Daily Notes- June 18th



Image from one of the donation Bon Appetite magazines I picked up at the library.  The month of June issue from some year.  Cherries.  I discovered I actually do it the way they recommend.  I cut the cherry in half from stem to stern and then use the point of the knife to remove the pits.  I like to pile cherries into my mixture of Noosa yogurt and Bran Buds (for fiber).

I do feel guilty buying cherries since workers who picked them have spiked the numbers of Covid cases in Washington State.  It's like dominos tipping and knocking the next and the next and the next over.

Watering.  Endlessly watering.  
This is Summer Gardening.  Watering. And later it's giving plants food.  And then collecting the produce.

Today- I will use my rescue inhaler- endlessly and get some soil into containers and try and set up some gardening on the driveway.  Then try and keep the boxes from tipping over as they tend to do in the wind. I am going to miss my co-watering helper.  Some days he drank more water than the plants.

John Bolton could have done the "right thing" and testified to everything written in his book at the impeachment hearings.  But he wanted ...what?  The spotlight on himself? Shameless.

I am loosing track of what I have already written here.  Comes from not having all that much new stuff to share.  Not much goes on in a household where we are either doing small chores, reading or just sitting and doing nothing. The friend with the chairs/seats is calling everyday- to just ramble on. She'll be returning to Boston next week.  To tend her 102 year old father.  Who recovered nicely from COVID.
She was out clearing her side yard of invasive bamboo yesterday.  Told me all about it.

Connie- today would be a perfect day to sit on the back deck- you with a beer and me with that canned Vodka beverage.  I even scored a bag of those corn chips yesterday at the grocery.
