rorqualI don't know how this happened, but somewhere along the line, I decided I need to do the following today:
1 - Bake an apple galette (sort of a rustic tart - I haven't made one before but it seems pretty straightforward)
2 - Make applesauce (because I want applesauce, and because someone brought me soup the other day, and I wanted to give something back when I gave the tupperware back)
3 - Make soup (an Irish cheese soup, though I think over the week I've eaten most of the cheese. But there's potatoes and leeks and carrots too, so I think there will be enough stuff in the soup)
4 - Clean the ferrets' room (done)
5 - Do laundry (in process)
6 - Finish updating some stuff on Brigit (poor neglected Brigit)
It's really the cooking that's a bit out of hand. Applesauce is the least important, but the easiest. The galette is the most challenging (since I haven't done one before), but I promised it to someone. And the soup is what I will eat this week. And laundry is laundry. I think Brigit may get overlooked...again. I now live in a house with four internet-capable devices, so it's inevitable one will fall behind. I don't know how people with multiple kids manage.
I also need to dig up my spare wi-fi router, so I can take it home with me for Thanksgiving and upgrade my mom's system. Just because she lives in the country, doesn't mean she has to live in the dark ages.
Other than that - it's a beautiful day; I have the door to the porch open because it's so sunny, and I am waiting for the sun to come into the upstairs hall at the right angle so I can hang a new picture I have. I guess I should put that on the list.
My butter is almost room temp, so I am going to go peel apples.
