Making Egg Salad a Day Too Early

    There are few people that will disagree, I'm guessing, that hazards in the World are everywhere. For balance, this is about a hazard on the less significant side of the hazard spectrum.

Was Egg Salad

    This winter I decide that each week I will have a moment in the outdoors while having a coffee, snack or lunch. Instead of a mat on the floor to meditate or a comfy chair to space out in, being in the fresh air, looking around, thinking about my relationship with Nature will recharge my soul's energy.

    In a good mood from the bright sunshine today, I made a batch of egg salad with the intent of making a sandwich for lunch tomorrow outdoors.

    The hazard is making the sandwich filling too soon. 

    I notice I've had no meal yet today. In the fridge is a nice container of wonderful egg salad. The results are in the photo here.

To my credit, there are two hard boiled eggs left for tomorrow's lunch. 

What strikes Your Fancy?

Sometimes, something will strike your fancy. You don't need to figure out why or understand anything other than you like what you see.

For creative types, our fancy is always open for a new experience. 

I have the feeling that the photo posted here is one of those mysterious sights that strikes my fancy.

I don't need to know why. Yet, I have been analyzing how the reflection on my patio window of me sitting under my chair umbrella, intrigues me. 

I can't see myself even though I know I am there.

Simple funny stuff for a summer afternoon

Crumbs

Perfecting the a skill of dinning away from a conventional table requires learning how to manage crumbs.

Whether you are on the sofa, chair or bed with the food on a dish. paper towel, napkin or bare hand, crumb behavior will be the same.  The biggest difference happens during the lift to mouth action. That is when crumbs come to life, fly and fall everywhere. 

The star of the show is the big crumb you happen to see briefly just as it falls. Confident it is large enough to find, you finish the bite before picking it off your sweather, shirt or pajama top. Only when you look, it is gone! Pressed by fabric into smaller crumbs.  

After finishing your food, you go to the sink holding up the hem of your clothes to pocket the crumbs. At the sink, you shake them out. 

The whole ritual puzzles me why we don't perfect eating over the sink.

Happy First Day of Winter!
