🚤 🚤 later in the day then usual, sunny and Eternal Blue. Yes, coffee but there was an 8 AM errand run to Simit, the Bagel
We entertain today. A BIG adventure. [ and I mean it ]. Serving bagels and cold cuts to the cousins. And this will be a rare get together. Last one was likely a funeral. Next one, likely a funeral
Lynn visiting from Hawaii
Brian coming down from Collingwood
Wendy popping over from Yonge / Eglinton
Ray lives S and W a bit
We grew up together in the late 50 s and 60 s.
⛵⛵ .....ah, yes, coffee is available and the view is ..... gray and shows clouds forming in the Eternal Blue
Progress, early afternoon, blue sky showing, sun and a stiff wind .... day is comfortable
lunch was noodles and won ton plus veg. A touch of shopping breads, cakes [ dessert for Fri ] and rice
plus some dinner fixings [ sushi and breaded chicken ]
🛻🛻 typing w / coffee brewing and looking out on .... High cloud and sun .... definitely, fall is seeping in. Cooler nights and slightly cooler days
Report :sluggish day. Accomplished. Ventilated the first floor, M .. objected on waking. I tried to exchange the air. First floor windows cracked and the hall fan running.
Clearing out stuff. I had packed older / not useful shorts and sweat pants plus some outer clothes [ very old and not my size anymore ]
Psych wise hard to toss clothes, sentimental, yes but more cheapness or ' I'll wear it one day ] ignoring ten years of ' not wearing it '
Thus, 3 bags of clothes are ready to go at the door
💺💺...... coffee and typing .... daily newspaper is retrieved and appreciating being indoors.
Cold is the word and windy. WL started by stating Tues or Thurs might be best for me for fishing. Except rain. Then he types ' we ' ll go tomorrow [ Mon ] - what clairvoyance !!! Capital day, Monday
One problem [ sort of ], remains COOK the fish. We shall see said the Zen Master
gray is the world,
fish adventure in grilling. Alright but the skin stuck on too much and some bones came thru [ M .. not a bi fan of either ]. a marginal success
🚖🚖 ... ah, the morning view included Canada geese and sea gulls and the sun coming over the hills - on the ' Bee. Wind was NW and the temperature, jacket type day.
fishing. hot and rewarding. Nothing big [ bass were < # 1 ] but feisty. Sunfish aggressive and fun
the company was excellent, WL is relaxing.
🚧🚧 .. the view, white - ness above and dimmer than usual light
yes, coffee and typing ......
First order: the bathroom scale read 80.3 in big LED THEN died. OK. Mr Fixit time.This day is weigh in morning. And I am not 80 anything anymore.
Well, replace the batteries except when I flipped the scale over, I noticed that the selector was switched to ' Kg '. Ah, 80.3 Kg then
Then the display died. On inspection, the terminals were green covered. Electronic cleaner and sanding swabs, blow dry and reassemble. Success!
And the scale read 177.2 ( lb s we hope )
⛲⛲........ the Eternal Blue .... a little haze off in the South or SE
blueberry tea ..... to hydrate but coffee is burbling
cloudiness built in over the last hours. sunny but way less blue
for a change, I put together a ' Japanese ' curry. the seasoning paste or cube is the Japanese part, ' medium hot ' but I reduced the size of the paste mould that got put in. so, just right
I used thin beef roll and onion to begin the stir fry. Slow. Next potato strips and carrots were microwaved fro 3 - 4 min. Add the veg in and let bubble, adding water for several minutes
I scooped out some hot water from the pan and dissolved the paste / mould carefully.
On adding the now liquid flavour, a good stir then simmer for some minutes. Flavour coats the veg and meat, all the while the whole mixture thickens
Rice was ready and curry rice bowl, it is. Quite well done
Exercise finished as well
