Cod or tapioca?

Yesterday, I said “must do better tomorrow”. Well, I didn’t. I could not get to sleep last night, and wound up going off to (try to) sleep in the spare room. Failed at that, went downstairs for pen and paper to list all the pending tasks and get some hot milk. Did that help? Not one bit. I was switching the light on every few minutes to add things to the list. I must finally have drifted off, then forced myself back into a doze at regular intervals from 6 am on and finally emerged at nearly 10 a.m.
 
That set the pattern for the day – a go-slow. I got to the street market right at the end and bought lots of goodies at cost price, so we’ve just had a supper of shitake and button mushrooms and there’s asparagus and the ingredients for a good dish of roast veg in the fridge. The two stalls in the photo offer tapioca pancakes (very dry, but good vehicles for tasty toppings) and fried cod snacks.
 
Choir this evening and now we’re watching the run-up to the last Presidential debate. Might just record it, bed sounds like a better option just now. Good luck America, I don’t envy you your choices.
