Is there no escape from that kitchen?

Again, I\’ll have to cook up stuff to freeze over the weekend.

I\’m thinking of making Mayocoba Madness, and I hope the celery I have is still good. I also must be using some of the refried beans I have on hand; there are too many cans in here!

Squashed sauce is on the list, too; and maybe soup. Then, of course, dishwashing! Is there no escape from that? The same goes for laundry; but I try to get the clothes done on Saturday, even if I\’ve been busy cooking all day. When I get back from a Sunday ride of 50-60 miles or so, I do not want to bother with washing clothes!

As usual, I\’ve got my eye on the forecasts. It looks like Sunday will be OK in the morning; and I hope the forecasters are right. Again, I expect to be out there on the bicycle for hours; and I hope it won\’t be as hot as this past Sunday.

I also hope that September won\’t be too hot and humid. Love to Ride has announced Cycle September; and of course this mileage hog wants to put in the miles. I even think that, if I\’m to do a century, I can do it in September instead of October.

My big concerns there are: September can be as miserably hot and humid as August; and September is often a busy month for hurricanes. I don\’t want to announce that I\’m going to ride 100 miles on a certain date; and then be forced to cancel it because of an excessive heat warning, or because Hurricane What\’s-Its-Name is bearing down upon us.

Always weather. Is there no escape?
