I disturbed a lot of dust this evening but it only took about 10 minutes to put the new RAM cards in the computer. It took longer to dust the area and unplug everything before opening the case. And now my flatbed scanner (the older, better one) is connected to the new computer (I neglected to get a long enough USB cable when I rearranged the office some months ago). I came across a small box of tiny photos that came from my grandmother, set on the shelf there to scan. Now maybe I'll do it.

The sauce is finished, most of it frozen, and tomorrow I'll do dinner of eggplant parm. Another giant cucumber presented itself in the garden this morning. How do they do that? I look so carefully, sometimes circling the vines two or three times to pick, and then the next morning, right there in front, is a 12" cuke. The seeds are tough, but my daughter tells me that her chickens adore the seeds in these huge cucumbers. I think I have three of them to hand off tomorrow.
