A Rescue
We have a small USA flag, 5 x 8 or so, that is stripped on a steel electric fence post on the corner of the sidewalk out the front door. The wind had been nasty and the flag had gone all the way down the post and was on the ground. This morning after getting dressed, I gingerly went down our front steps with a safety pin in hand to shore up the flag so it could proudly fly freely again. It may have been a quick fix, but I rely on that little flag telling me which way the wind is whipping for the day.
This may sound quite like what an older person partakes of, but it is me. Several nights ago we had precooked brats and sauerkraut. There were two brats and some kraut left. I tucked them in the refrig. The last two mornings I have enjoyed a brat/kraut sandwich for breakfast. Heated in the microwave for a bit and it made for a good start of my day. I may very well do the same if there is pizza left over from the night before. That doesn’t happen often as Dennis doesn’t like pizza. Is it about not wasting food or is it enjoying food that tastes good enough to finish.
This morning, I made Dennis the crab salad that he enjoys. It did make a fairly large batch. It was at a cost of $11.00. The box of Suddenly Salad complete with the Italian seasoning did pair well. I dare say there was a lot more imitation crab than what is found in the fare that is purchased in a deli. That was more as if they had a piece of the crab meat and had drug it through the remaining ingredients. Dennis will enjoy the batch for several noon lunches.
On another good note, we have a second night of the chicken oven meal of last night to enjoy this evening.
There is a wind chime hanging from the evergreen on the northwest corner of the house. It has been entertaining me for days as the wind has had its way with it for days. I do not mind it. Hmm. It makes me think there should be a second one with just a bit of a lower pitch for a full cascade of entertainment.
I spent time in the studio this forenoon and when I came up, the sun was warming and welcoming as I sat and read in the cherry red chair of my bedroom. It may well feel quite different when the sun goes down and the wind continues.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
