flowers, cats and the dinner routine

 

i made lentil soup with carrots and celery (also with garlic and a parmesan heel) . . 

we take turns washing the dishes afterwards . . the dishwasher broke a number of years ago and we never had it fixed. we've been down the repair road and the replacement road and so far we haven't wanted to do either for this one. i do think eventually (one day!) we will replace it with a better quality machine . . 

(they were discussing artificial intelligence, data centers, routers and the number of power cords needed for all the information corporations keep online).

pluto is grabbing at my toe with his claw . . 

he's such a nut.
