I'm not sure if it's because of the constant rainy weather, or not having my own car, or having a lingering cold, or just not having Chaz around, but for the last ten days or so I've burrowed into my shell and not done anything beyond go to work, watch TV/play WoW, or otherwise goof off. My cold seems to be gone now, though, and I have my car back. I actually went to the grocery store today, to buy some meat to go with the new CSA vegetables. I'm ready for the constant chard to stop coming, but Chaz figured out how to make the salad dressing I like from DishDash, so I'll start eating salads again. (I don't like standard salads that are just a pile of vegetables with goop dropped on it. The DishDash salads are tossed, with an interesting set of tastes that I can now mostly make.) I have a story I need to finish this weekend, that I made some progress on this week and this morning, so that's the major part of my agenda. Dymphna is running around keeping me company, and I bought cookies and chips at the store (yes, I'm ignoring WW too right now). And tomorrow it's supposed to be sunny. I hope that doesn't mean it will snow in Newcastle.

We could invite you over, but it's been raining so hard, the birds have been swimming in the trees (I stole that line from Tanith Lee--isn't it brilliant?)

My solution to too much in the way of chard and beet greens and so on has been soup. That way I can freeze the soup and save it for much later, instead of getting completely sick of chard.

Dymph "running around!"

I'm working also on that salad concept: salad as main dish, rather than a bunch of leaves with some kind of vinegar and oil toss.

It's too bad that we'll be leaving here just at the time this concept would be feasible in terms of cost and availability. In NYC, neither cost nor availability makes sense. Down here, just buying the greens in the supermarket -- they are very, very, very good, because, well they're grown here. In NYC, no matter how expensive and organic and all the rest -- no flavor. Ugh.

Love, C.

It's not quite cold enough to snow. But I did walk out of the house this evening and go "brrr!" and come back in for my nice jacket.

Chard... Do you have a local friend with guinea pigs? If so, guineas love chard. ;)

Make chard chips in your oven, do them just like the Kale ones. They are tasty!
