I started the day rather slower yesterday. My achy body didn't want to get going. I did my yoga stretches as usual, and got busy. First, with rain in the forecast, I went to the kitchen.
My new oven mitts. These were a gift at the big birthday bash from an old friend. They are longer than they look in the photo, and withstand up to 500°F. I love them.
I baked us some blueberry banana bread. I different recipe, but used up a few lingering over-ripe bananas. My freezer is still full of blueberries (thankfully).

Wacky Weather
I woke up to checking the weather yesterday, and saw rain was 60% at 10am and 90% at 1pm. So, I adjusted my day. I started by making 3 "cans" of homemade condensed mushroom soup. Smelled so good too. I love the smell of shallots cooking in butter. Mmm. The "cans" went into the freezer. By the way, this soup on top of turkey breast, in the crock pot, tastes amazing.
At 11am the rain had not arrived.
At noon, no rain. At 1:30pm? No rain. I chopped up a head of cauliflower to prep for dinner early. Put that in the fridge and checked the weather again.
