Field Notes- Sunday, May 2nd. 74 Degrees outside. 67 indoors. Sunshine.

 Marbled Poundcake.  I used to make this in the Bundt Pan.  Wow....that was a long time ago. Where is the Bundt Pan?????? Was there a recipe?  Anyone know?

I saw this image and it brought bake memories of Domestic Life.  Which doesn't exist here at #12. I did find a partial package of Blueberry Biscuits.  In the way back of the fridge.  I resuscitated one in the toaster oven and had it with my Afternoon Tea.  I'll do the same today. Possibly with the remaining two.

I am ready a book about two ER doctors.  With mental health issues.  All the books in the Abby Jimenez series deals with "issues"......this is the newest one.  Most take place in this one hospital and mostly in the ER.  In all the books, the supply closet is where they go to hide and eat lunch. 

I often tried doing that when I worked at the greenhouse......hide and eat lunch. 

Working directly with the public- can be awesome but exhausting. I miss it. COVID shut the classes I taught down.  Now, after all these years, they realize the classes hardly affected the bottom line.

I have a soft spot for the ER.  I sliced my finger one November and the doctor who held my hand and sewed the cut up....was very very kind and gentle with me.  I was a bit over the top in my crying.... I was stressed and exhausted and we were getting on a plane the next morning.  And of course the multitude of ER people who worked on stabilizing my husband after his heart attack- stable enough to get in the ambulance and go racing off with sirens and lights......to the big hospital and it's ER and directly into the OR.  It was that close........but he made it. And then heart surgery four days later.

Notice the 74 degrees up top?  Warm weather has returned to Maine.  Not for long...but welcome anyway.
