Monday - Hot and Sunny
A good day.
I got up around 9 this morning and had a relaxing time watching my show, drinking tea and just vegging! After it was over I made the bed and then worked out a little. I had a good workout today.
I took my shower in the early afternoon and had lunch too. F had made bread overnight and it was good. He put some shiso in the bread and when I toasted it, the shiso was lovely. This was one experiment that worked!
I worked a bit on my Journal article today. I wrote a bit, but I also did some research on it too. Yay me.
I cooked dinner for us tonight. We had the leftover nama pasta and sauce, plus bacon and salad. We’d only been able to get shredded cabbage last night, so I grated one of the carrots and added that to the salad. It was good. Dinner was much nicer than I expected.
F did the dishes and we settled in for a nice night. I noticed that The Italian Job was on NHK tonight, so I watched that. F watched it for a bit too. It was the remake with Jason Statham. I had seen it before, but it was before I really knew who Jason was! Plus, he had hair back then. It was fun. I did some crochet during it and even finished up all of my brown squares. Yay me. I just have to finish darning in their ends now. Boo!
I managed to wake F up to go and have a bath and now we’ve been sitting up on our mutual computers chatting a bit and getting ready for going to bed. I’m not sure what I’m going to get up to, but I’m inviting you to come back and find out. Until tomorrow….

I would never have thought to put shiso in bread. Rosemary and other italian-y herbs, yes, but shiso? Now I'm curious. Was it dried beforehand?
I guess Japanese put mugwort (yomogi?) in bread, too, so maybe shiso is not so out there.
Yes, it was dried. It was also the red kind. We got it at a farmer's market. It wasn't so noticeable before toasting, but something about the toasting really brought out the flavour. It was really nice. (I love shiso!)
Hmm...I've had yomogi (?) tea, but not bread. That's a good idea!
Thanks for visiting.
