Weeks Three and Four: in Postcards 4

2010: The Pantry when built.

Yes, of course, I’m getting ahead of myself. If I were working full time, I would get through week one in a month. Now here I am done with week four. Yes, after I get over the chagrin of it all, I’m having fun.

Have you ever looked at the dates on your salad dressings? We had a whole shelf of them, and I didn’t even know they had “use by” dates. There was an OMG moment when I discovered that most of those dressings were so far beyond their expiration dates that they were dead. A whole shelf of refrigerated dead.

The canned goods were fine. But next to them sat the spice shelves. They too have expiration dates, and much to my surprise many of them had 2017 “use by” dates. Hurrah…

Next Recipes and Cookbooks. I can always do that again. I love my cookbooks.

• Himself: Work, work, Olympics. Record and watch the next day fast forwarding past what we won’t watch.
• Herself: Gentle water workout, hot tub workout. See above, then Olympics. Slow cooker pot roast doing it’s thing.
• Reading: ”The Secret Garden.” That tells you that all the books I ordered haven’t come yet and there was nothing I wanted from the store.
• Gratitudes: That I am able to let go of all my fears to pass on my excess stuff.
