productive but at what cost

[unicornduke]

this morning I ran for groceries, going to the the co-op and the regular grocery store. then I went to michaels to get snaps for my SIL's christmas gift since they just opened as I walked out with my groceries. came home, put the milk for yogurt on the stove, then started sending emails and texts handling 3-4 small things

forgot the milk for over an hour, so it boiled and isn't any good. I always forget to set a timer, but usually I try and do stuff in the living room for 20 or 30 mins so I get up and walk through the kitchen and catch it, then set timers. Oh well, not the first time, won't be the last. 

got my pork shoulder in the slow cooker so I should eat well tonight if it's still any good. it's been in the freezer a while.

Bummer about the milk. Yummers about the pork.

Pork turned out excellent, so there's that.

M has been cleaning out the freezer here. We gave up on some of the stuff, it is 4+ years old. Fortunately we have a dog who very much appreciates old meat.
I've almost learned to use the timer in my phone. Almost.

Yeah, I have a few lingering things in the freezer that I'm trying to work through. I was surprised at how well the pork cooked up for being that old but probably it was so thick it couldn't freezer burn too much. I have some meals and things I need to get through.

Someday I will remember to turn the timer on.... I'm really good about doing it for baking but can't remember for the yogurt for some reason.
