semi-random flotsam
Fathers and daughters, fathers and sons.
It’s Father’s Day weekend as I write this (weeks before I’ll post it).
It’s a pleasant early-summer day, which means my day lilies are doing their thing.
Sunday church means coloring during services:
And an outdoor & distanced cookout at Dad’s for Fathers Day. For which I made the brownies, touched up with walnuts and a little leftover hot fudge sauce because that sounded good and also because that all needed to Go. Away. From me.
Yesterday, I remembered to check my Fitbit battery.
I remembered to charge it as I went to bed.
One of the less joyful thing about living where I do is that parking is at a premium. Technically I should have two spots in front of my place, but I typically need just one (except when my folks lived with me for a while) and my neighbors encroach.

So, trying to plan out meals for one comes with its challenges. And then, also, there’s trying to create variety, and also manage waste by using up what’s on hand. Continue reading “Managing the menu”
In sleep, I’m as still as a stone. I don’t know it, of course, being asleep. But the alarm chimes and the movement is as jarring as the sound. Continue reading “Waking with a guillotine headache”
In no particular order and not all from any one day…
TFW your UPS app says your package is coming by 3:45pm and lets you track your package and at 3:40 it’s two streets away and at 3:46 they change the status to “End of Day” and the truck has driven right past your street and is now 2 streets away on the other side and moving away… Wait! Waaaaait! I’m back this way…. Continue reading “That Feeling When…”
After a week of Greek food I was craving something different.
Do not misunderstand. Greek food is delicious. Continue reading “Flavor mix”
