Found Some Mojo

I was awake at 7.30am but did not rise until 9.30am - you know why (refer to yesterday’s post).

I took Harley straight out to play.

He is so patient with me in the mornings. We are usually in bed between 7.30-8.30pm so that means he is in his bed for 12-14 hours and never complains, just waits patiently for me to get moving.

As a reward, we go straight out to the pool area for at least 30 mins of play. It’s his favourite thing to do.

I watered the garden and checked to see if I had any potatoes growing in the basket. I found a good sized potato near the top, but they won’t be ready for another 4-5 weeks. 

I can’t wait!

The trike was calling out to me, so once again, I made myself presentable and off I went, running into the same neighbour as yesterday!

I rode for 45 minutes, inspecting one of the new estates on the other side of town and enjoying the gale force conditions - it’s so much easier to pedal against the wind when you have power at your feet!

I stopped at the shops to order coffees and grab some chicken thighs because I was going to spend time in the kitchen making chicken parmies.

It was exactly an hour after I left, when I rode through our gates. 

After Harley cuddles, I went straight to the kitchen where I crumbed 12 chicken thighs to freeze for future meals. There were 12 nuggets of chicken that I removed from those thighs and I crumbed and shallow fried them for my lunch.

I enjoyed 8 of them and generously offered the rest to Adoring Husband who had been mowing lawns all morning.

I also stewed some apple, fresh ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice and maple syrup to make apple strudel for tomorrow nights dessert.

AH and I watched the Clint Eastwood movie “Pale Rider” while we ate lunch. An oldie but a goodie.

There were two hours to kill before the football, so I got productive in the artspace making earrings and finishing one of the extra large bracelets.

I watched the football and was grateful that Tigers helped partially rescue my footy tipping week by defeating the Titans 36-28.

It was ‘spaghetti Sunday’ so spaghetti bolognese sauce out of the freezer - easy peasy.

Farmer Wants a Wife and then bed.

Time to sleep now.

Nite all.
