A light, but steady rain falls.\u00a0 A cold rain.\u00a0 The pre-emergent and the cygon I applied yesterday will get a chance to work themselves thoroughly into the soil and around the Iris rhizomes.\u00a0 As the rain melts the remaining snow, I will have a few spots left to hit with the pre-emergent, but not many.\u00a0 I’m ahead of the curve this year and hope to stay that way with regular, not too lengthy garden sessions.<\/p>\n
A full stomach is a great aid to grocery shopping.\u00a0 The list and only the list, so help me Martha.\u00a0 And so I did.<\/p>\n
Back home I made lunch, watched the first episode of Battlestar Galactica’s last season (I recorded it Friday night.\u00a0 Love that DVR) and loaded the dishwasher.\u00a0 After lunch I got out my Golden Plump chicken, read the directions for CNS on the back, and then began slicing and\u00a0dicing carrots, celery, onions.\u00a0 Saute the veggies.\u00a0 Then 10 cups of water, Paul Prudhomme poultry seasoning, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for an hour and a half.\u00a0 Underway.<\/p>\n
While doing that, I also made a green salad since I had the carrots and celery and onions\u00a0out already.\u00a0 A few strawberries bought a week ago had that soon to rot look, so I chopped and diced them, too (I was in a rhythm.) and put them in plastic containers with a cutup orange each.\u00a0 So there.\u00a0 Domesticman to save the day!<\/p>\n
A nap\u00a0 now.\u00a0 Naps on rainy days, cool rainy days.\u00a0 A wonderful thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
