March comes in like a lion (ROAR) and goes out like a lamb (wimper??)

It's a roar out there! Warm but 20 mph ish winds. . Limits activities somewhat.

In for lunch and watching a Jacques Pepin cook show. Rabbit today. Thinking of all you who raise them...it was a nice one! French cooks have used them for years, more than USA. It was a lovely stew with mushroom, onion and some cream at end. Looked tasty.

Sounds wonderful!

Well....here's how.

Whole rabbit, cut up, browned in olive oil and butter. Then about 1/3 cup flour sprinkles over all in pan, turned to moisten, stir, salt/pepper...add cup white wine, cup water and bouquet garni (Sage, rosemary, basil). Top with couple cups button mushrooms, cut in half, 3 cloves garlic mashed & chopped, plus about a cup chopped onion. Cover to simmer about 1- 1.5 hr. Broth will reduce, add 1/2 cup cream, stir in...serve up! . Of course, adjust amounts to taste but that's the gist of it.

He did mention that the bones are quite hard and to use a cleaver, rather than ruin your knives.

My PSA for today.

Good morning y'all! Coffee is ready. Today I have an appointment with the CPA in Livingston. I've been carrying my "important" papers in the front seat of the truck, for fear that I would lose them, which I probably would have. LOL LOL Then I have a slow leak in a front tire, going to Discount Tire to get it fixed. Have been trading with Discount Tire for about 8 years and always buy the road warranty. Might as well get them rotated too. Then maybe lunch with a couple of friends.

I got some of the stuff unloaded from the back of the truck yesterday, but still have stuff in there. I'd like to get the camper top off, but I got to get the rest of the stuff out. Got to clean up the inside, going to Corpus Christi this weekend and will bring girls back with me. Yesterday I just didn't have a whole lot of ambition, I sat down and read a book. Rested my knees. I haven't stopped for 3 months, so it was kinda nice to just sit around, boring though.

Morning heen keeping busy around here. Working on cleaning up the yard and getting rid of the random junk and broken toys they piled up since i was pregnant. Now that i can do it and dont have to hear oh you shouldnt be lifting that or doing xyz you name it lol. I will be working on the garden next gonna get some things going in the ground and also make some raised bed like planters. The kids enjoy working the garden and so do I something to keep our mind occupied while daddys gone. Still need to buils the raised bed things just trying to think of how I want to do it.
Dh seems to be making friends which is nice. We been going to church so thats good for us. Need to plan some fun activites for kids to do. So far doesnt look like he will be back in may... looks like his deployment might go longer... but he will get four days off every so often to come home which is nice.going to the bank, house chores and homeschooling might get in the yard and work today we see how that goes.

Good morning! Coffee is ready! Direct TV installer is coming this morning. I get TV turned on! I’m not one to leave it on all day, but I like to watch weather on news in mornings and some programs at night.

I still need to finish unloading truck, clean back seat area and put the seat down. I probably won’t get the camper top off. Oh well.

There was a dog in my yard last night. My dogs were barking crazy and I went out back to talk to them. Then another dog started barking at my voice. That wasn’t MY dogs bark! Pitch black darkness, I couldn’t see it, naturally I couldn’t find a flashlight, so I yelled at it. After a bit my dogs settled down.

 

[Mini Horses]

Might need TV with grands coming...cartoon mornings!

I suspect finding a flashlight might be a good thing

Nothing new here. Cooler but fine at 50 and rains coming for Wed & Thu. I'm working every day this week, so whatever. Just don't be raining at chore time! This week and next so busy I operate on auto pilot. Good thing as no time to entertain much else.
