've got a window open in the living room and the ceiling fan on .....comfortable.....I've got a library book to finish, but I think that if I started reading it would put me to sleep for sure, that's been happening lately.....

4/11/11

not as foggy this morning, it's already burned off, going to be warm today.....stayed 70 in the house overnight.....another front comes through after midnight tonight, with "numerous thunderstorms" for Tuesday.....can't think of anything much different from usual to do today, other than going out for lunch......it will be good porch-sitting weather anyway.....I guess I should walk the park before it actually gets hot out......was 64 on the newspaper walk......

overcast burned off

in the middle of the afternoon, so it's mid-70's, don't know if it will really get to 80's or not....pleasant out anyway.....I thought maybe it was around 2, but looked at the clock and it was after 3.....thought about trying to watch some of the golf like I did Saturday....but, when you get down to it.....golf is boring.....so I've just been listening to the blues station mostly.....don't know what's for supper....maybe leftovers, or maybe an omelette or quesadilla?
