f&f, mom and caa, quaker notes, bread notes, the solution

I so want to have a pity party for myself. I'll just say: lousy sleep, elephants, Mom & Dad.

Delights:

* I'm now clerk of meeting. ( Quaker stuff )

* Friday night chat with my sister about working together on some sort of environmental/plant gig went well, building enthusiasm. I was right in my perception that she was not finding time or energy to think about the future but was focused on the many projects at hand. Which is good! The right place for focus! But without looking at a map once in a while, you might not get where you want to go.

* I've a new gardening basket (i just need to find a ring knife to replace the one i think i threw out with the previous basket when Marlowe ... contaminated it).

* I might have a better bread recipe, and Hans the rye sourdough starter may be in good condition.

* I made dumplings/gnocchi/knoephla with left over sour dough starter (and eggs and flour), and they are comforting. My dried mustard greens are doing well in soups. And while it sounds odd, they mix well with the dried tomato.
