Cleaned, Cooked, Cured

Today I cleaned out the kitchen. There's still stuff to organize, but the main thing was that the fridge was cleaned out. I even rearranged the shelf. I decided to leave the bottom two drawers out. They just got in the way. Instead I'm using them elsewhere in the house. (On top of the refrigerator for plastics, and in the cabinet for random crap.)

I salted some pork. I am trying to preserve them. I put a paper towel on top to wick away the moisture. I'll check it tomorrow, and change the paper. I know it's going to be salty, but I'm thinking of a way to get around that. I suspect that it might be really good in soups.

I made some curry, so I will have to wait until I'm done with that before making something else. The next thing I want to try is taro, pork, and mushroom soup. I have a vision and a taste in my head. I also want to fry some of the potatoes I got. I should have salted them tonight, but I'm really tired now. Anamary wants to go to the chocolate party tomorrow (Sat.) but the weather is still pretty bad. If the event is canceled, then we'll just make chocolates ourselves! I might make something sweet with coconut, tapioca pearls, and sweetened beans. I'll have to take care not to go overboard. I'm down to 175 right now.

If I get the courage to go outside, I'll go dig up my bag of dirt. I've got a potato that would really to be in a pot, and probably some onions too!

I hope the mail comes in tomorrow. Things from Hong Kong take a while to arrive!

Ah, but enough of that. I have a ton of things to read...and a quiz...and a test...and maybe another test. I don't remember. I need to sleep so I can wake up and study!
