His & Hers Suppers... Farro, Ground Turkey with (his) Tomatoes, Peppers, Eggplant & Mushrooms... (hers) Dill Yogurt

 Quarantine supper tonite...   Live from NYC... 

Bright sunny morning...  temps popped...  70°F...  light breeze...  robins have arrived with their fat red breasts and loud trill...  perched atop the garage...  little hops across the roofing tiles...  stopping every now and then to call out for a mate...  the male will continue his calling until he has secured a female for the season.  Mid afternoon...  dark clouds rolling in...  temps plummeting... chill wind...  rain on the way.


Iced coffee ☕️ and a banana out on the deck...  the hubs always enjoying his hot cup...  discussing repairs and maintenance tasks ahead...  shoring up the forsythia bed where erosion has depleted the soil base...  scrubbing and staining the deck...  rebuilding older planters...  replacing a few shingles... lost during storms.


Spent time in the greenhouse...  all the babies planted in their next size containers...  youngest ones (basil, peppers, eggplant) closest to the heat lamp...  the rest at a distance...   companion plantings interspersed...  marigold seedlings...  nasturtium seeds yet to sprout...  spearmint...  all nurtured and cared for.


His and hers supper tonite...  farro at the base topped with flavorful ground turkey... his with a layer of last nights tomatoes peppers & eggplant...  hers with dill yogurt...  enjoyed with the remaining flatbread pieces from last nights dinner...  Cabernet 🍷for him...  Sauvignon Blanc for her...  delightful 😋


Covid variants continuing to spread as vaccinations 💉 proceed at more than 3 million daily...  make that appointment and #GetYourJabOn  along with half of Americans thus far...  until then...  you know what to do...   mask on... limit interactions...  glide through the market and wash those germy hands 💕😷

How was your day?    What’s on your plate?   Thoughts?
