Seeking Normalcy

Today we set up Zoom accounts so Dwight can attend yoga classes, and I can tutor ESL students. Note to self: try to remember to shave.

Stocking Up

I love grocery shopping, but for now it’s once a week. When outside I keep my phone in a one-pint Ziploc bag, hence this view of Wedge Co-op’s produce section today.

Data Snapshot

Backed up data to a BitLocker-encrypted thumb drive. All our data backs up continuously, but I like to periodically save a snapshot.

Zoji Cooking Polenta

This evening, Zoji is cooking polenta. This is new for us: for years it’s been cooking rice, and steelcut oats. (After this experiment, I found it best to make polenta on the stovetop, stirring frequently.)

Basil Pesto

Fresh basil for a salad. Soon Dwight will process all the basil into a pesto which we will then freeze.

Multicultural Ingredients

Enjoyed the fruits of my Tuesday multicultural walk. For dinner: sautéed Chinese broccoli with risotto (bitter versus sweet), Japanese Kit-Kats for dessert. For lunch: Norwegian-style lefse, butter, no sugar, with stinky cheeses.

A Run-in With a Drill

Got sewn back together after an incident involving an electric drill. The staff at Urgent Care were lovely, and I had a nice lie down.
