A bit late, slow, and pained.

.

I have had worse.  And the sun shines through, sort of?  From time to time?  A good day.

Chores are done.  It is probably in the mid thirties to low forties?  It's nice out there.  Wet, so cool in that way, but... nice.  Oh, best feed the girls, and fix their litter boxes shortly.

Kefir has gone down.  Something about kefir?  It really helps regulate that which sometimes needs regulating, especially for those of us who can't, don't, eat regularly.  It doesn't turn out bricks, nor liquid, if you know what I mean.  Soft serve.  Hope I... didn't ruin that for anyone.  :p  Not only that, but if I haven't eaten enough, it seems to create the bulk needed to push everything out.

As for kefir, it is a strange drink.  There isn't just one type of critter growing in there.  Some if it is like highly softened cauliflower, some of it is like milky chalk, if most of it is like liquid yogurt.  No matter how much I shake, stir, or else, there are always bits of the growing things.  Initially that was a bit off-putting.  Now it is like finding the CrackerJack prize!  It... will take you a while to get to that point.

Oh, a few things for the morning...

Fermenting feed?  I had heard of this, and am considering getting to this.  A bit more work, and I would need three half gallon jugs, not quarts.  But the idea seems reasonable.  Though, I wonder if kefir whey might help that process?  I just don't know.

Here is something I have been trying to sort out since going keto.  Though, to be honest, even flour didn't help make the best cheese sauce.  I have been trying, and many ways, to do this.  I might give this option an opportunity.  I absolutely love cheese sauces.  But, as with stews until very recently, my success with the food has been sad.

Oh, a neighbor's wife, I am told, doesn't accept citric acid.  I had reviewed that ingredient not so long ago, but it was forgettable to me.  So I wanted to look it up.  Hey, no complaint.  We all have our... list.  Some keep to it better, some have more or less, but we all have a list and everyone's is different.  I just wanted to see what the issue was.  Ah, right... okay.

And this?  This is just the sort of day it feels like.  I can't go out, run, and play.  But I can watch the critters do so, and enjoy vicariously.  It's a bit of a rough day.  But a day I can smile through it all anyway.  I can, usually.  Seeing the sun the last few days, if only at the end, then today right in the early bright, makes it extra special.  My critters might not be so large, but they seem to enjoy life every bit as much.  

I won't usually have extra kefir, but today I am thinking another cup, feeding the cats, tending litter, then a nap.  A prayer and a smile too.  Later.
