RE: Caramelized Fig, Feta, and Biltong Pasta: A Quick Lunch Recipe

Yes… me too. I always look out. Don’t need a book or phone. I watch the world…

That would be wonderful… let us hope 🍀🍀🍀🍀

Taking it slowly for now. We had loads of rain. Today the sun is shining and the next 2 days should be dry. I hope so as we need to mow the grass (read meadow) around the cabin. As we couldn’t in the last 3 weeks as it was too wet.
I managed to fall yesterday on a walk along a river. It was still raining… so everything was wet.
I had my hiking boots 🥾 on… but stepping on a rock… made my foot slip and I went downwards falling backwards. I caught myself on my elbows and bum / right side of hip… hehehe trying not to fall on my back.
So all bruised up now and my right elbow is still open 🙁
Seems like i am not lucky and the stars are telling me I have to rest even more now… sigh

Sort:  

Oh my, the body is always right though. You need to rest, especially after a fall. I am so sorry to hear that, and on a hike that is the worst, because you need to hike back all bruised and battered. I hope that the recovery period will be short!

I wish for long grass, as I love to mow it. Some sort of dopamine hit when you smell the grass and see the order you created from the chaos. But in the winter the grass almost comes to a standstill and it does not want to grow. Only in the summer do I have that privilege!

I hope that your body will take care of you, and vice versa! Keep well and stay safe.

It wasn’t fun. As like you say… I still needed to hike further. I managed.
My right elbow is still very painful. All black and yellow now. What means it is healing well. One more week and all is forgotten. I am resting. Did go for a few short walks, to keep moving. Don't want to seize up the muscles.
Today and tomorrow are rainy days, so rest…

I like mowing, just for that. It smells amazing. Especially now it is still rather wet. Finished with it all yesterday as I also had to weedwack some areas and the edges.

Thank you so much, on it 😊
Have a wonderful day 👋🏻

Pure nostalgia, for me at least, the smell of freshly cut grass. Always reminds me of my grandfather and his beer after cutting the grass. Sweet memories.

Oh no, that is the worst. The healing and the changing of color, but as you say sure signs of recovery! I myself had a similar injury, I hurt something in my hand in the gym, and it has been three weeks I think that I have been unable to go back. Frustrating.

Anyways, have a splendid new week!

Oh that sounds like lovely memories. Treasure them 😊

As long as it heals and you see signs of it. Is good. Is your hand better now?
Thank you, have a wonderful week too 👋🏻

The hand is healed now, thank you so much! I am obviously a bit scared to overtrain it again, so I am being extra cautious. How are you after your accident? I hope also healed or at least healing! Keep well.

That’s good to hear. I understand the worry.

My wounds are healed. Just my right elbow…. If I bump on something it hurts still. Just the sofa with sitting or turning in bed is enough to 😖 but it looks much better. So almost healed.
Keep well too.

Oh that is the problem right? It is those small movements and small bumps that remind you of the pain. And the older I get the longer my injuries take to heal. Such is life I guess! I hope that your injuries heal completely before the winter colds take over!
