March Forth....
and be productive or something. Today, some sunshine and 40's, was a tease (weather-wise) because tonight/tomorrow we will have cold temperatures and either rain or snow. But the rest of the week warms up until we see 60 on Friday. I managed to get my deliveries made and some errands run after school. We had vegetable chowder for our Meatless Monday. It was pretty good, and easy. A combination of fresh vegetables and canned, with some milk & cheese to round it out. It was filling without being heavy; a tad bland however. And we'll do Fish Friday. At the risk of being politically incorrect, I might start having Wop Wednesday. There are lots of good Italian dishes out there. With any luck, it would be left-overs for Tuesday & Thursday. Of course weekends are a whole 'nuther animal.
Work was work. Busy but pretty routine. 3 or 4 of the 5th grade classes will be on field trips each day the rest of the week. Going to St. Louis Science Center.
Listening to Joan Baez. Dennis is watching "Are you Tougher than a Boy Scout" on the Nat. Geo channel. Don't know if he's rooting for the scouts or the old farts adults.
I made a prioritized list of things that need to be done before we leave for Spring Break. I included a massage for the last Wednesday.
The Blood of Free Men is extremely interesting. I had no idea how much "fear of Communists" influenced political/military thinking during WWII. It certainly explains how McCarthy got his foothold of power post WWII.
The cats have been "into it" tonight. Lots of romping around chasing each other. I don't think either one has had claws out. No hissing or growling either. Pretty amusing. Lucas watches with his dignified "I am a Poodle" look on his face.

I'd love to be there on Wop Wednesday.
We just put tons of garlic and/or fresh ginger in just about anything. Maybe a bunch of basil or oregano would be good in a veg chowder. I like eating meat-free. I always feel so much better after a veggie meal!
