It's Friday and raining here for the 3rd day in a row. Ugh! My co-workers and I have already decided we should a) build an obstacle course in the forest outside, b) play crab soccer at lunchtime - which I demonstrated down the hall for someone who hadn't heard of it, or c) go watch a "nature" special and eat popcorn on someone's couch (If we can find one about oceans, it's sort of relevant to our work, right?). The boss is almost ready to give in, I can feel it. Oh, is it only 8:30? Sigh.
Allison, I hadn't thought about the guano, but I plan to put my bat box enough away from buildings that I don't think that will be a concern. Actually I convinced our shop guys to build a few to put up at different sites around our office/island we manage. They just finished making them, but with the rain his week there have been many lightning storms. I didn't think it would be smart to stand on top of a tall metal ladder, so I'll have to wait until next week to put them up. I am really sad that I had the guys build me a rotating barrel composter for work (I have one at home, but I thought we should compost at work too) and yesterday I found maggots in it. Gross! I've got to clean it out and start over.
Shannon, I'm glad that your veggies turned out well. I've used the following website for jam and jelly recipes. They describe
how to freeze summer squash. Robin, actually I've been wanting to thank you for your ode to roasted vegetables a few weeks ago - broccoli, if I remember correctly. I had sort of "forgotten" roasting as a cooking method and started roasting all the green beans coming out of my garden. Delicious!
Speaking of roasted veggies I made the most delicious
grilled veggie salad last night for dinner. I really wanted to eat the entire thing (but just ate a serving). BF was also a big fan.
Michele, WTG making good choices at the bridal shower! How long will it take to do the inventory? Hang in there!
Dagmar, hope the dog-sit goes well.
Ooh, Robin, those egg rolls do look good! What did you serve with them? A cooked cabbage salad would be yummy...
Hi everyone! Happy Friday! I've actually got to do some work...
