Boredom is bad. I made soup and herb bread from scratch using a few things from my garden yesterday. Today I made spaghetti and meatballs and baked a cake. Made my own recipes up for the bread, soup, and cake. I like it even if no one else is around to try it. Dan is coming over tonight. I'll make him try some of it. I used basil, cilantro, dill, and thyme from my garden in the bread and soup. Yay! I'm actually using the stuff I'm growing this ear! Lol. Later this summer, I'll have tomatoes, corn, green beans, black beans, cucumbers, grapes, watermelon, pumpkins, and if the birds don't get to them first, blueberries. And the herbs: cilantro, basil, mint, bee balm, St. John's wort, rosemary, lavender, thyme and dill. So lots of fresh things. Since I'm by myself, it means that my work will be getting a lot of food stuffs. I'm going to be baking a bunch. All well. I'm going to go do a bit of cleaning to make this place presentable then go get spiffied up for dan.
