Dec. 17th, 2018 08:35 pmSince early this spring I've had a ponytail palm - a smallish one. For years in Louisiana I had a HUGE one, about three and a half feet tall, not including pot, and it took two people to move it easily. I could move it by myself, but not easily. Unfortunately the cold got it one year. I saw this poor guy at Walmart, half out of the nursery pot (which was cracked) and possibly in his way to being compost, bought him (his name's Jimmy Ray) and he's been very happily living on the back deck all this time.
Last night, something knocked it off the deck and shattered the pot. I have no clue what might have done it, there weren't any paw prints on the ground. It didn't look like anything had been trying to eat it. My only guess is one of the neighbor's cats maybe was on the deck and rubbed up against the pot, pushing it off the edge. So Jimmy Ray got repotted and stashed in the laundry room for the night, since it's supposed to be 41 here.
Today I ran some errands and did general household stuff, so I stayed busy most of the day and will catch up on DW posts tomorrow.
I have a weird idea and it might be ... wrong, but hear me out. I have a package of tteokbokki in the fridge. I love these things in a spicy gochujang sauce with some shredded nori. I also have some cooked chickpeas and I'm considering making extra sauce and having rice cakes and chickpeas. This isn't Korean, obviously, but it sounds like it might be good. I'm going to at least try it in a small batch and the worst that happens is that it's disappointing. It might even be a good base for something like a vegan bibimbap (sp?) with some shredded greens and radishes 'n shit.
Anyway I'm dead tired, good night all.
