Belated Weekend Recap
Hola peeps and happy Tuesday. Anyone else get engulfed by the wildfire smoke over the weekend? Three days straight for us with lots of air quality alerts. I hope my Canadian friends are doing okay. It was a bit of a lazy weekend to start until it wasn't. (Thanks to me, I'm sure the Mr is mumbling under his breath.). I have been throwing myself into projects this month to keep myself from spiraling over Mom's birthday this week. Not to mention constantly fighting every aspect of gardening and I swear I typed that sentence before that last time I tried in 2020. I have fungus gnats in the elevated planters because of all of the damn rain we've been getting and the soil can't dry out for them to die off. So I got some mosquito dunks that can be cut into 1/8's and put into a gallon of water overnight and then water the area to kill the larvae then dry the soil to kill the adults. This is apparently common with organic gardening but frustrating...
Happy Friday! I am still full from yesterday but so worth it cause everything is so good. Hope anyone who has to work today gets a slow day but if you are off then enjoy your weekend and stay safe!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a fantastic day! It was the most relaxing holiday I can remember. Our to-go dinners from a local restaurant were phenomenal and we couldn't get over how moist that turkey was. My favorite thing (which surprised me) was the green beans almondine-- FANTASTIC! Even the hubs, who likes nary a vegetable raved about how good that was. I took a pic of the nice little container the meal came in and was tickled by the little dish of cranberry sauce. Excellent meal with zero cleanup. Literally just washed two plastic forks and that was it. We are at noon and were done for the day. We napped and I did a lot of Christmas wrapping and wrote out most of our Christmas cards. Aside from a phone call from work at 7pm (grrrr) it was truly a lovely day.
ReplyDeleteI have a quick grocery store run to do this morning, then a trip to Walgreens if I can't find what I need at the grocery store. Then more Christmas wrapping, making some soup, and finally opening up some boxes that were shipped to me in Sept that I have discovered have some Christmas things in there that I need to address. Ha!
