my least favorite part of the year

it always seems like *everyone* is going on about fall and cool weather and here?

It's 97 degrees and humid and we've got at least another month of the Dog Days. :P

It doesn't help that I'm not feeling well, I guess. But still, this is my least favorite part of the year ;-)

On the good side, I was *desperately* craving Vietnamese food and, because I haven't found a good Pho restaurant on my end of town, L and L and I went to have teppenyaki. It was very good - fresh and clean, easy-easy on the stomach (which I needed), and comforting somehow.

I maintain that there are few physical ailments that miso soup can't help.

*ponders*

*add miso soup to the list of food I want to learn to make*

Raviolis are on that list, and apple dumplings. Egg rolls. Flour tortillas like Terrie made.

I've figured out fried chicken, pecan pie and dinner rolls (which, along with mashed potatoes (which, weirdly enough I screw up seven times out of ten) are the things Mother makes that took me a while).

Lorna can make pie crust and meat sauce, so I don't have to learn.

Oh, by-the-by, scrambled eggs with tomatillos? *Not* sucktastic. I owe the husband an apology...

    I've never been a fan of miso soup.

    I've always wanted to learn to make ravioli. How do you screw up mashed potatoes? LOL
