Taking a much needed break

fancytalkIf I never had to sand and stain another door again, I could be a happy girl. As it is, we still have to purchase three doors for the closets. On the brighter side, all but one of 5 doors are finished. I do need to bring the three in the garage inside, I just haven't motivated myself to do so.
I'm also on a cooking kick in my disaster of a kitchen. I put a slab of pork on the stove to simmer all day. It will become carnitas for dinner tonight. I'm also going to try my hand at making some corn tomalito. The closest explanation of it that I can think of is spoonbread. If you've ever eaten at Chevy's, it's the little dollop of corn stuff that they serve with fajitas. It's heavenly in the mouth. All the recipes that I've found so far basically read like making spoonbread. I'll try it and if all else fails I guess the dog gets a treat. I've also got a batch of yogurt going. Now if I could only get someone to wash all the dishes I'd be in business.
Yuck! Now I've reminded myself that I need to do laundry. RTL goes to Seattle tomorrow and then leaves on Friday to go see her dad. Clean clothes would be nice.
OK, this post is boring, so I'll get back to what I need to do.
