Isn't chocolate with high percentages of cacao good for you? That's what I've read, and because it suits me, I believe it!

One of my husband's culinary specialties is stir fried broccoli. He uses toasted sesame oil and lots of garlic, plus a little sugar to caramelize it. A quick stir in a hot cast iron skillet and, honey, it's bound to make a broccoli fan out of you!

I like chocolate.

I also like broccoli.

Fever broke sometime last night, though it has recently made another appearance. Not going to work tomorrow.

Not good news about the return of the fever. Girl, take care! Hope you knock it back soon.

Did you make your chicken and spinach soup?

I did. The first day I had zero desire for food and couldn't even finish it. I had some the next day and managed to finish it all. Haven't had any since, though partly because I have other soup that I had made before I got sick and I wanted to have some of that. I have also been eating things like toast because my stomach is pretty sensitive at the moment as well.

Here's how I spent most of the afternoon:

I don't think she stopped purring once and didn't even flinch when I coughed. Mrs. Parker, unfortunately, is a bit more skittish. She spends some time on my lap but leaps off if I move too much

Kitty love! The best medicine.

Get well soon!

We left earlier than we might have.
Dad got a text that several dogs were outside the fence. They had excavated a tunnel and had all come back inside by the time we got here. Made a fix for the tunnel.
About to have a shower and crash pretty hard.

No beach today for Gary. So maybe tomorrow. Mary Lou and Gary started working in the yard and pruned through beach time. But ... the grapes are prune ... all the grapes. Gary has a lot of grapes. Maggie and Gary just finished dinner, we’re watching the Olympics. Gary was admiring the German bobsled, yellow with black/red flames, zipping down the track when it flipped over and slid over the finish line ... sliding upside down, the occupants holding on tightly inside ... into first place. Gary loves the Olympics.

Sun came out an warmed up enough to give the truck a quick bath and clean the inside up, before the rain started up again.

Gary is sipping a Malibu Rocky Oak Cabernet Sauvignon. Surprisingly, it is quite drinkable. Recently, people have been starting growing grapes and making wine in the Santa Monica Mountains surrounding Malibu. Nothing epic, but it is Malibu ... and Malibu is wonderful.

We had some friends over for dinner and cards. They brought a bottle of Tobin James wine that was a lovely pairing with dinner.

I’m to bed late and up early in the morning to head to VT. I once was a pretty decent skier, but it’s been a couple of years. We’ll see how rusty I am tomorrow.

Mary Lou is a very good skier.

Another lovey day. It is noon and 70F out here. Gary may forgo all yard work/work/et al ...grab Mary Lou and Maggie and head out to the beach.

Your life reports always sound as if you do not have to work. But you DO work as I know and it is not central to your life. Great
