Pressure Cooker

Wonder what I am going to talk about? So many things run through my mind. The pressure cooker has been in use all week. Not the weather, but the one on the stove. Not to mention the one in my head .......

The weather has been insane. One day this week I was tempted to start working on my gardens and planting seeds. It was in the upper 70's. I carefully pulled back dead leaves on the ground to reveal tiny green shoots working their way to the surface of the ground ....... like Spring. The air even smelled like Spring, fresh and earthy. Two days later, it is snowing and the wind is frigid. A real pressure cooker for serious weather events.

No wonder I have been blowing my nose all day. Like the weather, I am hot one minute and cold the next. My upper region is hot and my lower regions are cold. I am pretty miserable.

The pressure cooker on the stove has been churning out soups and stews to soothe my scratchy throat ........

My head felt like a pressure cooker on Wednesday. Must have been the barometer wreaking havoc with my sinuses.
