Daily Notes- March 2nd

                                      

Daughter's Soup.  She asked for turmeric, garlic, ginger and green things in her soup.  Things I do not get to put into G's soup.  There is also carrots, onion, celery and chicken - the basic soup G likes.

I had to do some mixing and matching due to the "virus" going around.  All the chicken bouillon cubes were sold out.  I had to buy the powered Herb Ox Sodium Free and then figure out how much salt to add.  But salt can always be added.  Daughter will eat with rice noodles- the way I like it also.

I haven't made Dee's Pantry Soup yet for myself but she said it only took 20 minutes to prepare so I will just make it right before I want to eat it.  I bought yellow potatoes and cabbage.  Can't wait.

Our daily newspaper has decided to NOT publish a paper on Monday.  So G did word search puzzles with his breakfast and I stitched three new side pieces to something I found on the sewing room floor. Fate.  It was there and I didn't waste more Time looking for something else.

Taking a break from the laundry and might not go back.  Washed my new corduroy pants.  Daughter had a "feeling" for two days that she would find me a new pair- and walked into Goodwill Sunday afternoon and over to the Plus Size section and there on the very end of the rack (where she was standing) - charcoal corduroy pants- soft wide wale.  They turned out to be men's pants but when I tried them on- they fit like they had been custom altered to fit my body.  No need for waist tucks or hems.  Perfect.  And they are an excellent match to my grey sweaters.  I will look very well dressed.  It's a miracle.  A Hallmark  Moment.

I am halfway into yet another Contemporary Romance paperback.  Another one with mixed race issues.  I have to ask which of the librarians is ordering these books.  And how often they get checked out.  Curious.  I do enjoy reading them.  I hope others give them a chance.
