Time to Shovel

First “real” snowfall of the season, and still snowing. Didn’t have to drive–I’m in life phase 3–but did shovel.

Garlic carrots on coffee beans currently slow-cooking in the oven. Lynne, I’m trusting you. #splendidtable

Upgraded a tablet to KitKat (a breeze) and a desktop to Windows 8.1 (printer was a challenge).

Foraged for essential ingredient for the holidays at Lunds, Uptown. Pie crust will be from scratch–thanks, Dwight.

Cooking with wine today; some of it will even end up in the food. (Thank you, Julia Child.)

I’ve been meaning to do this for years.

Weeding shelves today. These are keepers–had them 40 years, Still computer science bedrock, still taught in college.

Upgraded my image, with a nudge from Dwight. Threw out all my worn tee shirts and ordered tee shirts made in the USA.

Rainy day. A day for playing loud music, slow-braising lamb and root vegetables, and finally tidying my office.

Filled up the tank in our 1996 Honda Civic today. That’s the fourth time I’ve filled it up this year.
