lydamorehouse Took Mason to robotics this morning. Apparently, today was "bring your pet to work day" (okay, not OFFICIALLY!) and one of their teacher/coaches brought in her adorable Corgie, which prompted a number of shenanigans. The point is, Mason had a lot of fun today, and their robot has a name, "Onyx."
I meanwhile, have been cooking and baking up a storm. I decided that what I really needed for lunch was a mess o' beans, so I made a big pot again for me to eat lunch from for the remainder of this week, into next. Shawn made some orange, date, and pecan bread and a batch of chocolate chip cookies. I've started a loaf of bread, half of which I'm thinking of making into onion rolls. I may post pictures of some of this extravaganza later.
I'm trying a new white bread recipe from The Gasperilla Cookbook, which Shawn found at the library friends sale.
In about an hour or so, I'll be taking Mason over for movie night at his girlfriends'. Mostly, at her house they watch "Great British Bake-Off," and here they watch an anime called "Haikyu!" and various other movies. Shawn and I might have a movie night of our own and watch "Dark Tower," because we still get the occasional disc from Netflix and that's what we have at home right now. But, if we're not in the mood for that, we'll see what's streaming.
Otherwise, it's been a fairly quiet Saturday. How about you?
