Daily Notes- Saturday, February 5th- Posting Late I forgot!!!!!


 I painted cloth yesterday.  For a Special Project.  Which I got done this afternoon.  Will go into the mail on Monday.  And I had a second cloth under this one- so I might make something else tomorrow.  Not today.  Watching Curling today.  Love Curling.  China v USA.

Delightful long phone chat with my sister-in-law in Wisconsin. We compared weather stories.  Whatever was on the ground early yesterday is now solid on the driveway and walks.  No hope of getting any of it up. Kathy also mentioned our Mother-in Law's Chicken Soup.  I had to laugh.  She refused to do what MIL did and throw away all the vegetables except for carrot.  I let my husband do whatever he wanted with his chicken soup as I don't eat it.  He eats "strained" broth,  carrots and chicken picked off the bones with noodles cooked separately.. No onion. No celery. No "things" floating in broth.  We laughed.

I had a problem with the pencil sharpener.  Husband had dropped pencils on the floor and they all needed to be re-sharpened.  Took awhile.  But I finally got it going.  I think some lead got stuck in the mechanics. Took much maneuvering to get it working.  I was tempted to say, out loud, "we need to buy an electric sharpener".  Husband would have had his coat on in less that 5 seconds.

It feels really chilly in here today.  And I am cold.  I am also hungry so as soon as husband has his Chicken Parm heated up I am going to heat up my last bowl of vegetable bean soup.  And I am going to think about what soup to make next.  I was going to make Bean & Escarole last week but no escarole.  I might make Lentil & Potato next.  Get a hunk of baked ham at the grocery on Monday to cook with the lentils.  I don't consider ham as meat.....I am such a weirdo.  Or just make the same Bean & Vegetable, again.  Which sounds okay to me.

I love this soup, hillshire
polish keilbasa, instead of andoulli. Stove top, not crock pot. I add the spinach to whatever amount I'm eating. Not to whole pot. Does that make sense? https://www.theidearoom.net/white-bean-sausage-soup/
