weekend

Did none of what I had planned to do yesterday morning. I had plans of cleaning the house up a bit, and beginning the clothes switch from summer to winter clothes (I have already had a couple of turtlenecks on in the last week....) But none of that happened. We had a couple of errands to run and then just decided to play hookey. Drove around looking at the leaves changing (the early ones) and the countryside. It was a wonderful way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

The final stop was the grocery store, for dinner fixins. The culinary expressions for the weekend included a lasagna and toll house cookies. Due to the request for an old-fashioned lasagna (one in which the sauce has to cook for at least a few hours) and the lateness of the day, oven baked fish was on tap for dinner. Unfortunately all of the little tastes here and little tastes there made a dinner meal out of the question.

Today, its brunch out with one of the few politicians I trust. My friend D is dealing with her own crisis, a working situation that is untenable. We will graze through the brunch buffet and drink coffee. Knowing that we can not solve the problems of the world, coming up with answers and solutions none the less, and enjoy each others company.

This is what a weekend should be.
