Jigsaw

Posted at 6:43 pm MDT to Miscellaneous

I need to let my brain recharge. Since I got home from Denvention I have been totally immersed in getting this computer set up -- I haven't even read more than a few chapters of the many books I have acquired recently.

Nanette has been out of town, so I haven't been working at the farmers' market. I was glad to skip last week because the weather was cold and rainy, but the last time I worked was 3 weeks ago and I needed to restock, so I went down to market this morning to shop.

Peaches are now in season. And eggplant. And peppers are starting to come in. I also stocked up on goat cheese, mushrooms, chicken breasts, and buffalo and elk steaks. This was a good week to buy expensive meat, since I was leaving the market right away, and would be going home before the meat had time to defrost.

I just had chard (sauteed in bacon grease with garlic) for supper, and tomorrow I will do something with the eggplant and peppers and cucumbers. (Cucumber yogurt sauce for the felafels I have in the freezer. Yum.)

After I got home I got out a jigsaw puzzle I bought last year and have never assembled and spent several hours working on it: I needed to do something non-verbal for a while.
