Daily Notes- Saturday (????) March 5th. Where do the days go?


 This is a screen shot of something Nigella calls a "tray bake".  Looks like kale, garbanzo beans, apples and sliced acorn squash.  I liked the picture mostly but I would give the food a try.  I eat all those things separately- why not together.

The second book......by the crappy book writer.....more sexual misconduct.  This time a big fancy lawyer getting back at her cheating husband who has a show on PBS about insects- the Bug Doctor.  He has an affair.  One.  So she has almost a dozen. He ends up alone. She does not.  This book should have been the screenplay for an outrageously funny movie.  Not Hallmark. So Not Hallmark. "Do This For Me"

Today.  Today I am reading Bet Me for the 100th time (or something like that) and I basically adore this book.  It made the top ten romance book lists on several sites on the internet. It's an older book so finding a copy (hardback) to own- isn't going to be easy.  Daughter is working on it. But I will be happily reading this book on my couch today.

I had cheese and crackers for lunch (3 pm) and never got around to having supper.  I was reading.

I have been recording the first season of Law and Order Criminal Intent.  I watched 1-4 the other day. You forget how good it was.  These episodes are airing from 2 to 5 am.  So...have to be recorded.  TiVo. 

The Sun is shining today and glaring off the frozen hard snow still on the ground here.  I drove my car yesterday.  Radio is on the wrong station - the battery went dead- someone selected a new station..  I hate when other people (daughter/husband) drive my car and change the station.  At least make a note and go back to the original when you return the car.  I cursed everyone as I drove the car.

Dee mentions going shopping and expecting unmasked people. I did too. Because of the relaxing of Federal and Local mask mandates.  Everyone was masked.  Dee said the same. Everyone was masked. Thank you.

I went to the grocery store Thursday. I was the only masked person in the store, including employees. Today I stopped at the post office, hardware store & a small quilt shop. Again I was the only one masked. Our county's vaccination rate is only about 51% so the general consensus seems to be, "We don't need no stinkin' masks." People really exasperate me.

hmmmm, I think we are still all masking up. Of course, I really only go to one grocery store. I saw ONE man without a mask, everyone else had them on. This store is an older, greyer clientele so I could expect they take things a little more seriously.

Death numbers have gone down to a couple of hundred the last two days. I check that number first thing in the morning, every morning for about 2 years now. I am looking forward to not feeling paranoid when leaving the house. If we can ever feel that secure again?

Oh, and I have been completely addicted to sundried tomato relish (bread dip) and really good sourdough bread. Although I have quit eating bread lately, this combo just tastes so good right now. The bread dip is a little pricey, but I justified by saying I was well worth it, then proceeded to eat it all week. With some olives! Sometimes some cheese.
