Productive Thursday!

Not this one, but I’m sure I’ve had one in the past. No, just kidding.

Continued taping off things in the MILA. Had to cover some drawers I can’t seem to find how to remove them. The rails are screwed into flat boards and the boards are screwed into the shelves. Can’t get to the front screw or I’d take them completely out. Ah well. What’s any job without something going not as planned?!

Then I took that 25 pound chunk of Chuck I bought the other day and cut it into pieces small enough to put in the grinder; removing a lot of the fat but not all. Still don’t think I left enough for SWMBO, but, if she want’s it different she can do it next time. Then I fed all that beef into the grinder and made burger. Cut and sealed a bunch of sucker bags and got all that meat sucker-bagged and into the freezer. Only took a couple of hours.

Nice day again; 80+ degrees out. I get out there when I can. Supposed to cool down quite a bit over the next few days. Ah well. I enjoyed it while we had it.

Had to put my clothes on to go to Ace Hardware for some more plastic drop cloths. Bought 5 tomato plants and 3 Bell Pepper plants while I was there. Planted all of them when I got home. Not putting in as many tomato plants as previous years. See if thinning them out helps. Of course, I canned about 15 pints of tomato’s last year so I didn’t do badly.

And that’s pretty much it for today. Home from picking SWMBO up. Popcorn is a popping. Elegant Universe is on. Think I’ll chill…
