Very Sweet Day
The temperature outside today made it feel super sweet. I decided to make it a bit sweeter by trying something I had never done in my 75 years. It was time to try to make a batch of tapioca pudding for our dessert this evening. It was quite labor intensive for me . . . a lot of stirring to keep the whole milk from scorching. We had not had anything but 2% milk in the house for years. After two steps of adding a boiling mixture to beaten eggs slowly so the eggs would not curdle, it seemed to be all about the stirring, stirring, stirring. Dennis sampled after it had cooled and deemed it good.
We have purchased a prepared container of tapioca pudding at the grocery store but it was runny and very white. It obviously isn’t prepared with eggs due to the expiration issue.
While I was in the kitchen being busy, Dennis was out and working with his Harbor Freight wheels. Our hose carriage is now sporting white walls. Two of the older inner tube wheels hit the garbage. The remaining two wheels seemed to have some redeeming life left in them and have been stored in the garage.
All in all Stauffer Avenue has had a good day.
