Completed. I haven’t put Lego together for a long time. This was satisfying. It was a little too much for my grandson.
I spent about three hours preparing our Anniversary dinner last night. It was a Japanese vegan dinner from the cookery book, Vegan Japaneasy: Over 80 Delicious Plant-Based Japanese Recipes.
In the photograph below, on the left is a
- Shiitake, Onion and Potato Stew, and on the right is a
- Portobello Mushroom and Onion ‘Sukiyaki’Bowl.
Both have a Mushroom Dashi, and the Sukiyaki Bowl also has a rich Sweet Soy Sauce, recipes for both were also taken from the book.
Outside it was wet and wintery, and so I enjoyed being in a warm kitchen, creating. These were only the second and third dishes that I had taken from Vegan Japaneasy, and I was very pleased with how they turned out.
Blessed with an opportunity to stay in a remote cabin in Nanakuli Forest Reserve on Oahu, built by architect Valdimir Ossipoff. Sunset from the cabin this evening.
Our septic tank sits under the front lawn. Today I uncovered one if it’s hatches, carefully saving the sections of lawn to put back in place once the tank is emptied. The second hatch, which I found and marked out at the end of the day, I’ll probably dig out tomorrow.
Happy faces as myself and three good friends finished an 11.2 mile hike across Haleakala crater, at the Halemau’u Trailhead, earlier this year. (Micro.blog October photo challenge, Day 18)
The map on this screen was my compass, and helped me see where we were as I headed back across the Atlantic a couple of weeks ago.
