Black bean soup finished with lime juice

Image
 Any darn fool, or anyone with basic kitchen skills, can do most of this. The key insight is the lime juice at the end. One weird note: in college, I thought that boiling black beans just SMELLED REALLY WEIRD. NOw I barely notice. Curiously, no mention of fresh cilantro which, for people who like cilantro, would also be a lovely finish. 6.0 hours of blessed SLEEP. And apparently the various chair exercises and dishwashing were helpful for sleep even without more walking. I decided I had to go to bed when I started up writing about what I think of an Iranian attack on Israel's Dimona reactor and realized that I needed to let it percolate overnight if only so total inarticulate mush is not what comes off my fingers. And tonight I will try to brief and QUITE PROCRASTINATING about my resolutions presentation.

Larry the Downing Street Cat: 19th Birthday Vid

Image
Oh heck. A nice cat vid amid all the world's CRAZINESS  Video best appreciated by people with fully working eyes, but hey, it's a birthday vid. There are other Larry the Cat videos with more descriptive audio 4+ hours of sleep even though the CPAP quit after not quite 3 hours. I got half of laundry done last night. I think I am glad I did not attempt more but this fatigue thing SUCKS. I am a grownup. No one just now made me watch 20 minutes of raw video drama aboard a bus route I ride fairly often. Surprising that no info has appeared in my usual warning streams.

What Happens When You Bake Einkorn Bread Like Medieval Peasants Did

    I do not remember  watching this whole video but it's in my preparing for possible collapse of.... mental space 5:16 hours of sleep. I have more words on my mind so I either go do laundry or get breathless typing and let the laundry ferment another day.  Isn't adulting fun?!?!

 Several Seattle trivia items one sometimes needs 4:34 hours of sleep. Not enough and I should have gone back to bed after getting properly hydrated. Also gorgeous sun and I did not spend nearly enough time out in it. Manana

Kyrie Orbis...Chant

Image
 I didn't even look up the translation of this chant but maybe some chant will be a good thing for the day as the world is on pins and needles about the latest threats from President #StableGenius 5:12 hours of sleep. The Amazon order, BOTH parts arrived close to the beginning of the window so I did not have to worry about ice cream melting all afternoon. Of course, if one decides that ice cream is a vital addition to lunch, that can be another way not to worry about it melting inappropriately. Bananas arrived unscathed but of course too ripe. Such first world problems

Christian larsson: God's Gonna Cut you down

Image
Not one of my favorite covers, but I still need the earworm of the week.  5:12 hours of sleep. I am a grownup about staying up past when it would be reasonable to be in bed, but I did not have a fixed timeline today. Still vexing that I rarely seem to be able to crack 6 let alone 7 hours of sleep. BEAUTIFUL, sunny and WARM. So no excuse really for not getting out but I did not get out and I will write / procrastinate some more about all the things getting in the way. At least I cleaned up the stove baking soda mix.

Adobe! Why don't building codes include it.

Image
The latest in my let's think about old ways of doing thing in case modern civilization collapses videos.  5:22 hours of sleep. Theoretically up early enough to make it to Mom's church but it did not happen so instead it was WAY too much amp with sister and entourage at her church. Followed by curry and a nap at home. Beautiful day but legs were not happy in dress shoes. I want to see whether I can build back up to pre pandemic enthusiasm for walking.
