NYT Spelling Bee 5-19-21 final

It’s Wednesday today, but it feels like Monday. After two additional days of weekend, it will be weird for this upcoming weekend to come so soon! Usually on Thursdays, Calah asks me what we’re having for Shabbat dinner Friday night. About then, I swear loudly because it’s yet another week I haven’t made one of the two chuck eye roasts in the freezer. “I should have started one yesterday,” I lament on the regular. Well, a little after 6 this morning, I started the chuck eye roast. It’s sealed in a bag with garlic powder, thyme, sage, paprika, and black pepper. The bag is in a Coleman cooler, and the Anova sous vide immersion cooker is set to 134 degrees. It will be ready by Friday afternoon.

Oh, man. I have the Channel 5 news on in the background, and they just mentioned the wind that’s coming up. It’s good that I’m done with the major sanding for the woodworking projects!

Here’s what there is to look forward to:

Why don’t you go fly a kite?

About raabidfun

I'm a guy living the #raabidfun lifestyle. I figured I would create a blog about crossword puzzles I do. The idea is to do the NYT crossword and the WSJ crossword daily as much as I can. That includes when I don't finish and have clearly failed. They can be difficult. Also I am not an attorney, and any legal analysis in this blog reflects my interpretation, which means it can be flawed and should not be relied upon for use in legal matters (especially against me).
