Stir Fried Rice

I made clotted cream

Doing a mother’s day shebang tomorrow, so this’ll go with the scones I guess.

I refilled the dog food bin

I know what I want to be when I grow up

7 mile hike

A poem

I made a batch of ginger beer

But it exploded all over the floor

I have half a batch of ginger beer

I’ll have to make some more

This is probably not ideal

Time keeps moving

Wow, been a while. Life is busy busy busy. We started making our own bread, and our own yogurt, and our own tofu, and our own kombucha, and our own soap. Actually trying to do some yard work this year, too.

The tripod got her side cut up yesterday so we got to spend a couple hours last night at the emergency vet getting 6 stitches.

It’s weird to not have her bouncing off the walls.

And then, here’s some strange music:

Taking the background music away from the Village People make them sound pretty sad.

Split pea soup

It’s been a slow cooker kind of week…

Finished soup

Ten medium onions, sliced.

Put em in the crockpot (The cheap one that doesn’t have a rubber gasket to seal in the moisture)

I also threw on some bay leaves and pepper and a splash of red wine and vinegar.

Cook the onions on high all day long.

Mixed up some beef broth, 5 cups worth, added it in, let it cook for another half hour or so.

Bought some stale French bread at the store, and some fancy Gruyere cheese.

Put a baking sheet in the oven. Put the bowl on a baking sheet in the oven. Put the soup in the bowl on a baking sheet in an oven. Put the bread on the soup in the bowl on a baking sheet in an oven. Put the cheese on the bread on the soup in the bowl on a baking sheet in an oven. Put the whole mess on a bump on a log in a hole in the bottom of the sea and turn on the broiler.

Broil for 10 minutes or so, until the cheese looks fantastic.

Eat.

Gonna try slow cooker French onion soup

Snow snow snow snow snooowwwwwwww

Dog park playground equipment

Three-wheeler dog doesn’t like it, but the fuzzy one seems to.
