Sunset Behind Oxalis

oxalis

The oxalis is happy and drama free today. I watered it a lot recently and that keeps it perked up. If it’s not watered several times a week, it wilts. But within a half an hour of watering, it will be happy again!

It really does take a few months to get used to a new plant and the oxalis is a plant species that’s very new to me. Speaking of which, my African violet has lost all it’s flowers and I don’t see any new buds. It needs repotting and maybe some fertilizer too. I hope this is not a short-lived experiment.

I still love my balcony sunsets, although the windows need cleaning. Not today! I cleaned the freezer and fridge, but realized that I need more bins and soup freezer molds. I ordered them and should have them next week.

Right now I’m doing meal prep for the week. I cooked some salmon, onions and asparagus and am getting ready to cook some farro. Any baking will have to wait until tomorrow. I’m thinking of making some chocolate scones and using the pumpkin spice latte in place of the milk. I can’t drink it plain, so I’ll cook with it. It could be good for some French toast too!
