Notes from Caturday Morning

[elainegrey]

We don't have anything particular on our calendars today, so i think i'm already participating in the time change.

After time poking at the computer while in bed, we got up and Christine made breakfast while i cued up a half hour of video podcasts. Frederator, an animation podcast, contains far less animation than it used to. We pad out the half hour with a craft vlog and arts vlogs, but i think i need to find a better animation vlog.

We watched a GIS lecture from iTunes U that was painfully ... raw, a screen cast of how to complete a homework assignment using ESRI ArcMap. There are a number of other GIS lectures in the iTunes U catalog so we'll audit those over time.

I went on to listen to a recorded work presentation and crocheted a ring for Christine as a test of the concept. Eventually i'll get a photo and post to flickr and ravelry.

I'm now baking my veat for the week: Walnut Oatmeal Quinoa Veatloaf

1/2 cup walnuts << coarsely chopped
2 TB olive oil
One onion, diced << skipped, after thinking about it
Two celery ribs, diced << used three
2 cups mashed firm tofu << last attempt's use of silken was more mushy
1 cup cooked quinoa << used 1/2 cup uncooked
1/4 to 1/2 cup vegetable broth, as needed << none needed
1/2 cup cooked oatmeal << actually used closer to 2 c of Christine's breakfast with raisins, bananas, and vanilla
2 TB nutritional yeast flakes << also flaxseed meal
2 TB ketchup << tomato paste and molasses, more than 2 tbs
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 tsp. salt

It's finally cleared. The morning marine layer took forever to burn off.

With the vearloaf baking, what do i get to eat *now*?
