an appliance + a scribble
Yesterday we bought a mighty air fryer / convection oven / a-lot-of-things-appliance, and my husband is excited because he believes that,
since it was my idea to get it,
I will cook more. Not that he will let me, as he usually has to have his hands in the pot. And I shall cook more — not because of the appliance but because I want to eat differently, therefore, cook, even if on the stove. So having the appliance makes no difference, except in his mind, and that’s fine with me because I can’t get in there. =)
who would want to, right?
I am not speaking specifically about him but in general. So I cleaned and primed the thing, then baked a small dish of eggplant parmesan, which he made from garden eggplant + tomatoes.
Today, my breakfast consisted of a smoothie, which, in theory, I’ve always wanted to drink in the mornings but have never until today. I prefer anything over fruit — I mean that. I eat fruit sometimes but would rather not.
enjoy it sometimes but have 0-zero-0 appetite for it
The smoothie was not great … had a tad more texture than I would have liked, but better than expected. So much so that I went out and bought other fruits =) Which, eventually, my husband ate because they just sat there 😆.

Not in the mood to post then or since, and barely today, but it is silly to realize again that I do not always do what is good for me and want to do. So I am posting after coming home from
a 5-day mini vacation
although I have no desire to post about THAT: the annual New Hampshire golf trip — same wonderful golf courses, bad golf (for me), good food + lots of laughs. We had a Big Chill type of night last night =).
St. Paul has a humorous,
although perhaps not intended to be,
way of stating the conundrum.
I do not understand what I do.
For what I want to do I do not do …
