I think it would be disingenuous for me to wish everyone a "Happy Easter"……I believe it's far from that this year. But, in spite of being rather agnostic (long story there…), we still wanted to make sure to wish everyone a safe and healthy day.
The Missus is working today and I had my first full day off since the middle of February. And having a day staying at home….well, I caught up on some cleaning chores, gave Frankie a long overdue bath (he's not talking to me at the moment), and discovered this amazing thing called an afternoon nap.
As for a blow-out Easter meal, well, that isn't happening this year. Instead, I just went and cleaned out the pantry a bit; the extra ham hock I had from Siesel's with a the half pound of Rancho Gordo Cranberry Beans; the half rack of pork ribs and half-pound nixtamalized corn I had left from making pozole, collard greens, potato, zucchini, etc…… And just made a hearty soup.
All the soaking and simmering took most of the day; but I'm sure the Missus will enjoy this when She gets home.
I hope every one is doing well on this Easter, physically and mentally. And like the title of this really short post says.
Our best wishes to all of you for Easter and the season ahead!
