A few things.

.
.
More laundry sorted, if I still need to collect laundry baskets to move the sorted clothes to where I can fold or put them up.  Well, and I want to open the upstairs, s well.  A bit of kefir, now a fatted, unsweetened, coffee.  I figure one or two of those every other day.  Works well.  Plus, it offers actual, good (especially for keto), calories.  Helps stave off hunger, or unreasonable hunger anyway.  Remember, for my size, I am honestly allowed 1800 calories, on a fasting diet.  I'm not sure that is exactly right, though, either.

I had thought to start the sprinkler, in the back yard, but I'll do that tomorrow night.  Watering areas every other, or every third day, and for less than an hour on any spot, except when I lose track.  I should get the mower going tomorrow, at least hit the front thatch.  Maybe the back yard too, if it looks healthy enough for it.

I did check on the critters.  Everyone is looking well.  The cool night is really pleasing for all.  I also checked the water kefir grains.  They really are doing splendid.  So I hurried the cleaning of an half gallon jar, so as to reset the grains into that.

They might actually have nearly doubled, right off the bat.  I am amazed at how many grains there are now.  I am just going to drain the liquid.  And, probably, at least with this next batch, and very probably the one after.  While I am rather thirsty for kefir water, I'd rather go slow and get it right.  At this rate, by the time I get to the third jar, and as I am moving to the fourth, I very well may have enough grains for two half gallon jars!  This stuff is amazing.  And, it was six months past their recommended use-by date.  Interesting stuff.  I may begin freezing little packets, from time to time, and if not used, then replacing after, say, four packets are in circulation.  Just a tablespoon, in a little ziploc.

The water is ready.  It still takes a while to fill a jar.  Now to switch the kefir to the new bigger jar, and sugar and add molasses.  I love... playing with my food.  Later.
