And now I know I was naive

My first attempt at a French Baguette
My first attempt at a French Baguette

Now that the New Year has started, things seem to have settled down here in Palm Springs.  It was pretty busy until lots of folks left yesterday to head home.  I am sorry to say this, but David and I are so glad to be staying here with the 75° and sunshine, and thinking of all our friends who are suffering through this arctic vortex.  While I am sure it is pretty horrible, the news certainly does come up with ways to make things sound pretty dramatic, right?  I love getting some lovely notes from people with updates on their lives around the holidays, and we have gotten some great updates in the past few days.  It is great to have things to read to David aside from this blog (which I have skipped a few times).  I am just finding it difficult to come up with things to write that seem more interesting.  I know that all my adventure in baking are fascinating, but . . . really!

In physical therapy David did his usual time on the stationery bike, but this time Blade didn’t use the strap to keep his right knee from flopping, and all the exercises we have been doing have paid off – he didn’t need the strap, just some gentle reminding to pull his knee up once in a while.  He was pretty exhausted after that, and it did take a lot out of him.  I find the same thing with speech.  When we do too many exercises, he begins to get tired, and he doesn’t do as well as when we start.  All that is to be expected.

We are happy that we have some visits planned for this month.  We are also having Blade and his husband for dinner on Saturday.  Blade suggested that we get together for dinner, and David volunteered my cooking.  Blade thought that was pretty funny, and said that if I wasn’t up to it, we could go to a restaurant.  I am happy for the distraction of planning and cooking a dinner. Maybe I will use the paella pan I bought and tried out with some success.  I might even bake a cake.  Speaking of baking, I made a baguette this morning, which came out pretty good.  I was pleased.  Don’t think for a moment that I have thrown over the Macarons, I will make a return soon.

We also got the last of three bids on redoing the pool, and the third one is the charm.  I liked this guy better than the other two, and his bid was better by quite a bit, so we are going to start the work soon.  Once that is done, we will truly be living in paradise.
