Mussel-ing in tonight

Granted not a great shot, but I was in too much of a hurry to eat them. Love mussels, but have never cooked them before - nothing to it. But, but, but, it is all about the broth. Mine was good, but plenty of room to improve. Maybe curry or lemongrass next time?

Back to work today, catching up. Car battery was dead though so neighbor-John to the rescue. He is our mechanic (and everyone else's on the street) and neighborhood watchdog. If you want to know what is going on you talk to John. He is always in motion. He is either on his scooter, his bicycle, or feet scouting the streets. John is a retired fleet mechanic and runs a little fix-it business out of his garage. We always say that when we sell our house we will include him as one of the features in the listing. Anyway, he came right over to have a look and will report back.

Jet lag lingering, but I like being up early.
