Scrambled thoughts
- wondering what all the fuss is about amish fiction....haven't they written ENOUGH?
- looking at list of books to review at available publishers and gagging on dreamy amish covers
- and did you know that amish friendship bread has nothing to do that group of folks? the recipe is online, and not a big secret as sharers of amish friendship starter will lead you to believe
- yes, i was ignorant of that fact as well
- was recently given a zip-loc bag of the starter, rolled up the bag and put it on a shelf on the wall, and missed it one day---was about to mush up the bag for the day's mixing
- overnight it had bubbled up so much in the bag, that it rolled off the shelf and into the garbage can
- gary said, "oh, was that what was sticking half-way out the garbage can, last night?"
- hence i found the recipe online to make the starter from scratch---huh
- and not keen on Victoria magazine anymore---it's sorta too frou-frou to me now (anyone else?)
- segue
- cold right hand from using mouse on laptop in unheated bedroom (long story), but left hand warm from sitting on it
- having bedroom that was the former garage challenges our heating ability---electric radiator sucks the money from us---would rather sit on hands
- sleety rain earlier
- longing for spring-time
- oldest daughter making dinner tonight---something with linguini, chicken, pesto, and mushrooms (yum)
- fourth son's co-worker and our neighbor brought him home for me earlier this afternoon (see point #13)
- love it when others make my life easier
- must go make a cup of hot tea
- the cold weather causes me to clinch my teeth
- have a slight head cold
- not surprised considering EVERYTHING
- a bit het up
- can you tell?
