Simmering on the stove behind me is a huge pot of home-made pasta sauce.  A homemade &#8220;scrumptious&#8221; apple pie is cooling on a rack on the counter.<\/p>\n<p>The bread oven is baking four loaves of bread, three of which are intended for a few of my &#8220;elder buds&#8221; who like my home-made bread.  Heck, if I am making one loaf, making a few more is very easy and quick to do.<\/p>\n<p>My partner&#8217;s &#8220;honey-do list&#8221; for chores around the house had abated, so I had time to bake and cook, which I love to do.  My partner enjoys helping.  It was a beautiful day outside; however, I was tired from being out late on Saturday night, and also I was experiencing some side-effects from the regular seasonal flu shot that I got on Saturday.  Further, I had developed a rather bad case of &#8220;the trots&#8221; caused by the ice used for a soft drink served at the bar on Saturday night.  Unfortunately, DC water does that to me.<\/p>\n<p><a onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_yytsDp42pSs\/SskoEie4QtI\/AAAAAAAABs8\/E7GNxchFNAE\/s1600-h\/Ravioli.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 261px; height: 138px;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_yytsDp42pSs\/SskoEie4QtI\/AAAAAAAABs8\/E7GNxchFNAE\/s320\/Ravioli.jpg?w=584\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5388882487566418642\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a>So I chose to stay home and cook on Sunday, rather than get out and ride.  I do not like to ride my Harley when I am not feeling well and not at peak performance.  I felt divided, as I know the riding season is growing short, and there will not be many days like this when I could enjoy a ride without other obligations hanging over my head.  But I just wasn&#8217;t feeling strong enough.<\/p>\n<p>Life is short:  enjoy your home!<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here I am on Sunday afternoon running pasta through the pasta press from which we made several batches of home-made cheese ravioli.
