Monday, Monday.....

Another sunrise..... fortunately.      I try and change up  the days but they all feel like "Groundhog Day".

    

I'm starting to think of possibilities in a future closer than I had once thought..... Hope is a calming thing

.   

I'm working on more than dog hats and coats..... I made a pink hat  for Sophie, a wonderful Doodle, who sleeps patiently while her human mother cuts my hair.   Also have other projects going which will remain nameless for awhile.    But I did send off  masks to my sisters.   One has a new Corgi puppy, Ruby,  and the other has Charlie, a black and white cat.  

And then I made an enchilada style dish, layered like lasagna......   very  good and easier than rolling filled tortillas.     I used the sauteed  Beyond Beef , black beans, corn, peppers, onions ,corn tortillas, a hint of non-dairy cheese and  enchilada sauce.    We top it with fresh salsa, chopped greens and guacamole.     And lots of leftovers to eat or freeze for another day.   

 I'm approaching 700 total miles on my bike but it's a bit more challenging to ride with the lower  temperatures and mild winds.   And now snow tomorrow.  We got new helmets.    Costco had the best deal for highly rated ones and we gladly replaced our ancient ones.    They are supposed to protect our heads with MIPS technology (something about absorbing impact) but we haven't fallen, so don't know if they work !! 

We watched "The Queen's Gambit".   It did not make me want to play chess but I did like her clothes.   It was very good and different.      Started watching "My Octopus Teacher" but I'm not an underwater person and it was a bit creepy with all the swirling tentacles and strange creatures.   I think a 10 year old would love it.   I would prefer a bit more singing and dancing and romance.
