It's been a while since I posted. I. recently spent a good deal of time dictating a post about gardening with impaired vision. It was a long, detailed post. I had included not only specific plants and their growth habits, but also criteria to follow to when looking for plants if you have impaired vision.
I had the draft to the point that it was ready for my husband to edit, and I somehow managed to lose the entire post. I spent a good deal of time trying to retrieve it--to no avail. I just couldn't get up the gumption to try to re-create it, and have not even looked at my computer for days and days. But I'm beginning to recover and have decided to go on to something else.
For Eastern I had the fun of putting together a menu for dinner. For me, putting together the menu is more fun than the actual cooking and serving if the dinner. Nowadays by the time I get the meal cooked, Im too tired to enjoy it.
On Easter the main appetizer was seared tuna with a sauce. The main course was corned beef braised in beer and a cauliflower-and-parsnip mash served with steamed asparagus and a purple cabbage slaw. For dessert I had homemade ice cream and huckleberry pie.
When
I was discussing with a friend how much I like to plan menus,.she said she did
the same. Also every year she planned
her own birthday party. Everything from
the table settings to the menu. And she
has never had the party--just planned it.
I
think that sounds like a great idea. My
birthday is coming up in a couple months. I'm going to plan a fantastic party. And not invite anybody. I'll have all the fun of tweaking a menu and
none of the work preparing it.
