stuff and nonsense
took friday off
of course
that made me think
saturday was sunday
usually
that sort of kerfuffle
happens at the end of may
when my fridaycations begin
this year
passover and easter happen simultaneously
with
good friday and the first night of passover
on the same day/evening
we dont really celebrate passover
tho
i always buy a small box of matzoh
occasionally
i indulge with a log of sweet gefilte fish
some strong red horseradish
i like both
tho
not more than once a year
speaking of food
notice the graceful segue
i came across a website called
they take veggies like
sweet potato beets zucchini carrots rutabaga turnip
run them through a pasta maker
so they become long noodles
but
there's no gluten involved
so far
i have had the zucchini not bad but not as good as the sweet potato
i still have the beet to try
they have a 14 day from purchase freshness guarantee
by the way
no one paid me
or
gave me free samples
to say nice things about
found them
on my own
bought them
decided they were yummy enough
to tell you about
tho
i am sure there are those among you
who could make these noodles yourself
not me
i thought about taking a photo
last night
after i finished the easy prep they need
but
no
i ate the whole mess
without stopping
for a photograph
anyway
yum
the apple photo beta program
i have been participating in
must be coming close to roll out
because
there were two upgrades this past week
causing me to have duplicate photos
not a function of the upgrade
so much
as it being due
to
my impatience
and
emailing myself photos
that didnt automatically
populate
photo app on my iMac
with
photos taken on my iphone
and
vice verse
if i ever do another beta test
i will remember
patience is necessary
another
interesting to me
outcome of the near completion of the beta
is that my weather app
now adjusts
the date on the weather
to match the meta date on the photo
being me
i found a way round it
i know none of this is stuff you care about
so
i won't explain it here
if you care to know email me
what else
errands on friday
after the dermatologist appointment
which was illuminating
i learned
we dont just lose fat in our faces
we also lose bone
those no longer full cheeks
are gone
because of both
not just one
that is
if you ever had a full face
i didnt
tho
my cheek bones are less prominent
i walked a lot on friday
almost a much as i do
when i am at the office
thats almost 3 miles a day
with no effort exerted at all
saturday
i walked even more
having to do a few more errands
i didnt do
because
it was raining friday
saturday
was dry
oh my good golly
it was cold
there was a wind
that was strong enough
to make you feel
you could be knocked over
at some intersections
like
west end avenue
a wind tunnel
even on slightly windy days
icy cold to boot
brrr
sunday
marked the first day of easter
sunny wind free with temps
teasing
of
real spring
but
not quite making it all the way
lets hope this week we finally make it to spring for real
