Sproing
Posted on Tuesday, February 21st, 2023 at 1:46 pmIt’s spring. Windows are open, afternoon temps in the low 80s, sunny, moderate southwesterly breeze from Mexico. People are active outside, yard work, construction projects, walking, driving, just being outside and soaking up the emergence from winter.
There is a grass sprouting in the front yard that Myka likes, so I can let the oat grass go dry and brown. It’s not crabgrass, but she seems to find it acceptable.
A near miss solar eclipse is happening now. Both the sun and moon are at 49° altitude here, and their paths are crossing, so less than a degree off from a shadow cast.
Pulled pork and pork tenderloin are thawed. I’ll make a store run tomorrow for milk, to make baked potato soup with the tenderloin. There are still refried black beans, and one more serving of tamales. So a lazy variety without complaints this week. Ground chuck goes on sale tomorrow, I’ll be stocking up. I plan spaghetti on the next cycle, using up what I’ve got in the freezer. I’ll have a pattie press day for the chuck and pan sausage. (Nice warm days for washing hands a lot.)
Trash and recycling duties today.
