Today’s one of those lazy Saturdays where I have no major plans.<\/p>\n
I managed to sleep until 9:06 AM after waking up around 6:26 AM and then falling back to sleep sometime after 7:00 AM. I stayed in bed for a bit, reading some Twitter. Before getting ready to head to the Del Ray Farmer’s Market to drop off my compost.<\/p>\n
I left the house around 9:37 AM to walk the mile-plus to the farmer’s market. I\u00a0managed to walk in the street the entire trip there. Okay, I did have to walk across the sidewalk from my driveway to the road, but otherwise managed to do that.<\/p>\n
I ran into a few friends sitting outside in the cold (36 F of 2 C) of a local coffee shop (St. Elmo’s Coffee Pub) talking. They were getting ready to leave, so I went to the market a block away. I dropped on my compost.<\/p>\n
Then I picked up a Philly style tomato pie that was on a Focaccia type bread. Along with some Ecuadorian beef, empanada’s at another stand.<\/p>\n
On my walk home again, I was taking the long way. I stopped at Adli’s to get some salad. Because last night, when I went, they were sold out. The salad was on sale for like 80 cents to a dollar per bag, which is why there was none. I also grabbed two ginger-based GT’s Kombucha’s.<\/p>\n
Once home emptied my backpack and put things away.<\/p>\n
Then started soaking 8 oz. of Trader Joe’s Wild Rice and Rancho Gordo heirloom Classic Cranberry beans<\/a>. I think it was around 14 oz because I save 50 beans to grow them myself later.<\/p>\n The heirloom classic cranberry beans, wild rice, slow-roasted farrow from Anson Mills will get combined with garlic, onion, Trader Joe’s Corn and Chile Tomato-less Salsa, Trader Joe’s Fire Roasted Diced Green Chiles, a 12 oz packed of Impossible Burger, salt, pepper, and some spices. Who knows what else will end up in there.<\/p>\n Once the beans start cooking, I’m going to continue reading Heydon Pickering’s book “Inclusive Components – Accessible Web interfaces, Piece by Piece”<\/a>. Maybe nap some and watch more of Ron Finley’s MasterClass on gardening. You need to watch Ron Finley TED Talk<\/a> if you haven’t heard of him before.<\/p>\n So here is to more slow Saturdays or even Sundays or any day of the week for that matter.<\/p>\n Yes, I will post a final list of what goes into the soup\/stew, whatever it’s going to end up in a later post. I might even add a photo or two.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Today’s one of those lazy Saturdays where I have no major plans.
