It’s weird, last year I got 3 or four invites for forth of July barbeque, and this year none…which was a go thing…I have had a terrible last 11 days…I worked for Saturday and was and absolute wreck…about 4 hours at church Sunday and felt even worse…and awfully physical day yesterday…awoke at 6:30 this AM with no electrical power in the house…apparently we had had a pretty nasty thunder storm that I had slept through…electrical power was never restored until about 8 AM …and cable (both TV and internet where basically off line until almost noon)…

I was very hungry but very lazy about 4:30 PM…got digging in the freezer and found a store bought beef pot pie…not the most gourmand or flavorful thing on the face of the earth but I was both hungry and had mo desire to cook…well I left it in the oven 3 to 4 minutes past the suggested time but then I love the crust brown and crisp…and large potion of black pepper and fresh ground sea salt and as I was taking it to my chair and a bit of TV to consume it I spied the bottle of nice EVOO on the counter…intended to drizzle a bit of EVOO…and slipped and put a bit more then a drizzle on said pot pie…result was amazing…I will never forget again to dress my pot pies thusly…

I actually feel pretty decent tonight…I’m really not ready to go back to work tomorrow…but I will none the less
