Todays craft was knitting a scarf. I finished it early in the morning, made a wonderful curry lentil soup and did some “yard work”. 

By yard word, I mean mean burning a slash pile from some of the thinning and pruning we have been doing in the forest in the last week or two.

In case you’re wondering, the curry lentil soup was 6 mushrooms, 5 tomatoes, 2 carrots, 1 zucchini, 1 yellow squash (all diced), 1.5 cups lentils, 1 tsp better than bouillon, 3 tsp curry powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp paprika, 6 cups water & simmered for about 45 minutes. It was all vegan so I didn’t bother looking up the calories & it was delicious.
