Why Not?

 Well, here I am again, post #2 in a week! How exciting!

#1 I made bean pancakes for Lil Squirrel!

Clearly that looks like a pancake!  
I did everything right...

Put the stuff in the mixer
Mixed it!
Drank wine
Cooked it*! 
*Fake news alert, this is the 2nd batch that went straight into the garbage.

And I'll leave it right there. I'm never trying these bean pancakes again. I was trying to give my kid some protein, but believe it or not, it's the 2nd time I've made these and the 2nd time they ended up tasting and looking like crap. 

#2 Salads can F--K OFF
Yesterday I made a salad from this recipe. I didn't take a picture, but if you look at the recipe, you'll see a really nice picture. Luckily it turned out delicious, but what a pain in the ass!  The cool thing about it was that it used so many things from our garden! Here is a list of vegetables I used from the garden: mint, parsley, basil, tomatoes, cucumbers, garlic! Anyway, I knew my darling would like that I used all that stuff and he liked it! I'll probably make it again, but now I know what I'm getting myself into!

#3 I made these oatmeal chocolate chip cookies I made them right and they turned out grand!
#4 Gladiolas
My grandma Edith loved them, so love them too, but they are so dumb and they're always falling down! I just don't remember hers falling down this much. I salvaged a few for the table. I know I need stakes, but I'm so lazy. :) Maybe next year?!


Bye,

Surprise! What did Talie and Ms. Sequitur find? HA I meant Ms. NON-Sequitur of course.... How exciting, a teeny tiny (or tee-niny as my Grandma B says) little critter. A baby gecko is gracing her presence on my keyboard. Check out this amazing video footage taken immediately upon noticing the gecko/lizard/cold blooded animal: PS: I made it to work today. I continue to do a Christian Cross each time I arrive somewhere. If anyone knows another religious type sayings I can do or say when I am safe, I would appreciate it. I'm not sure if Jesus and I are vibing.  BIG HUGS Non-Sequitur!

SATURday

In the Park...I think it was the 4th of July. (Think that song by Chicago) Well, it's the 7th today- So how was everyone's 4th? How do you feel about your independence? I was thinking about that-- how come we always say, "Happy 4th!" and not "Happy Independence!" Wouldn't it seriously be an adventure if we were still part of England? Maybe we'd all have British accents and Canada and the US would all be like one big country. Maybe we'd all have health care? And calling my Canadian friends wouldn't be long distance! Yesss! Pets are so much work. Man, I'm babysitting these fish and they are exhausting. I mean, I have to feed them TWICE a day. Come on! Hee Hee. :) I suppose that's why I murdered my fish in college...I mean I didn't murder him/her I just forgot to feed him/her for like a week or so and then he/she died. Do fish REALLY have a gender? No. They are all just fish. Fish sex (sex like making love) would b...

Whoa! What a cool place this Mutinondo  was!  It is is a woodland, wilderness area NORTH EAST of Lusaka about 10 hours by bus. (Sorry about the yelling, that is a little shout out to my friend, you know who you are) (Also,  let me know if the link doesn't work) There were these gorgeous look-out points and mountains....well, large granite hills, but they were steep enough and we climbed up 2 of them. It took about 30 minutes to get to the top of each.  In the top video I'm reaching the top of the mountain!  You can hear our cool driver Mr. K cheering? :) me on!  These photos are in no order exactly, but I'll talk a little about each one! I think this one is on top of the first mountain, called Charlie's Rock This is horse poop (I know you are supposed to say scat in the wilderness, but I think horse poop is funnier. The place has some horses that we didn't ride) The view. Whoa. A little creature roaming around. He was furry and I wonder ...
