July 14, 2006

We are still toying with the idea of going off grid here and I just came across this interesting wind calculator. I do not know how well this calculator works yet, but thought it was noteworthy enough to pass along. It opens weird, but it works. Rain Rain Rain Rain here.. we went from one extreme to the other. We have running streams of water running down the driveway and 3 pools in the middle of my new lawn. THAT will be needing to be remedied and slope it down a tidge to the ravine.

I am taking it easy today. I can feel myself getting run down. I am chilled as well. I have entertained the idea of lighting a small fire in the woodstove, but my brain keeps thinking "But it is July!!".. still I am chilled and not keen on taking a bath until it warms up. I think I will drag out my hot water bottle though.

I am thinking on Chicken Cordon Bleu for dinner, but then I am also thinking on something different like Lemon & Almonds, but I also got this HOT & SPICY cookbook at the thrift shoppe yesterday that I may just poke into and see if there is anything exciting for dinner tonight. I think spicy is something which may warm me up. The garden is loving all this water and my Purple beans are blooming. Peas are ready to pick this week I think. Onions are growing great and I was a looser with not hilling my potatoes this year. We shall see what I get. My herbs are showboating however. I love my Basils!!
