RE: Vacation Wednesdays

in #art3 years ago

I wanted some coffee myself, but two minutes before I decided I wanted some now, I put vinegar in the coffee maker to clean it and when done, I need to run 2 or three pots of water through to clear. First pot of hot water is done....LOL.... 2 more and then maybe I can actually have some afternoon coffee out of it.... early evening?? If only I had thought of it two minutes earlier.

My mother has SUCH a green thumb and the land her house is on was forrest up till about 7 years before they bought the house, so all of the soil is still so naturally fertile. It's magic the way it will grow stuff with her care and attention. I recognize some (no all) of the little vases she is using and that I have given her over time. Amazing that she still had them all. She is trying to dejunk a little, but her house has so much open space and storage space and sheds and 45 years worth of "stuff"..... she is not attacking it avidly, but slowly. I'm glad she is thinking on it some.

Three days off together is always good. Since I'm not traveling now though, it is not as strongly desired as before. I would then need to work 4 whole days in a row though.... LOL... yuck....

I decided I really needed to wait till the weekend to bake, so I could plan on taking most of whatever I cook to Moms or somewhere, so I don't eat it all myself. It could happen ya know ! So that came off the list of possibilities for today. The photos of Christmas cookies? Those can make me smile any day !

You know I adore my family, ever single one and I usually don't even step near anything that would cause strife, inside or out, so I don't like that it makes me wonder about my sweet paintings and if they even still exist. I don't dwell on it really, but if it comes up, it causes me to pause for a moment or 5 and conclude once again that I wish I had not given them to her. LOL !! jeepers.... who knew? I still love her.... I guess. 😄

Homemade ginger ale? That sounds devine. I want some ! Can't wait to hear how it comes out. Are you going to post the process???

Sort:  

Wish I had thought about oh, but it is such a process. You have to add sugar and then geest and let it grow and all that sort of silly nonsense. So the short answer is no. It's in the open right now on me bread proof setting just to keep it room temperature while I boil water and sugar and mince some ginger. I'll probably show you the last step. Probably only you and next time perhaps if it comes out right oh, I will do the whole process.

The last step is supposed to be you drinking some of it.... right? I want a video so I can see your face after the first sip. That always tells the truest story. LOL... I made myself giggle typing this.

Yes! Right!
