The Dishwasher Blues

It will be probably four more days until the dishwasher is fixed. Grrr! I'm sorry, Environment, but I broke down and bought disposable dishes. So here is our food on paper plates. Lovely.

Many thanks to Heidi for cooking and bringing over delicious vegan food on Saturday. What a huge help that was!

I did make Clayton some ranchero chicken (yes, the real deal) today for his tacos--a Father's Day request. He craves meat especially during chemo when his taste is altered so much. Now that he is cancer free, I don't mind him being a little flexible now and then with quality meat. I don't like to cook it but I felt it was better to buy organic non-antibiotic etc chicken at Whole Foods then buy it prepared somewhere else. He was a happy man tonight.

You?
