sunday: our new old back door needed some repairs: caulking the panels because one of them leaked when it rained last week… adding weather stripping around the whole door… replacing the very ancient weather stripping under the door. the first two projects went smoothingly well. the ancient “under the door” part, not so good. jake is at home depot as i type to see what he can do about getting something that will work under there. he found a new one. we installed it.

we are going to make pasta from scratch tonight: with grapefruit rind and juice in the pasta. i’ll let you know how it worked.

well, the pasta came out good. it had just a hint of the grapefruit flavor which made it tangy. i sautéed kale with olive oil and garlic, added the little bit of the juice i had left from making the pasta. there was a bit of romaine lettuce in the fridge, so i added that at the end. almonds, a tablespoon of olive tapenade, parmesan cheese. yum.

i’m going to take a shower now.
