Tagliatelle with Olive Oil, Black Pepper, Parsley and Parmesan... Scoop of Ricotta & Garlicky Sausage

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

Chilly...  early drizzle... overcast...  a damp drab day...  mostly quiet save the few cars splashing by...  a lone squirrel sitting on the deck rail...  drops glistening in her fur...  looking very pregnant...  nibbling an acorn dug from the rosemary planter...  one less volunteer to pull from the soil...  she leaves behind a little pile of shells the rain will wash away.


Coffee ☕️ and a banana inside once again...  the hubs enjoying his steaming cup...  dinner confusion...  no ideas... flying by the seat of our pants today.  The hubs deciding to re-organize his workshop...  phone calls and follow up await.  Listening to the steady drip of water in the gutters and downspouts outside the office windows...  the pitter patter soothing the soul.  


Supper tonite a quick fix of fresh tagliatelle with olive oil...  black pepper...   fresh parsley and Parmesan...  alongside garlicky Italian sausage...  a scoop of ricotta and a lovely glass of Line 39 Cabernet 🍷 a hot cup of decaf for the chilly hubs...  snuggled in his hands to warm them... with a piece of 82% dark chocolate to finish his meal.  


Covid variants surging in the Great Lakes states...  vaccinations 💉 can’t come soon enough...  hospitals in the area nearing capacity.  Make that appointment and #GetYourJabOn  over 43% of adults in the US have received at least one vaccine thus far...  almost half way there...  you know what to do...  mask up...  limit interactions...  if you’re vaxxed keep to small vaxxed gatherings...  slide through the market and wash those germy hands 😷💕

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