Today, so far, I/we (T & I) have:
* Pulled the chest freezer out from the garage, thawed it, and cleaned up the exploded apple goo from the bottom (Cider jugs have a variable amount of headspace. Sometimes it's not enough.)
* Run a batch of tiny apples from the Spare Trees through the squeezo set up on the mixer (T. chopped 'em and put 'em to boil a couple days ago)
* Boiled down the last of the pico de gallo from the company picnic into a passable tomato sauce & froze that
* Picked more tiny apples
(* took a nap)
(* Had a very tasty fried egg & jowl bacon w/ pico de gallo & chives for breakfast and very nice not-at-all-traditional latkes w/ more chives and sour cream for lunch)
* cut new supports for the mailbox front out of plastic wood
* Made a sour cream apple coffee cake (it's currently in the oven) (
this recipe) with sour cream from the company picnic
(The company picnic was catered by Moe's. Next up are fried cinnamon-and-sugar tortilla chips...)
* Wrote
an Aunt Family Piece for
kelkyag/Patreon & created
a Canva picture for it, though it's not my favorite design.
Next up:
* Pick more apples, take a walk, write the last kitty Patreon piece for the month, do some Day Job, maybe do some Edally & This Other Project Thing writing. Have dinner, hang out with husband, pet cats.
* Clean up the kitchen, put the freezer back in the barn
