fleaHarvest:
8 carrots
about 20 bush beans
German Johnson tomato as big as my hand
basil for pesto dinner
Book read:
Marion Chesney, Plain Jane (1986). There's a lot going on in this Regency romance - romance, mystery, an interesting Upstairs-Downstairs thing - which may be why the characters are either caricatures or flat. I may try one more of hers, but I don't really like her voice and she seems to suffer from the 1980s phenomenon of boring perfect heroes and boring stupid heroines. I can take naive, but stupid gives me hives.
It was a very difficult night last night. I really need mr. flea's help in the nights, and he fell asleep with Casper and I didn't wake up enough to go ask him for help until 5:45 am. Left to myself I have a great deal of trouble getting the Dillo to sleep - I suck at wrapping him up - and have a tendency to nurse too often and fall asleep nursing (we can do it lying down already!) only to be woken by every single snort. Very tired today.
I tried earplugs during his naps today. Helps some. I wish I were better at sleeping through the sniffs and snorts. I am a complete hair-trigger-mother sleeper.
