Quarantine supper tonite... Live from NYC...
Vanilla skies... light drizzle... thermometer 35°F... chilly damp day... schools closed for the holiday... no one out... few cars on the road... too miserable for even squirrels and birds to venture forth.
Coffee ☕️ oatmeal with cinnamon and craisins... warmed the tummy... no supper inclinations... instead a trip to the store to purchase a new microwave... our 35 year old machine finally warming its last dish. Spent a bit of time researching quality and price... settling on a newer version of the same unit. Off to the store... Presidents Day sale... the machine back ordered about a week... excellent price... worth the wait.
Mr Sam doing a smidge better each day... less wobbly... the hubs improving as well... the brace keeping the knee steady while permitting flexing... stairs becoming easier... neither of us suffering any ill effects from our vaccines 💉 at all... arm discomfort cleared up and fatigue eliminated with a good nights sleep.
Supper tonight... meatless Monday... a crisp salad of cucumber... garbanzo beans... red onion... beets... & basil... in a balsamic vinaigrette... on the side queso de friér... pan fried... unfortunately no browning this time... pan wasn’t hot enough... flavor delicious though... topped with basil and a bit of olive oil. A glass of wine 🍷 rounded out the meal... green tea for the hubs... dessert a slice of banana cake.
Dangerous weather effecting two thirds of our country these next few days... please folks... if you are in the path of these storms... hunker down at home if possible... make lots of warm soups... stews... chili and hot teas.
Tips from the hubs... industrial plumber... If you lose power and have no heat... open the cold water taps to allow dribbling hopefully keeping pipes from freezing. Be careful with propane heating units to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning... and the same with generators too close to the house.
Inoculations proceeding... demand outpacing supply... when you become eligible don’t wait... make that appointment and get your jab 💉 on... until then you know what to do... double mask up... short market trips... limit all interactions... and wash those germy hands 😷💕
How was your day? What’s on your plate? Thoughts?
