Speaking of habits, my time to blog and internet has been vastly reduced of late. Poor me! Having more work means some adjustment around here. Even so, I am quite thankful to have found my latest job. Feeling really good about it. I did, however, enjoy the last two years of working only sporadically. Not gonna to lie to you. Adjusting to my new schedule has back-burnered any other outside activity--at least for now.
Today is a break day, which I'm thankful for. Feeding a longtime fixation and watching a couple of my preferred cooking shows, and then it's outside to plant bougainvilleas, French lavender, Song of India, Ti plants, and some coffee cherries, which were picked near my employer's place... From some abandoned 80 year old Waipunalei coffee trees. Spring is in the air. My (lucky) new employers are away for the weekend, seeing Bonnie Raitt on Maui!
On Tuesday night, we watched a Bill Murray movie that I somehow managed to miss. (Bill Murray is another of my fixations. I do love a man, or a woman that makes me laugh!). We both liked it a lot. "Broken Flowers"-- Directed by Jim Jarmusch. Released in 2005. Yet another ideal role for Bill, and his co-stars were well cast. Jessica Lange, Sharon Stone, Tilda Swanton...He plays an aging, selfish dude who is pushed into looking up several women from his past, and quickly learns that age-old adage--that you can't go home again. A fun and poignant film, in my unsolicited opinion.
Anything but 24/7 papal updates! Same as it ever was and will forever be. A-men. There I go with more opinions, yikes! As the man and I like to say, we can be good and kind humans even without religion. And we do try.
Oh! Also needing to bake some Okinawan purple sweet potato biscuits for the man to take to share with his farm class tomorrow. And a few extras, naturally.
Aloha...

I've been out of work nearly 2 years and I don't miss it at all, but I am looking for part time work. I assume you were at the 1989 NYE show when Bonnie Raitt opened and then joined the Dead for Big Boss Man?
You betcha! One of my all-time favorite NYE shows EVER.
I am going to make Russian ravioli,or pelmini, which I found out about on the Internet.
I'm googling that recipe, Hattie! Last night's. dinner was Polish cabbage rolls here... I detect an Eastern European culinary theme.
We're getting the gardening beds ready here. Won't be planting anything for a while, but the prep is so much fun!
