missdianeJust randomness:
I went to all the trouble of getting a few pretty plants at the plant sale on campus and I potted them in the big urn looking pot thingie at the bottom of the steps at the house. The next morning? GONE. Evidently the deer went "OOO, SALAD!" and just ONNOMNOMed it. Guys, seriously? You couldn't let me enjoy it a while? Hmph. Well, not this year but maybe next year if I get into the gardening thing (aside from the pots on the back porch that I hope the deer don't go up the ramp), I saw on the list of deer resistant plants that they don't seem to like a lot of herbs. Well hey, I do like herbs and they're useful so the front yard splotch next to the steps might just become a small herb garden. Silly deerses.
Moving offices at the same time as moving house is tiring. Still have a long way to go with the house but the bedroom closet guts have been replaced, Ikea furniture is being steadily built and I'm taking over bags of random stuff about each day. I should see if I can figure out when I can actually clear enough to schedule movers and junk collectors for the big stuff. Still aiming before the end of the month in the hopes of beating the worst of the summer heat.
How to make simple carbs like white rice and pasta healthier? Chill it! Well hey, it is about the season for pasta and potato salads and I do like to cook rice in batches for later consumption.
Ok, back to work. I so tired.
