Checking the forecast???
Well...it was supposed to be sunny all week and quite warm but it only lasted a day. Boo hoo!
It has been extremely cloud and and boring and depressing and ...the list goes on.
I read an entire novel on Saturday and another on Sunday. The Dearly Beloved (Arie read it too) and it still doesn't sit well with me. The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepples was a quick light read and in many ways much satisfying than the first. Perhaps because the issues were not quite so complex.
Yesterday I went walking in the mall and then out for breakfast. I also helped out at New2You from 1-4. I met some interesting people.
Today everything has been going in slow motion although I did do a few things.
Have you ever saved a recipe because it looked interesting etc. This was one for Cranberry Orange Muffins with only 103 calories per. The intriguing thing for me was that you could dump all in a blender etc...that part didn't work.
I did get them into the oven and they do taste good but I'll never make them in a blender again.
I also made some granola...I needed to use up a bunch of oatmeal. It was easy to make (1 hour in the oven though) and tastes great!! I would use more of the sweetener/binding agent next time. I'd like it to be clumpier (is that a word?)
I made a marinade for the meat and it is doing it's thing, there are potatoes in the oven, the washer is running and the dishwasher needs to be emptied.
And it's still cloudy and cold outside.
On a brighter note it is obvious that the days are getting longer...it's light when we get up now and it will stay light until after supper! I do love that!
