Wednesday - Sunny and warm
I woke up this morning a few minutes before my alarm went off. I went downstairs and then came back up to watch the news. I got dressed and watched from the bed.
I went downstairs around 10 am. I did a load of laundry, I did towels, so that was good. Towels are a necessity after all.
I hung up the towels and watched an episode of The Tick. I wanted something funny and light. I watched the next one too, but I was watching from the bed and I ended up falling asleep on it! I got up later and rewatched the episode!
I got my lunch, ate and watched the first episode of Bake Off season 4. I’ve actually seen the fourth season, that was when I started watching Bake-off. I’m still going to watch it again.
After the news and talking to F on the phone, I went downstairs and got started on dinner. I was making a pork stew tonight, I bought the ingredients last night. I was a bit surprised in the shop last night. I bought a stew roux box and they asked you to add two onions…no prob….then some buna shimeji mushrooms...yum…and some cabbage. Huh? I’ve never put cabbage in a stew. I don’t think it is wrong, but I was thinking of other things to put in it…no carrots or potatoes. For me, that was a tad strange. The box even shows broccoli in the stew, but not in the recipe!
Anyway, it took a little while to make the stew, so dinner was a few minutes late, but honestly, not too late. I called F down and as usual, he took ages and didn’t pay attention. TikTok is where he spends most of his free time these days.
I didn’t like the stew that much. I didn’t think that it had a lot of flavour. I had a small second helping of just stew and added a bit of Worcestershire sauce and it was much better. Tomorrow I’m thinking I might have mine on pasta. The rice was a bit yucky in my opinion. K and F seemed to like it though.
After dinner, I cleaned up and did the dishes. It wasn’t too bad as I’d done a few before dinner and it was a one-pot dinner. I put the extra stew in the fridge and then when I was done the dishes, I did the garbage up to send out.
I put it in the genkan and went to say I was going upstairs to relax to F. K had already gone to bed.
I took a shower around 10:30, just after F came up with some cut nashi. That was sweet of him! I ate a piece and told him I’d eat the rest later. I went down and showered. No big deal really, just I had to be careful not to use too much shampoo as my hair is so short now, I don’t need the same amount I did before Tuesday!
I came back to the room and watched Grey’s Anatomy. I moved the towels from the middle of the room where I hung them to my clothes rack. They are mostly dry. F went to bed so I turned off the light for him on his side of the room.
And that’s about it for my day. I wrote a couple of emails tonight and already got one back.
Not sure what I’ll get up to tomorrow. I’ll probably look out more clothes for the trip coming up and I’ll have to think about dinner and how to reserve the stew.
Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow….
