Easter Saturday @ Work

I forgot we opened an hour earlier.  Rolled in and no one had started the coffee for the 10 am class.  Playing catchup on a busy holiday Saturday with two classes to teach isn't fun.  I finally just let it go. What could I do to change anything?  All I could do was change my attitude.  The two classes went very well, I think.  Perennials and Annuals. What can you say?  So, I switched it up and discussed garden design and choosing a "color story" of three or four colors for your perennial and annual plants.  Changing up the leaf shapes.  Using the the Fibonacci sequence of numbers.  Yes, I talk about mathematics in my plant classes. I DID manage to acquire an excellent education in my lifetime.  And I can count change back.

G seems to have taken the dog for a walk.  I think I should be using this time to myself to actually take a nice hot shower.  But, I miss talking to you.  So, I am doing this instead.

We still have leftover ham in the fridge for tonight's dinner.  I may decide to surprise myself with a dessert. Either the tofu chocolate mousse recipe or just heavy cream whipped with instant SF pudding.  I was momentarily tempted by the snack cake served for the classes.  The Killing and Mad Men tonight and I have to watch this week's episode of Smash on the internet.  I missed it on Monday.

I have two days off in a row.  Sunday and Monday.  I plan on catching up with laundry and finally starting on our taxes.  Last year it took all of two or three hours to do our daughter's and our taxes.  Why do I procrastinate?  Crazy.  And SO typical of my behavior.  I do it with my reading books also.  Wait until they are due the next day and THEN start reading them.  I have just such a book.

Now, it's time for hot shower and my cozy jammies.  Sigh.  Happy Easter!  If you make deviled eggs with your leftover Easter eggs-- add a tablespoon or two of soft butter to the mayo, mustard, yolks mixture.  Makes the eggs or egg salad creamy and extra delicious.  I've been doing it that way for over 40 years.

I have book club on Monday night and I've been procrastinating pushing through the last half of Fahrenheit 451. I'm skimming and I think I can absorb enough to speak thoughtfully at the meeting. Ahem.
