due to still feeling like crap most of the time, being in pain and finding the way i used to work too much for me lately, i have started to work in smaller batches..... here and there to stock the freezer for not only when i am really bad sick but also for the winter.
i decided that over the holiday weekend, i would make enchiladas for the freezer.
i found a pork loin roast down there that needs to be used up as it's been in there a bit too long now.
however since it's been vacuum sealed i figure that a 2 year old date on it is ok
and i've decided that i'm going to make this roast tomorrow, then sliver it and add it to tortillas and freeze it as made ahead meals, i believe i maybe even have some chard in the garden to add to it
i was thinking about some other ways to use tortillas to enclose foods then cover with sauce to put in the freezer, and i am considering trying meatballs, tomatoe sauce and mozzarella cheese down the road
as well as chicken, ham and swiss cheese.... with a mushroom garlic sauce
i figure, they are fast, freeze well, are good uses of leftovers, and reheat quickly
plus with my limited energy levels they are easier for me to make up in tiny quantities....
i can cook the meat tomorrow, and make up the enchiladas or wraps on saturday/sunday......
i could even make up the sauce today and then just assemble everything on sunday or even monday ......then bernie can run the finished meals down to the big freezer for me
all with minimal energy expansion on my part
yesterday i hand washed 5 thin cotton blouses .....and dried them on hangers on the line (finished up in the house due to a storm)
i have 5 more to do
then i have to start doing sweaters........
normally i so my non wool sweaters in lingerie bags on delicate in the washing machine....
i am going to try and do that with some
i also found some denim tunics from a billion years ago (seriously i think most of them are like 20 years old) that still may fit so they will go in the bags too and i maybe will have more clothes
now that i have a half assed closet.....
ahem... i am also considering how to get more organizers in that half assed closet to keep more stuff in that area... having hanging space for my clothes is such a luxury i can't even tell you.
meanwhile i am still dithering with that black paper..... i should just pull it off the drafting and get on with the next series on regular watercolor paper
it's so bad that i am dreaming of painting so i really do need to get on with it
i'm not very happy when i am not painting or doing something along those lines
oye
til next time
happy fourth to you all
stay safe
