Our wings are not tired.

I'm working.

I did get a cookbook email. Yay!

No math.

DH has been working all day to get me a functional clothes dryer. The thermostat broke again on the old one so we bought a new one because it was old and he had fixed it quite a number of times. Ends up that it was a problem with the power cord, not the thermostat. The wires weren't secure and came loose in the plug, probably because I didn't tighten it up well when I put it back together after disconnecting the generator. Anyway, it seemed to be working ok and then when he was putting the back back on it sparked and maybe is blown. He is frustrated and now went to get his voltage meter from the office.

Sigh. I haven't had a functional dryer in a couple weeks.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Oy, a nonfunctional dryer is a pain--especially with kids in the house!

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Birthdays, Maria and Kristin!

Sun starting to peek out a bit aournd here. I'm guessing we got about 6-7 inches of snow. Unfortunately, even our little access road is now plowed -- no chance of a snow day tomorrow. Razzafrazzin' weekend snow storms.

Happy Birthday KristinT and Maria! Many birthday hugs and smooches.

Still snowing.

Made and ate homemade chicken and vegetable soup- coupla chicken breasts on the bone, browned and then poached/simmered with carrot, celery, shallot, garlic clove and herbs and spices. After that came together to my satisfaction, broth was strained, added the chicken meat (removed before it got overcooked), a sweat of fresh diced carrot, celery, shallot, and garlic, and threw in some baby spinach, yellow pear tomatoes, and fresh cilantro. It was really good, and I think I may experiment with more Southeast asian flavors/spices/textures the next time I make it.

Tom's going to make some chili using chunks of pork loin later today. Snow days can be fun. Food is love. That is all.
