I woke up today feeling much better. It could be that Parker slept in until 8. I cranked up the heat last night and covered him with blankets in hopes he would sleep a little later than 6 am. And it worked! I was boiling hot all night, but whatever. Parker and I are getting back into our home-together routine. We still have to hit the road after breakfast, but he's fussing a lot less during the day. I'm not getting a lot of packing done though! But making Parker feel better is more important. I can pack like crazy the last week we are here.
I somehow thought today was Easter so after collecting boxes from a friend's house (whom I convinced it was Easter as well), we went to the grocery store for more boxes and Easter dinner ingredients. I was surprised there wasn't more ham out and that it wasn't on sale. *cough cough* We are having a lovely sunday supper of jalapeno mustard ham with pan roasted carrots, pickled golden and rainbow beets, sauteed beet greens and roasted asparagus. And then in two weeks, we can celebrate Easter all over again!
I would just like to add after the fact, that roasted asparagus is just about the best thing ever. I was reading Crazy Aunt Purl's blog last night and got inspired to make roasty veggies. I left out the garlic in hopes Mr. P would eat. He took a bite. The beet greens come in second on the flavor scale. Thanks to my father for the idea. Parker ate lots of ham and dinner was a success!
