Give or take an half hour? Probably later, but... UP at nine. It's a pretty day, I would hate to waste it, even if I am dragging ass. Though, I'm not. Water was set to heat, 200 F for coffee, 160 for green, white, and herbal teas. I ought to see if there are more exact numbers. Then again, every time I look, different folk provide different numbers. Still, I ought to see if there is a majority consensus? Not... to abide, to begin with, experiment with, see what I like, prefer.
Then laundry was set for a spinal spin. One load to move over. I might have enough whites, to put in. Since all of those are fold items. As well, I have a second, summer weight, duvet, to wash. With sheets. Which had been washed, but smell stale. So... wash them again. Then I'll be putting things in airtight bags and some just in drawers, to see if they will last well. I have several types of sheets. Some are the crisp 100% cotton, white. Some are flannel, but 100% cotton, and unbleached, undyed. Enough to use each at least twice if I don't get to wash right away. So, one or two more loads, for certain. Probably?
I then put coffee to brewing, setting up a tea, for later. Water is all filled, though I need to begin working on ice again. Poured a kefir as well. I forgot to brush my teeth last night, crashing too hard to notice, or even be bothered by it while I sank into the mattresses and sleep. I'll have morning rounds of good and bean juice before getting to that, but it's... well on my mind.
Blood sugar is high, this morning, at 125. It should be dropping more. Getting more calories, eating (completely keto save for the kefir, depending how you call that). But with it not causing spikes in blood sugar, I don't believe it has lactose in it remaining. So, is... just animal product, so I count it as carnivore. Staying up so late, working a bit hard, waking early, can all cause... fluctuations. Still, 125 is... roughly okay, and better than the 150s and 200s. Meh.
Today? Any last bits of dishes. Mostly hand wash things, like a bigger plastic bin (mostly for sous vide), the big bucket and tools that originally came with the device. Clearing the kitchen table, then cleaning it. And the chairs around it. And the floor around it. Boxes to be broken down, and this room to be sifted further. Taking the boxes out to the suv right away.
The last of the laundry I can do. Maybe drilling holes in the clothing racks, to fit the cotter pins. Vacuuming. Oh, the large vacuum head doesn't fit the vacuum hose. I might try to jerry rig something to make it work. Or... not. Either way, I want to clear the floor, again, vacuum with the shop vac, then hit it with the new vacuum. As well, find time, while technically resting, to get a chair near some areas that are cluttered, and begin going through fringe areas. Both decluttering, tossing, sorting, storing, while also digging for the wallet.
Doing what I can. I know, it is Sunday. But I need to find the wallet. I have to look, look, and do more looking. Ah, the timer. Time to feed Sassy. I have put her on a timer, or she pushes too much. Best go feed the tiny tiger. Later.
I have no problem with "menudo", tripe, or whatever, tongue, "rocky mountain Oysters" Liver "nut feeds" kidneys, bring it, some flavorful cuts right there. Shame they put most of that in the "roaster/dryer" for animal feed.
ReplyDeleteWow. You are indeed a good man. I have to search for kidneys. Tongue is, now, easy to find, but so expensive! Oysters, rocky mountain, pig, all good too. The only thing I have with chitlins, or sich, is that I really want them very clean. Though, I have heard, if you get used to them, they... are more manageable a bit more gamy, wild.
ReplyDeleteExcellent. If we do end up going on a road trip, will have to see if we can find some exotic foods. Crocodile to those big birds. Not a daily thing, a bit lean, but... different for a bucket list. I've done most, just not the big birds... Australian of origin? Anyway, very good.
The next time I am in town, I'm going to pick up tripe and trotters. I go with pigs feet, they are much easier to find. Though I want fresh homily. I love that stuff. It's been a long time. Though, I learned to cook the trotters, and tripe, using the instapot, at pressure. Then add the rest after those are pretty much cooked. Oh, chicken feet are great, too. More collagen and milder flavor add profile.
Oh, and now that I have tortillas I can eat without issue, I love heating those as a side, sometimes as cheese quesadillas?
Have you ever had homemade headcheese? I was a bit afraid, only to find it is dill pickled meats, cooked off a pig (or other animal's) head, not... something... really odd. Loved it.
