Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

At home in the kitchen

Not a sunny morning walk for me today.  It was damp and cloudy which made the 49 degrees seemed a bit cooler.  Still it was a great morning for walking.  I walked 6.7 miles and went over to the lake.  The sidewalk closed signs were still up but no workers there.  I decided to take the detour just because I like walking in the woods.  Here is some bamboo I came across.  The path is just off to the left.
Few people walking around the lake today, at least while I was there but now I'm seeing more fishermen.  A couple of boats were out on the lake too.
Lots of birds, geese, and ducks about seeming to enjoy the beginning of another day.
********************
As soon as I got home I put a pot roast in the slow cooker to cook all day.  I decided not to put potatoes in with it because I've been craving mashed potatoes for a few days now so I'll make that. 

Later in the day the sun showed itself for brief periods of time but it has been mostly cloudy and not as warm as it as been so I didn't sit outside.

I baked a batch of chocolate chip cookies for tomorrow.  I ended up eating two of them.  I'm skipping lunch though because of it.

Now I have to clean up the kitchen.

Hope your Friday is a good one.

Right. =D

Enjoy the pot roast and the mashed potatoes and the cookies and whatever else you decide to eat. Sounds great!

A pot roast sounds like very comforting food - I could just sit down and really enjoy it. Sounds a lovely walk through the wood.

Anything cooking all day, makes a delicious day, in the house. :-)
