    Now I'm thinking about chocolate ... LOL

    It's not yet 9 AM here and you might think it's too early in the morning for chocolate.

    Au contraire... not in Appalachia.
    We have chocolate gravy on hot buttermilk biscuits.



    For those who don't want to spike their blood sugar so early in the day, there's tomato gravy.

    Why are we so on about biscuits? This area of the south is ideal for growing soft winter wheat which makes light, fluffy baked goods, especially biscuits. White Lily self-rising flour is it.

    Ulli, best wishes on your jewelry venture. It sounds like exciting fun ... wish I could ditch the day job and come make jewelry with you!

    I just thought about it....
    I believe I associate the word "wind" a lot more with gentleness than the word "breeze".
    Yet "windy" is another matter...it evokes flying autumn leaves.

    You might not think that 51F (10C) is cold. Let me tell you. It is frigid, when it is the temperature at the kitchen sink. The dishes are piling up because I can't do the dishes in my coat. It gets wet, which is cold. Haha.

    So...I'm thinking of taking the space heater out of the bedroom and borrowing it in the kitchen, so at least I can get the dishes done.

    I want desperately to manifest a house that is well sealed and insulated. I do. With the back and forth I do, however, I can't decide whether that's a good idea. The unintended consequences...who knows, that might be worse somehow. What if I ended up in a house that is well sealed, but something worse comes up?

    sigh.

    Have a fire going. I've been saving the wood on the porch until I realized it might snow today. Then I said, screw this, I'm using the wood. So for today, sharing the warmth by the fire.

    Much Love,
    Life is a road we don't travel alone. But everyone's on their own journey home.

    I was thinking of tomato gravy and biscuits in the shower this morning. I sense lotusblossom is planning some for the weekend. Of course, she may just as well be planning some for dinner one night, too. It is the only roux she makes that starts with butter, anymore, insistent that the tomato gravy be made exactly the way her great-grandmother made it.

    Funny, I have been thinking about warm biscuits all morning. And the thought of chocolate gravy has crossed my mind...

    I can't imagine what tomato gravy would taste like...but I love tomato soup...I bet it is even yummier than that

    You have never had tomato gravy. On my word, when next you visit, this situation will be remedied.

    I had meant to converse a little with Araucaria about Charles Dickens. Time gets away from me and the topic changes.

    Thinking about wind and breezes today reminded me of this Dickens quote:

    It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade. ~ Charles Dickens

    I think that quote applies more in New England and the north country than here in the south. Spring time is a contradiction there; opposites standing side by side. It was interesting walking when the snow began to melt. Powdery salt-sand dried in the road, next to streaming water from melting snow. Cold air and warm sun, a sky so blue like summer, but the ground still covered with snow.

    Weather is endlessly fascinating to air types (Gemini, Aquarius and Libra). The sky, the atmosphere, and the air we breath.

    Anyway, dear Wind ... your posts are wonderful. Thanks for being here.

    Do what I do: turn your oven on full, and open the door.
    When you wash the dishes 10 minutes later your kitchen should be nice and warm.

    The most extreme experience of weather changes is in the high mountains of Peru...
    added to that you can't get enough oxygen.
    There it is freezing in the shade (winter clothes recommended)
    and tropical roasting sun on the sunny side of the street.
    Talk about change climate....all you have to do is cross to the other side of the road.

    I found a new, interactive weather map of earth that allows you to see the ocean currents in real time. It goes nicely with the wind map, too. I'll post both links:

    I find the currents map fascinating.
    I'm wondering if the Gulf Stream was always a weak as it looks now.


    Pity that the wind map shows the US only.
    We (in Costa Rica) have currently some high winds in the higher elevations...
    not down here in our valley, which is protected by the mountains.
