I’m sitting
here trying to think of something I did today.
Seems the whole day got away from me and I didn’t do anything really
productive. The weather here was in the
low 60’s and overcast with a breeze all day – just didn’t make us feel like
getting out on the bike or even sitting outside.
I wanted to
fix a pork roast so I would have pulled pork for enchiladas and some other dish
yet to be determined. Normally, I would
have just put it in the crock pot and not given it another thought. But, last night I read that you should have
your crock pot at least half full and no more than two thirds full. So, I decided to do it “right” today. But, the large crock pot was too big and I
couldn’t think of anything else I wanted to put in with the pork and the small
crock pot was too little. I decided to
roast it – bad move, I shouldn’t have overthought the crock pot issue. I don’t know if it was the convection oven or
user error, but it took forever to cook, didn’t brown and I thought it ended up
tough. It was ok by the time I simmered
it in seasoning for the enchiladas tonight.
Had
something unusual happen today. There
are several kids in the campgrounds that ride their bikes and non-motorized
scooters (the kind that you push with your foot). We are on a bit of a hill so they can get
them going pretty fast. We were sitting
inside this afternoon and heard a bump to the front of the coach and looked out
the front window. We had been hit head
on by a small boy on a scooter. Didn’t
leave a mark on us, but I’m not sure about him.
He was up and gone before we got out of the coach.
I worked
quite a bit on the recipe scanning project and looked through brochures on
Sioux Falls to pick out some things to do in the next couple of weeks.
