Good Chance Of Rain Today

 Yes, a good chance of rain and also very mild temperatures. This early part of December, 2022, has not been bad at all. I've had good evenings on the patio with a glass of wine. Some essential work inside the house was accomplished yesterday, and I paid professionals to do it. It was worth it.

Terrific Weather!

 I hope I won't have to see stuff like "polar vortex" and "bomb cyclone" in our forecasts this winter. I've had enough of that. Maybe we will have a little rain tomorrow. That'll be OK.

Lentils And Rice

 I stocked up on lentils and rice during the heaviest part of the pandemic, when everything looked very uncertain and now I intend to use that stuff. Fortunately, lentil and rice dishes, are quick and easy to prepare and there are lots of seasoning options and one can add stuff like red onion, bell pepper, carrots, tomatoes and so on. Lots of fiber and protein. And there are topping options, like plain yogurt or fried onions, or fried onions AND yogurt. You could stir in chickpeas or humus. And the stuff goes well with fish. I like kippered herring on the side. Yesterday's meal was very good. I might do it again today, with other seasonings. You could stuff pita bread with lentils and rice, with feta cheese added. Sour cream? So many options.

It's All Loony

 Virtually every aspect of human life seems rather loony when you think about it. But crazy should be fun, rather than serious. Odds are, only mathematicians are truly rational, but only when they are actually DOING math. On the other hand, AI is scary because it is completely rule-driven and without a scrap of emotion. Mathematicians find beauty in their work. No AI will ever find beauty in anything. 










Today I had a craving for lentils and brown rice, with onion and tomato and oregano and Cajun seasoning mix. Don't forget the garlic and EVO. I plan to have this with fish and I'll baste the fish with a Korean spicy stir fry sauce.
