Aged hippie on the left coast of Canada. Garden, quilt, cook, read, write, volunteer.
8pm as I write. So the clock says. Feels like midnight. Why does one lousy hour make such a difference? This is the easy one - an extra hour to sleep in - what's not to like? Voting if anybody cares to get rid of DST so we don't have to do this every six months.

Chicken bbq tonite with the last of the mesquite chips. Gonna miss mesquite. Learned of it when we visited Napa Valley in 1984. Not buying them anymore. Just one Canadian who loved visiting Calif. Yr tainted with the same brush. Sorry.

Took an inordinate amount of time to find this clip. Best interpretation of this song IMO. I needed it tonight. Hope it brings some comfort to others too.

Fettuccini tonite with fresh tomato sauce (ripest of the backlog used!) + buns in the air fryer. Still 30ish degrees today but managed to make an indoor meal. Win.

May have started too many tomatoes for a 2 person household.
xtended fam will be getting spaghetti sauce, chili base & what Brian calls 'burnt tomatoes' = cherries+ honeybunch minis in the air fryer with garlic for pizza base all winter

Fruit fly season! Head's up wine drinkers. Just tossed a full glass with four of the little rotters in it. Somebody needs to invent a window/door screen with a wee bit smaller mesh. They flew right past my trap of apple cider & dish soap. Google says they like that best. Wrong. They prefer wine.

Mesquite smoked chicken. Baby potatoes. Carrots. Broccoli. Lettuce + scallions with sour cream dressing. All but the chicken grown on site.

Talking to myself: fresh out of the shower. How many actually rinse and repeat with the shampoo? Always seemed like a marketing gimmick. Hair seems fluffy enough after one application. Any feedback?

Notice on my phone: I can accept the AI update now or wait until it's automatically added. Will summarize my emails for me. Like how do you summarize "See ya then" "Invoice attached" or "WTF?" which is most of them.

Cardinal clematis putting on a show. The double white is a bit unclear on the trellis concept. Still pretty but makes me cringe to the right when looking at it. Maybe a bit OCD?

Pink clematis putting on quite a show this year. She was supposed to grow over the utility infrastructure but didn't get the memo. I've forgiven her.

Haven't watched Star Wars for while. Isn't the red light saber the one the villain used?
