What an ordeal! I hope your dinner can be reheated. Don’t supposed it’s going to go bad out in the big fridge, at least.


Whoever it was who posted about having chili last night, I did indeed make my own. Brilliant choice! It’s currently absolutely frigid outside, which made getting my laundry in and out an ordeal (my bathroom utility space can only hold half my big laundry pair, so son ran power to the outside for the dryer and got me a protective cover that zips over it when not in use), but Sarasota is currently super windy, rainy, and we’ve had reports of FLURRIES to the north of us.Spent an hour out there besides trying to set up a shelter for our outdoor cat (a feral we love but who can’t come inside because we have four parrots and two indoor cats, and she’s a fearsome hunter and has already been traumatized when we tried to bring her in out of a hurricane).

But I digress. Chili. Mess of pinto and black beans, roasted corn, jalapeños, and half a bag of Quorn (meatless) nuggets for good measure, some fresh tortilla chips for dipping, and I’m in heaven.
