Holding steady
Kind of an off day for my mom; a hairdo perked her up a bit, though not as much as I'd hoped. We need more sunshine, and it doesn't appear to be in the offing.
Great bread batch this evening, a French bread with flax seeds in it, and upon finding we were out of tortillas, I suggested to our son that we make some. This is another dough that seems to need experimentation to get the right consistency. My usual mixture didn't seem elastic enough. They're something that could be made while camping, which appealed to him. And extremely low cost, another attractive feature.

And we need more rain, but only get a few sprinkles here & there.
Homemade tortillas! Yum.
We had sun on Sunday and Monday, but back to the same gloom Tueday and Wednesday. Did you get any sun? Sorry to hear that your mom isn't perking up. Have you ever thought about getting full-spectrum lights?
We gotta try again on the dough, kathyr. They were not so good today.
Not so much, Robin, on the sun. You know, the full-spectrum lights are a good idea. I could just substitute one in the lamp nearset her seat on the couch, and see what happens...
I hope you get some sun and your mom feels better soon. She likes her walks, so maybe an upcoming sunny day jaunt is just what she needs.
