Spent most of the day driving Buttercup around spraying weeds. Lots of thistle and nettle along with the burdock so my legs are tingling a bit.
Making a Brazilian dish for dinner - Feijoada. It was originally a cheap dish made from meat scraps to feed the slaves working on the farms (yes - slavery is not a unique USA phenomenon).
It has elevated itself to one of the Brazilian culinary delicacies. Good stuff - using a Costco ham steak and some Hemplers country bacon, black beans, onion and garlic, black pepper and serve over rice with sautéed kale splashed with lemon juice. A pressure cooker cuts the cooking time down to 15 minutes.
Heading into town tomorrow morning to pick up a Craigslist goodie and drop Lulu off for two days.
