 I need to get up and go to the hardware store

my original plan was to run to the co op and the hit the hardware store but as it turns out, the co op has a power outage and they are closed and my brain isn't that happy about the change in plans. 

ugh

I'll hit the grocery store right next to the hardware store for the urgent item (plastic wrap) and wait to go to the co op. I won't be able to bake anything else because I used up a couple of essential things baking this morning. I'll go maybe tomorrow and pick everything up. that way I can bake some things tomorrow and some tuesday and drop the ice cream pie off to friends wednesday 

I've got to get my laser scarecrow finished up before the fourth because it is going into use which is what the hardware trip is. 

Okay, I've complained enough, I'm getting up now.

 today's food count: 

• churned vanilla cardamom ice cream
• made chocolate ice cream base to be churned tomorrow
• baked (gf) bread for sandwiches
• baked cornbread
• made yogurt
• made koorma, rice and dal for dinner (koorma and rice recipes from An Introduction to Indian Cooking by Madhur Jafrey and dal from Indian-ish by Priya Krishna)

I was hampered for about half the morning by Mara hiding from thunderstorms in the kitchen with me. Given the kitchen is a two person squeeze wide, it was a little more difficult.

I also got laundry done and got stuff from the hardware store. I'll be running to the co op tomorrow and potentially making the ice cream pie recipe in the next day or two and giving that to friends. I also want to make the fruit jam bar things to take to PA this weekend. My dad was making cracks about me bringing the ice cream machine to PA to make them ice cream. I'm vaguely considering it. It's supposed to be hot after today which makes me sad.
