deep freeze

Saturday was the last first year eng exam so I was in the office helping with some difficulties that came up and running the copycheck.

Saturday night we had freezing rain but it was not as bad as it is sometimes so travel to Rustle on Sunday was not affected. Last Sunday of the year for us. It was not a big gathering but it was good to work through some things.

When I got home, I worked on some de-icing in preparation for the deep freeze and then took a nap while James was at hockey. I washed a lot of dishes, then when James got home I found he had NOT completed his English essay (he said he had). He had an outline but still a lot of work to do so we worked for a few hours on that.

My goal for the weekend had been to clean a room a day, but I did not accomplish that.

I have no plan for a meal tonight.

The temperature dropped overnight but now is snowing.

Catching up on some past meals:

African beef tagine was a very spicy beef stew with naan bread.

 Chicken burgers had chitpole peppers that made them VERY hot!

 The potato fries were easy to make and much better for you than real freis!

 There was enough salad left over to cover my lunch the next day.

 Sweet and sour turkey

 sauce (this was not very tangy- could have been amped up a bit)

 Sushi rice

 Turkey with red pepper and baby bok choy

Saturday:

 Sunday- I tried to show the frozen trees and the sun peeking from the clouds
