What are you doing?

Just left sur le table, only spent $50.

We have had a lovely walk...the sun came out and it was lovely!

We then fertilised the whole garden...it is a big job as we have a pretty big garden

I have also made some Tuna Mornay and about to make the pizza for lunch

Any pix from the walk?

 

[Kylie1969]

Taxy, we didnt take any this morning as when we set out it was really overcast...we only like taking photos when it is sunny

We are going for another walk tomorrow, going back there as it is a big area and lots to take photos of...so I will take some then

There can be advantages to taking photos when it's overcast. The lighting is much more even. The shadows aren't as strong.

Sitting in my recliner browsing DC & nursing my sore legs.

What is wrong with your legs SB?

I did some weight lifting with my legs at the gym this afternoon. When I was doing it, it did not seem like much but am I ever sore now. Looking forward to getting in the pool tomorrow, that always seems to take the pain away.

 

[Kylie1969]

Ouch...do you think you have have pulled the muscles a bit?

Yes a nice swim should work the pain out

A soak in a hot bath tonight would be helpful too. I find it's best to take care of it the same day.

 

[Katie H]

Kicking back and trying to figure out a new "toy" that was delivered today. My brain is about to bleed. I have an ice pack on my knee because it's been plaguing me more and more all the time. "Arthur" is NOT a friend. The ice feels so good and the pain is subsiding. Yeah!

However, I've had my evening shower, there are fresh line-dried sheets on our bed and I know the perfume of the outdoors will lull me to sleep. I love sliding into bed on Friday night.

 

[Kylie1969]

Katie, I agree nothing better than getting into bed when you have just washed the sheets and they have dried outside...we too wash our sheets every Friday and put a lovely clean set on...we have about 6 sets of cotton sheets

A hot soaky bath with Epsom Salts is good for muscle pain.

 

[Addie]

Epsom Salts is also good for roses.

Another all nighter. Did some sewing, got bored with that. Watched some TV. Got bored with that. Started to clean the stove. Boring! I changed the sheet on my bed. I have only a bottom sheet. Hate top sheets. I can't stand to have it touch my bad leg since the surgery. Don't know why. I sleep with my leg outside the blanket. I take really good care of the graft.

I do have to do a couple of loads of laundry today. But because I have been up all night I will probably crash around ten this morning. Wake up around three.

 

[Andy M.]

I never have a problem sleeping until 9:00AM or later, but today I'm up and ready at 6:30 AM on a Saturday morning waiting for a furniture delivery. (scheduled for 7:00AM to 10:00AM).

I just prepped a big hunk of Hen of the Woods mushroom. A friend found a 35 pounder and was nice enough to give us a big piece! More than enough to freeze, dehydrate, and fry up.

A 35 pound mushroom! Is that normal for hen of the woods? What do they taste like? I know, dumb question, but are they similar to anything else?

Teaspoon for comparison:




Not dumb at all, TL. I'd never heard of them before either. We got an 8 pounder from the same friend a couple years ago. The taste is like a portobello, really meaty. They freeze and dehydrate really well. I use them in soup and spaghetti sauce. 35 pounds is big, but not uncommon, they can get bigger!

there you go again, dawg! last year you had us drooling over your beagle-sized hen of the woods mushroom that a neighbor gifted you...much as i love, so love, mushrooms of every kind, whether they grow in the woods in dead oak trees or under your bed, i should rightfully have mushroom-finding-sharing friends in my neighborhood. some people are just lucky that way....do you think it would maybe increase my chances if i were to adopt a dog from the local shelter? i could afford it, what with all the money i'd be saving from not having to buy my mushrooms....

Oh geez, Vit, that was just last year, wasn't it? No, I just looked, 9/10.

Yes, adopting a dog would definitely increase your mushroom obtaining! Beagles are being trained to sniff out truffles, maybe they could sniff out Hens.
