Scout isn't feeling very well, so we went outside to work in the garden, because he likes to hang out with me there. And look! Hellebores are coming up around the pond. It definitely gave my heart a much-needed lift.
But I think I'll call the vet tomorrow if Scout doesn't seem better. I just listened to a show where Karen Fine, who's promoting her new book The Other Family Doctor, talked about her life as a veterinarian--so I have the feeling "doesn't seem like himself" is a perfectly acceptable symptom.
At stopped by for family dinner, and I made Kothu Paratha, which is typically made from leftover parathas and curry... which we didn't have. So I made everything from scratch and now we have some tasty leftovers.
While At was here, they got a text from Jaz Brisak for the first time and it was fun seeing them figure out what to text back without sounding too much like a stan. I think excitement was definitely warranted; I mean, I was excited. Then At and I went for a long walk-and-talk in the springy drizzle. Lots of walking, lots of talking--until it got too wet and cold for me, and I caved and suggested we go inside.
And that's the end of the weekend! But Nu is on Spring Break this week, so things should feel a little lighter.

I love the effort of a from-scratch meal that makes leftovers maybe more than one that uses them. Yay for signs of spring!
That recipe looks really good. I love paratha.
I hope Scout's okay.
There's nothing worse than calling a vet with the vaguest of symptoms. I'm so sorry and I hope Scout's well and you don't have to make that call.
Also called lenten roses.
Thank you for sending Scout good wishes, Steph and NGS ♥️
