Mountain Climbing
They removed the ancient escalators that kept breaking down and replaced them with a whole bunch of stairs. This is actually a huge improvement, because every time the escalators were out of order, that entire entrance/exit had to be closed off, which limited access to the department I work in.
Hark! A Doodle!
I watched too much TV this weekend, but at least I did some doodling while sitting on my ass.
Also? Gordon came for a visit. The lower lip of that cart is knee-high on me. All that rain fell over the course of about 24 hours.
Pardina Lentils
These have become my favorite lentils.
I cooked them in the Instant Pot, then made veggie patties after mixing with rice, thinly sliced green onion and celery, grated carrot, garlic, and an egg. You could easily make it vegan by using flax “eggs” instead of chicken eggs. And you can use whatever veggies you like. That’s just what I had on hand.
They were super tasty!
New Project
I got a bunch of little 6 x 6 inch canvas boards to play with.
It’s Hives Season
I dont know what Thomas is allergic to, but it appears to be seasonal. I double checked dates, and it was the end of August/beginning of September last year, when he had a terrible outbreak of hives.
Poor biscuit. I was giving him Benadryl, but switched him to Zyrtec last night. That actually seems to be working a bit better. I really don’t want to have to give him steroids if I don’t have to, but I have a supply just in case. (And yes, I consulted his vet about all of this.)
At the Vet
Facebook Memories tells me that this happened the same time, last year. There must be something blooming or in the environment that he’s reacting to. Ragweed, maybe? It’s certainly making me miserable.
Pen Graveyard
I’ve gone through a bunch of pens lately.
Art Cart
I’d been wanting a cart for art supplies, to keep by my desk. I finally found one that would work, at Target.
Go Krogering
Kroger gives zero effs for logical bag placement.
