Baby, It's Cold Outside
At about twenty degrees with the wind chill,
winter has settled back in. We've been stoking the fireplace every night, and
hopefully another few windy days will dry out the wood more - the weeks of
pounding rain made even the covered wood pretty damp.
I'm up and about a bit more - tomorrow I am attempting a *short* drive, and I only took one painkiller today. My plan is to go back to work on Friday, so we'll see. E and friends pick up the wood stove on Thursday night, and on Saturday Dharma's new family pick her up - they're thrilled, and I'm going to spend some time showing them how to trim her hooves, etc. since she'll be their first goat. All the other Nigerians are sold, but won't be picked up for another few weeks.
Tonight I cut the rinds off the remaining box o'grapefruit and blanched them twice, then salted them down. I'll rinse them off tonight and tomorrow try candying them. The plan is to dip them in dark chocolate and bag them up for Valentine's Day. If I'm cooking, things must be getting a little bit back to normal :)
