Happy Monday!

Friday, I vacuumed and then washed all the floors while Wizard worked on outside planters. Not really exciting, but it feels better to both of us to get some stuff done.

Saturday, I made gluten and diary free brownies, and topped them with a brown sugar icing. I’ve never made a brown sugar icing, so I cooked the brown sugar in melted vegan butter to help mitigate any graininess from the brown sugar (most icings are made from powdered sugar for that reason). Did it work? I don’t personally know because I didn’t eat it But two of my taste testers said it was good. The whole thing looked too rich for me to eat. Anyhow, after than, I went over Youngest’s house to dog sit Phoebe for a bit and left the brownies in Youngest’s fridge. I also accidently left my Diet Coke in his fridge, and the next day, Youngest sent me a picture of him drinking my Diet Coke. I really need to get me some new kids. On the upside, he did thank me for the brownies, but was the Diet Coke taunt strictly necessary? Fine, I’ll admit I laughed.

Sunday, I met Biker Witch for coffee. I enjoyed seeing her a lot! I enjoyed it even more because Phoebe (my grand dog from above) gave me a gift card to Starbucks. I know what you’re thinking — How can a dog buy you a gift card? I don’t know, but the note with the gift card said to Grandma and from Phoebe. I don’t know about you, but I don’t question the details when someone gives me a gift card. So I thanked Phoebe and then we played with her toys.

Overall, it was a nice, low key weekend where I tried to not clean or do too much. I’m not sore or anything, but I’m older and know to pace myself a little bit more these days when I have the opportunity.

How was your weekend?
