Errands on Tuesday

Brunch: Boiled Mung Beans and Lunu Miris

On Tuesday, I boiled mung beans for brunch.  I had put the dried mung beans to soak the night before.  In the morning, I rinsed them, covered them with cold water, and boiled them until they were soft, for about 30 minutes, or so.  I ate my serving with a spicy relish of chilies, onions, salt, and lemon juice, called lunu miris.  

In the afternoon, I went to the pharmacy to pick up a medication refill that was ready.  That was my only errand for today.  

I spent the rest of the afternoon sewing on my quilt top and watching videos.  I also put some water to a few of the plants in the back garden, including the newly planted zucchini seedling.  And I brought the trash cans in.  

The new grocery ads were out and I looked through them.  I didn't order any groceries last week so I have the rest of April's grocery budget to spend on this week's groceries.  Prices go into effect on Wednesday.  

For dinner, I took about a third of the ground beef mixture I cooked on Monday and added some frozen corn and frozen green peas and a little ketchup.  We had it with rice:

Dinner: Ground Beef and Vegetable Mixture with Rice

We had apple pie for dessert.

On Tuesday, I was grateful for:

- A sunny day
- The availability of medications
- The car started
- A safe drive to the pharmacy and back
- A relaxed day

Tuesday's joyful activities included spending time sewing and being in the garden.  

Plans for Wednesday include tending to the garden with M.
