If I’m not so sick I can’t get around well which is what I’ve been fighting. Tomorrow, I’m going to wash my floors and hope I can see their true color again. I let my dogs out a few times a day and our weather has been snow, warm, snow, rain, warm, snow, snow warm…my floors are a mess, all of the poop in the yard that had been repeatedly covered over by the snow is showing up (I spent two hours yesterday picking up what I could that was frozen because it was a snow day, not a warm day) so I don’t have to wash their feet and the floor from all the poop they manage to drag in on their feet. ingredients tablespoons olive oil pork chops (about 2 pounds total) green bell pepper, sliced yellow onion, sliced (13 3/4 ounce) can artichoke hearts. Speaking of dirty floors and dirtier dogs…this is two weeks now I’m dealing with the flu or what’s left of it. It’s one of the few things that are almost impossible to over cook in them.
They were thick and moist and juicy and tender, everything they should be but almost never are. I usually don’t order them out because they always end up like shoe leather. Speaking of pork, I did something I very rarely do here and ordered pork chops for dinner tonight at a nearby restaurant that is quite good. Meanwhile, I’ll have another glass of wine. I’ll wash their beds and the floors and we will once again have a decent house. I’ll take the dogs out, brush them and trim them and make them beautiful again. We’ve had 2 days of sunshine and 3 more are predicted. They’re only allowed in 3 rooms that all have tile floors.įortunately, the tile is the same color as the mud – I may be lazy but I’m not stupid. Instead, once again, I do things the easy way (see above). I would have to do that to 2 dogs, 4 times each day which would result in a stack of filthy towels that would then have to be washed… and only partially clean dogs. Crock-Pot Sweet & Sour Pork Chops are simmered away in the slow cooker with onions, bell peppers & pineapple with a tangy homemade sweet & sour sauce.
I should take them into the barn and rub them down with towels before letting them in the house. There is standing water all over the field where we walk.Īs they run they splatter mud all over themselves, which, of course, doesn’t bother them in the least. There has been local flooding near us, as well.Īt our house we just have sodden fields and dirty dogs. Even the rats are heading for higher groundĪfter a long, hot, dry summer we can feel confident that the water tables are, once again, back up to normal. People are being evacuated museums are closing, public transportation is shutting down…. The Seine is overflowing its banks in Paris.
