In the “Of Course, I Always Want More” department, I didn’t get to everything on my weekend TTD list (see last post). I must say, I didn’t do too badly. Here’s a quick recap…..
1. All the summer clothes have been put to rest in the attic. The closet is ready, the fall/winter clothes didn’t make it in there.
2. Didn’t get to the Chicken with Basil Cream Sauce recipe, but did make a Chicken Soup with Fresh Herbs and Tomatoes instead. Yum! The weather was certainly conducive to a bowl of hot soup.
3. I did get my garage workshop pretty well set up. Looks great and I think it will function well. Will post some pics soon. I don’t know about you but I LOVE a functional workspace to play in – is that an oxymoron?
4. Harvested and packaged some seeds in envelopes. Am drying some tomato seeds. Gave my neighbor some basil seeds to plant in a sunny windowsill - there’s something nice about sharing things from the garden.
5. No stones from the beach. Simply ran out of time and energy simultaneously.
6. Roasted tomatoes and some other vegetables. Sure smelled good in the house. Among the veggies I roasted were a few tomatillos. I’ve never grown them before, and the pickins’ were few. Next year I’ll start them inside to extend the growing season. I have a dynamite avocado-tomatillo dip that I will share shortly.
7. Did the pot roast – subbed buttered noodles for the smashed potatoes, and added some maple syrup to the squqash puree – one of my favs.
8. Got all my orders up to date and sent out some surveys as well. I do need to get some new products uploaded to the website, but just couldn’t get there. Hard to believe it’s mid October already and I’m seeing “holidays” just about every where I go. Too much, too soon. Gotta put a move on that.
9. Not even a minute devoted to this one.
10. Did spend a little time in my office/studio. I feel like I need to get my other work done first, cause I could lose myself in there. So easy to get into a project. I have visions of a day when I can just grab a cup of coffee and work, uninterrupted, on projects all day – I can dream, can’t I?
