dalthauser* I got impatient yesterday and opened up a Pomegranate. (Marcel gave me a disapproving look). It wasn't ready. The little seeds were formed and plump, but they were just now beginning to turn red. I ate some, and they did taste pretty good - considerng. Can't wait until October or November.
* I will get an extra long holiday weekend. I am switching my half day with a friend (I'll work her Sunday this weekend - she'll work my Saturday next), so I will be off Friday evening through Tuesday morning. Yay!!! I'm drivin' down to Corpus to hang with my honey. Sierra will have her boy-toy with her at the house for the weekend, so (hopefully) the chickens will get fed and garden watered (crossing fingers).
* I think I made a post once about a wine called Gruner Veltliner. I found an article about it in an old culinary magazine and my interest was aroused (I'm so easy). I did some online research and got even more excited (I said I was easy....). I've never been a wine buff or even all that interested, but for some reason reading this article captured my attention. Since I learned about it, every time I go to a wine section I've looked for it. No luck until Sunday. I found it at Whole Foods, and Marcel bought me a bottle. We drank it with dinner (Mustard/Curry tofu w/ brown rice and wilted Dandelion green salad......).
* We are toying with the idea of renting out (or selling - but in this market doubtful) the New Braunfels house and me moving down South. There is so much that would need to be considered before that happened - but the idea is there (and it's being toyed with....) :-)
Oh yeah - it rained last night (yay)

Date: 2009-08-29 01:29 pm (UTC)I think we're pretty sure we aren't going to try and sell the New Braunfels house. Mostly because we'd have to put a ton of money into making it sellable (is that a word?). More likely we'll rent it and have the option of returning someday.
