A Little Bit of This and a Little Bit of That - It's One of Those Days


Today is going to be a bit of here and there. Fortunately, this is the "Winter when Snow Never Came", so driving won't be a hassle. Although it's been cold enough to freeze, we haven't had misting or enough moisture to cause ice problems on the roadways, and our snow is nonexistent! It's so weird to be looking outside in early February and see green grass. I'm quite sure our flower bulbs are horribly confused right about now - their cozy winter retreat and nap is getting interrupted. DH is already worried about his garden. 




I'm going to feel a bit like a honey bee today - going here, then 
there, then back again, then around, and then back once more. 
Honey bees are quite amazing - they cover a LOT of ground 
in their flights for pollen. 



I'm only worried about my schedule - which is a bit wonky today. I ordered a printer cartridge for the store's copier/printer yesterday and was supposed to pick it up last night. But I forgot, so I have to pick that up today. That store opens at 8:00 am. I also realized that I'm almost completely out of some flavors of tea that I love, so I need replacements. These can only be obtained from one specific grocery store that carries all of the varieties from this particular tea purveyor. Fortunately, they open at 6:00 am, so I can start my day our there, then go on to pick up the cartridge and then onward to my normal grocery store for fresh vegetables. 




I have a bunch of things to do today, but can't quite get 
all of my thoughts in order. I must need more tea to get 
a handle on my schedule and make sure I don't forget anything. 



I know I have a bunch of other things to do today, but they haven't coalesced in my head quite yet. I know I need to make my "Ogre Juice" (vegetable alkagizer) portions for next week, and I have a butternut squash that I want to bake. Both things are quite easy and won't take up much time at all. But I have a BUNCH of other things I have to do on the computer - both the desktop and the laptop. I won't be bored - LOL. 




Roast butternut squash is one of my favorite things 
to make and eat during the fall/winter months. It's 
so easy and quick, and tastes fantastic. One squash 
gives me multiple portions, easily enough to last for 
a week, sometimes a bit more. 



So I hope all of you have a magnificent Friday. May the weather and the roads be your friend today, and may everyone you meet, greet you with a smile of welcome. Enjoy your day and I'll be back tomorrow. Slava Ukraini and חיים למען ישראל.
