Sunday's Story

Sunday was basically a throw-a-way day. I started to cut the back lawn and before I made four passes, it began to rain. So, that was the end of that.

I did one thing that was brilliant, though. I took out my mandoline and set it for 1/8 inch. Then I ran the beets and radishes through it along with a nice big red onion. I covered all that with white vinegar, adding two tablespoons of sugar and one tablespoon of salt. I put it in the fridge to pickle and snacked on it all day. The radishes, especially, were delicious!

For dinner, I mixed a can of oil-packed tuna with a can of mushroom soup. I added in a handful of frozen peas and then cooked half a bag of wide egg noodles. I topped the noodles with the tuna and peas (one of my Mother's classic dishes) and watched my Sunday night shows.
