i like tedious and tactile - pretty much anything that most people would consider OCD would be something i probably enjoy. i've already done a lot of the initial sorting so what comes next is more like cleaning up what i missed from before and combining beans that are likely one variety into...
yes, nothing worries me other than something like crazy people coming after us for some reason.
otherwise we're ok and could go a month off food on hand - yes, we'd miss fresh citrus, onions and some other things but we'd manage. we have enough canned items to get us through plus what is in...
the beans are shelled and now it is down to sorting. while it wasn't a large harvest (for many reasons including many that are also my own fault) i did get enough of the beans i was most interested in and also some new ones to work with (like, yes, i do need more projects after all :) ) so on...
mee too! :)
tonight was a simple meal too. half a peanut butter sandwich, a few small oranges and a few cookies.

we had lunch here with one of my brother's and a nephew stopping over. baked potatoes with cheese, bacon, sour cream, tuna casserole, blueberry muffins that Mom made a few days ago and cole slaw. all of it good. :) i doubt i'll eat too much this evening but some cinamon rolls might be...
all of the above! :) i am usually quite comfy on my perch here, but in the winter it is even nicer to have some hot chocolate and a good book to read (and no chores waiting!).
Mom was nice to me last night when she was cooking as she doesn't usually do the dishes (i told her years ago that...
