unicornduke I was going to make a post like two days ago but I didn't and don't exactly remember what all I was going to talk about.
Last weekend was the first in a while that I've been home (NY). So I took Mara to the dog park, hit up the farmers market (omg so many plums are in season) and then I ran over and rippled some flax at the A Farm. Oh shoot, I should probably go over there tonight and get some more done. B had finished harvesting her flax and it looks lovely!
Don't remember the rest of saturday.
Sunday, I baked zucchini bread. When I first went gluten free, I tried making it with bob's red mill AP mix and it didn't turn out well multiple times. So I gave up. Sunday I tried two different flour mixes and they both turned out great so I'm pleased. And now I have four loaves of zucchini bread. Or I did. I also processed most of the zucchini I had so I've got 8 cups in the freezer and I used four sunday for those batches. Also made yogurt.
I'm planning to make sausage pizza tonight, trying a new recipe so we'll see how that goes.
Oh yeah, went ice skating sunday to try the new (used) ice skates and they definitely make a difference to have nice name brand ones. They feel very different but in a good way. I was sore by the end of it, but that will just take time to get used to them. I can still do backwards crossovers which is good.
I'm also working from home today, it's kinda rainy and I don't have much to do so I'm alternating working and other things. Made lunch: potatoes and sausage, very tasty

Sounds like a peaceful day, after a highly productive weekend.

It was good!
Now I have to figure out the actual name of the sausage; handwritten on a tag behind condensation in the case at the local fancy butcher. Could not read, probably couldn't pronounce even if could read. "that looks good" was correct, but I have no idea what was good.
