I'm pretty much done for today. Thinking of calling for Thai delivery. Doesn't get much easier than that.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Suzi, I'm extremely impressed with your packing-fu.
I also meant to add that I love the idea of msbelle flying in to help Maria.
I'm sort of procrastinating on shotgiving which means I should go do it so I can stop worrying over it in my brain. And then I can take a nap.

Go Suzi! I wish there was delivery Thai near me. Fried dumplings with red curry sauce would be fab right now.

Ginger scallion shrimp and Thai ice tea are on their way. Now I just have to leave my boot on til they get here and then I'm retiring to my room.
Thanks for the kind words. I feel like I pack and pack and there is still so much to do. CJ hasn't been much help but I'm cracking down on him when he returns tomorrow. I just wish I could do more than a couple of boxes an evening.

You're doing a ton! I am super jealous of the Thai delivery.
Shot and a nap, Kat! It sounds like more fun if you don't know what kind of shot you are talking about.
I have so many dishes to wash! I just want to get my kitchen in good enough shape that I can celebrate Butter Sunday tomorrow by making a bunch of pancakes and maybe waffles, but even that modest goal is surprisingly challenging. Oh well, at least I'm not really trying to do anything else at the same time. Except cooking. Oops. But I keep thinking of dishes I want to try to make and I need to cook while I have motivation!
At least roasting beets doesn't dirty any dishes...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I promised myself I would do a deep clean of the whole house this weekend, which I am pretty sure makes me a lying liar who lies, but the kitchen and front nook area are a lot cleaner than they were at least.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm pretty sure no one can do a deep clean of the whole house in a weekend.

Well done!
I wonder if I can find something like a pot roast recipe with Mediterranean flavors that I can use for my goat shoulder. That sounds good.
Oh, crap, time to wash more dishes.

How Mediterranean? I had a Provencal beef stew in Paris that had olives in it. And gnocchi, but I feel like regular potatoes would have been at least as good.
