Quarantine supper tonite... Live from NYC...
Weather today was rainy and cool... kids splashing in puddles... laughing as Mom’s take their hands... pulling... trying to keep those pants dry... acorns becoming marbles that skid underfoot... squirrels huddling in their nests... soggy fur drying among the leaves and branches... it’s fall in the Big Apple...
The grass and bushes loving the drink... I could swear they were smiling... storms continue throughout... by tomorrow afternoon the sun will allow her countenance to shine down upon us... her reflection sparkling like diamonds among the wet grass... It’s just the right time for rain too as the trees need water to display their beautiful fall foliage.
Just finished watching the debate... what a disappointment... it was impossible to learn anything with the constant interrupting... talking over and button pushing... the American people would have preferred some discussion of actual issues... plans to help out small businesses... deal effectively with covid... rebuild our infrastructure... address climate change... discuss civil unrest... the economy... but no... felt like work... watching a couple on the verge of divorce trying to hammer out an agreement... it was difficult to watch... traumatizing...
Thank goodness for the mute button...
Supper tonite was meatless Tuesday... since we ate our spatchcocked (love saying that word) chicken last night. It was a warm salad of farro, roasted asparagus, eggplant and peppers... caramelized onions... chopped fresh tomatoes, cucumbers and red onion... chick peas... shredded Parmesan... lime juice and and a mustard vinaigrette. Delicious and so filling... made for an excellent supper... even the hubs enjoyed it... Yay! He’s coming along in adapting to more frequent meatless meals... makes me happy.
Mom received her absentee ballot today and will have voted by the end of the week. We spoke with her pre-debate... she asked for a summary tomorrow... wasn’t interested in watching it... she is wise...
How was your day? What’s on your plate? Thoughts?
