You know how some days you get the bear and other days the bear gets you? Well, today belonged to the bear. Every room in the inn, three of the four cottages and the guest house were rented last night and all the guests left this morning. That's a lot of work for the housekeeping staff. Plus there were the complications: mis-labeled sheets, a damaged bedspread, a chair with a broken leg, not enough king-size sheets. We finished just before 1:00, too tired for an afternoon hike or run .
Our (small) refrigerator is so full of Bountiful Basket produce that putting anything into or taking anything out of it involves inordinate juggling and rearranging. I found a casserole recipe calling for artichokes, onions, and tomatoes--a wonderful way to clear some space in the fridge, I thought. What in the world inspired me to peel and chop all nine apples for apple crisp after the time and effort of assembling the casserole? Long story short, we had a good but labor-intensive dinner. And I gave the other two artichokes to our fellow work-kampers.
Here's hoping tomorrow will be a better day!
