I'm sitting here, alternately reading the paper and checking the computer. I can hear birds singing outside. Could it be the little fellow was wrong yesterday and spring will be here soon? I haven't gone out het to see what the weather is but the sound of birds singing is truly wonderful.

Today is cooking and baking day. I'll put together meals so all we have to do is defrost and cook with minimal work the rest of the week. First step is to season 3 whole chickens and toss them in the oven. Second step is to saute some onions & garlic and brown 2 pounds of ground chicken. Then I can throw meals together - maybe they will last two or three weeks this time.
