The guy who is buying the motorcycle from my Darling is a nurse and even showed up in scrubs. He shops online for them at places like Marcus nurses uniforms.
I verbally gave his wife the blender pie recipe and told her I would post it and if she googled blender lemon pie she’d find it. I played around with the blender lemon pie recipe last night and poured the lemon mix from the blender onto a yellow cake mix that was poured into a bundt pan.
The results were mixed. While being delicious, it was an ugly thing when I inverted it out of the pan. The lemon pie did not stay on the top of the mix, but, rather predictably, lay in the bottom. That left pie on the top when I inverted it, which was not as pretty as it should have been. Don’t know what I’ll try next, it’s going to take a while to eat this one and work off the calories, so experimenting will have to wait.

Yoani Sanchez, with her book Havana Real and her blog GeneracionY.com has driven me to the fridge again. This time I thawed out the goat cheese stashed there for the delicacy of pasta salad with feta cheese and greek olives. I’m so ashamed. Not only am I endangering my diet, but by my not being able to do anything about the hunger of the Cubans I am fostering my own binge behavior.
I only took a few spoonfuls, but it is more cheese than she will get in a month, or maybe many months.
I am categorizing this entry with many food categories.

I think Nununda has found a home. The people were over to see her today, I think it will be a good home for her. The guy was almost in tears, he liked her so much. They had just lost one a couple of weeks ago and he was grieving.
I am a little worried that they didn’t have an autopsy done, seems a mystery why a 7 yr old cattle dog would just keel over one night. But I guess they weren’t that curious. They have 2 other dogs of mixed breed, medium to large in size and they all sleep together. Nununda is used to sleeping on the bed, and hell, anywhere else she wants, I guess, if I had to say it plainly. Seems like these folk have the same attitude. She should feel right at home.
They have a nice back yard, and I am going to try to make sure they get her out frequently. Dogs need new sights and smells just like we do.
Dave needs to say goodbye and also needs to check these guys out himself, so I told them we’d bring her over tonight and Dave could meet them. I told them to expect another interview. I grilled them pretty hard.
I fed the dogs frozen hard-boiled eggs while the people were here. Everybody calmed down real well and Nununda seemed to take to the guy right away, laid down at his feet while we were talking, even.
