Mundane Monday
A somewhat typical evening...
My son and I planned for a pizza dinner. Usually he and I have a
manic first day of the work week full of problems-a-plenty, warranting
solutions-a-simple. He likes his pizza plain, whereas I am about
the toppings. We are both particular about the pizza dough.
For my son, the issue is about taste and texture. While he has not
the wherewithal to know the exact combination of spices, the crispness
of the dough has to be somewhere between a heated bagel and a piece
of toast. For me, the issue is all about the flour. There must be
little to no semolina (durum) used in the dough. Semolina is high
in carbohydrates. One durum slice can cause my blood sugar to skyrocket.
The crust alone can double the count.
Nevertheless, we voraciously enjoyed our dinner, after which he
completed his homework before vitamin, ice cream and hot chocolate.
I had coffee and tea (mulberry). There were few dishes for me to
wash, only those from breakfast. The day concluded with a ninety-minute
wind down: TV, bath, debrief/story with mommy, some silent reading
before bed.
Mundanity in the best-est. |

A Crank's Callings
I spent most of Wednesday being cranky. From the time I had awakened through the time I went to bed, before and after work, I seemed to made a quite mess of things [non-mentionable] rather quickly.
That evening, I started to log the ingredient combinations from the last two months, while attentively watching TV, then internet video (IV). I did not begin to progress in scribing the documentation until this early morning. Then I had the urge to snack, which I needed to hold-off until my regularly scheduled breakfast feed. I held-off by scavenging my refrigerator and creating another recipe.

To cook, I rummaged through the sink to find pans, utensils and lids.
This evening (Thursday), I will need to clean--and get back to the
IV, and continue logging my ingredient combinations....TGIF??? |
