Comfort chairs and food



Beth and I ran around yesterday and we found adorable club chairs in leather that we can actually touch our feet flat to the floor and not feel like Edith Ann on Laugh In. I bought one, but I am going to get a second then get rid of the enormous cloth couch in the library and make a little vignette with the two club chairs and a table with a reading lamp. The shop was attached to Fortin Iron Works where they make wonderful iron works gates, fences, planters etc.  Attached to this works is an antiques shop where old and new is sold.  I don't usually like the mix, but I liked this one very much. Fortin has done work on our property before and we are having them do a bit more.

Today I am getting ready for Monica to come tomorrow.  She missed last week because of Andy and my operations, so there is plenty to do tomorrow and the refrigerator is on top of the list.  I found a lovely package of dried beef from my favorite Cincinnati meat shop and turned it into debris gravy to go over lovely, flaky basmati rice. The gravy would have been especially fine with some mushrooms, but I have none, so there it is.  Andy will be glad for that missing ingredient, he hates them so. This dish will suit him when he gets home from class.

To the doctor

We are off to the doctor to have Andy checked out since he has had two falls.  We thought to wait until his appointment on the 20th, but aft...
