Kielbasa with Fresh Tomato Sauce and Brown Rice

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

Hot times in the city...  mid 80’s...  bright sun...  few clouds...  feeling like summer...  squirrels digging in the garden...  looking for buried nuts...  stuffing their bellies with polly noses...  one chubber sitting on the deck rail polly nose between his/her paws nibbling the seed part and tossing the wing over and over...  a little pile of wings accumulating in the grass below.  Fledglings abound...  some gaining flight skills...  others barely landing on their feet as they plop atop the garage roof.


Out on the deck...  iced coffee ☕️ and a banana... the hubs enjoying his hot java with a mini wrap... hard to comprehend how hot coffee cools him off...  he says it works...  Mr Sam curled up under a chair on a carpet square...  snoozing on and off in the warmth.   The hubs taking a well deserved break from the arduous task of scrubbing the deck while we chat and munch.


Errand day...  dropping off gloves for Mom’s sweet aide...  then off to the market for our weekly shop...  10% off on Tuesdays for seniors 😁 

Picking up fish, a pork tenderloin to be marinated, some dairy, a few grocery  items and a kielbasa for supper per hubs request...  love the garlicky flavor of the polish sausage. 


Home just in time to take the hubs to PT...  he is probably close to 85% recovered per the surgeon...  the last 10-15% is about 50% of his strength and stability and PT is making all the difference...  so grateful for his recovery.


Simple supper tonite...  pan seared kielbasa with sautéed fresh tomatoes over brown rice...  a glass of Line 39 Cabernet alongside...  dessert...  Echinacea tea and crystallized ginger...  sweet and spicy.


More than a dozen states have seen zero new cases of covid in the last few days...  a true milestone.  Vaccines work!  Not vaxxed yet?  Make that appointment and #GetYourJabOn  be part of the solution.  In the interim...  mask up...  limit interactions...  sail through the market and wash those germy hands 😷💕

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