Sunday, Sunday


The cat has been in the same spot by the window all morning, even though it is a cloudy day. Maybe the UV rays do something for her.

I am having a great Sunday, mostly because there is not much to do. Only:

1) Write a birthday card
2) Nose around on Facebook
3) Run some old bills through a paper shredder
4) Clip recipes out of old food magazines and arrange them in this order.
  • Soups, like balsamic-tomato soup and cold zucchini-and-cucumber soup.
  • Light starter-type things like fried eggs on asparagus, bruschetta with fava beans, grilled bitter greens salad
  • Comfort foods like lobster macaroni and shepherd's pie
  • Elaborate seafood and meats, like steamed mussels with sausages and fennel and roast pork loin with Italian salsa verde, which is different from Mexican salsa

Notice that there are no desserts on this list. I just can't get excited about making desserts.

Her name is Mini! Because she was so small as a kitten, with a tiny little square face. Sometimes she also goes by Minicat. =)

Cute, luxurious kitty!

Thanks, Laura from Portland!

Y. -- The lobster macaroni recipe starts with live lobsters as the first ingredient. So needless to say, I haven't tried it yet. But like most recipes, it's almost satisfying just reading it. Almost.
