Salmon and Curly Fries with Red Cabbage & Carrot Slaw

 Vaccinated supper tonite… Live from NYC…

Back in the freezer…  thermometer 🌡 shivering up to a high of 23°F (-5°C) with a brisk wind feeling like little needles on exposed skin…  zoomed out to throw away the trash… outside for less than 15 seconds…  absolutely frigid 🥶 

Breakfast…. Hot java for two ☕️ the hubs enjoying his cottage cheese alongside…  exciting arrival today…  ordered Dark Rye flour earlier in the week… came today…  planning to attempt pumpernickel bread sometime next week… meanwhile flour is lounging in the freezer unaware of the task ahead

Spending a bit of time attending to paperwork…  calls…  grateful for the five windows surrounding the office desk… streaming sunlight warming the bones making for more pleasant tasks.  Wondering whether birds feel the chill… watching them flying from tree branch to grass… pecking the ground… seemingly unmoved by the biting cold 🤷🏼‍♀️

Orange Supper tonite…  roasted salmon with old bay seasoning…  curly fries…  red cabbage, carrot and red onion slaw…  alongside a glass of Line 39 Sauvignon Blanc…  dessert…  an cider donut 🍩 each…  hot steaming tea for the hubs…  he’s been feeling the bitter cold more so lately…  needing that hot cup of tea to warm him 🫖 

Sharing a bit of information from a Connecticut ICU nurse…

“We are seeing tons of people in the hospital who had the initial Covid vaccines but didn’t get the booster with omicron.

Some very ill and not with the cold like symptoms that the government would like you to believe but days with fever, cough, and yes dying as well… we are overwhelmed in our ER at all CT Hospitals. Unfortunately the daily positivity rate is skewed because more people are testing at home and not reporting results. If you are symptomatic, test on days 1,3,5 after symptoms surface. In the hospitals we are seeing people negative day one but then positive on days 3 or 5, it’s everywhere”

Please folks… pay attention to what is happening all over the US… listen to the nurses and doctors  #GetYourJabOn   your health is irreplaceable… mask up… limit interactions… fly through the market and wash those germy hands 😷💕

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