I feel better finally, but that won't make this a decent post

I have not been feeling quite myself lately and to top it all off, today was an unpleasant day at work. I came home to a bag of Trader Joe's pizza dough that really needed to be used by tomorrow, so I pushed that into a shape resembling a rectangle and threw it on a cookie sheet. Then I put Penzey's pasta sprinkle on it. I had some tomato basil cheese I had bought but wasn't loving, so I grated that and threw it on.

It looked a little dry, so I looked in the fridge and saw some Harry & David's pepper relish. I dripped some of that over the cheese in a here-and-there sort of fashion and put it in the oven.

Believe it or not, it tastes really good. Very good, even.

Now has anyone noticed the full moon? It is coming up while I am still in the office, so I get to see it from my desk as it rises behind a bare tree that stands in the faintly lit sky. It's so pretty. I mean to take my camera to work tomorrow to capture it on film and use it for Thursday's Nature Notes post.

We were in Milwaukee over the weekend and had a fabulous time with Sofia and her family. She kept everyone fed and entertained and I just don't know how she does it.

I had made a list of things I wanted to do this holiday season, but since I slept through Thanksgiving and wasn't allowed to run, jog or swim, I don't know if I am brave enough to go back and look at the list.
