Box Factory

I want to sneak some of Zara's boxes out to the trash. It looks like a box factory in here. The desk chair box is her current favorite. Well, she got a reprieve because the garbage can is full. I'll put some more boxes out for pickup on Monday morning.

I finally received some of the grow bags that I intended to plant lettuce and spinach and carrots and peas in, but it's too late to plant them. I'll hang onto the bags for fall. I could grow beans and zucchini during the summer. The weather is still too cold for herbs and tomatoes. It looks like a late planting this year because the weather is still getting cold.

Zara jumped on my lap briefly in my office room and then left to do Important Cat Things like dive into the desk chair box. Now here comes Mimi....

I just learned about pasta makers. I didn't know that they existed. Now I know. I'm putting it on my "wish list". Hey, that would be a good Christmas present....I'm also keeping an eye out for a good price on a Kitchen Aid mixer. Not holding my breath....On eBay, there are some without accessories that are a decent price. Need to figure out the total cost after buying the accessories though. No, the best deal is a refurbished one with free shipping on eBay. Need to think about it.

I downloaded the manual for the new-to-me DSLR camera and bought an SD card for it. I printed off the "intro" and "setup" parts of the manual to read. The camera should get here on Friday.

I made Home Chef Baked Ziti. It was pretty good, and it had spinach, shallots, and garlic in it, so I got some veggies. And I have leftovers.

I took home one of Anne McCaffrey's books about a crystal singer when we weeded our collection. I ordered the other two books in the series because I feel like escapism reading. So reading some of the book that I just received is my plan for the rest of the night.
