HARDLY WORKING

This  afternoon I made a pasta salad using the tomatoes I bought yesterday and some of the burp-less cucumber.  It seems to be as they say...burp-less cucumbers.  These Asian Cucumbers are very long, probably a foot long or more, solid and tasty.  I think just a few of these plants would produce a lot of cucumbers.  If...and I say if, I will plant some next year...if I plant.

I tossed out a few bad potatoes and they may be developing roots.  If they do I will put them in an old cardboard box, cover them, and see if they grow. If they start to grow and the season gets late, well, I have enough old windows in storage to make a little greenhouse for them.  The potatoes in the picture are the ones I dug up last week.  Of course, they are gone now, along with a nice juicy steak.

The book I am reading right now is THE ACCIDENTAL POPE.  It is a little far-fetched and highly improbable, but it is entertaining.  It is about an ex-priest, widower with children who "accidentally" becomes nominated to the Papacy.  It is a little dated, but at the same time it is timeless as history does repeat itself.  It is an interesting novel in the light of human foibles and errors.

I bought a one gallon jug of Dawn Detergent they other day.  It is slightly cheaper by buying it by the jug.  I then pour it into the smaller, empty Dawn bottle and set the big jug aside.  I may save about 20 cents, but I am more interested in saving time and trips to the store.

I have not bought bathroom tissue in months, but I have opened my last package, so it is time to start stocking up again.  I will not want to go out in the winter time.  I hope to start my re-stocking next month.

I guess tomorrow I will try to get the "lead out" and  get busy.  When I have a good book, all else fails.  Life takes a swing to the rear and I sit on my rear and read.  LOL!
