Fish tacos and homegrown tomatoes

I woke up this morning, early as usual, around 3:00. I found a light on in the living room, where Kate had left her bedroom and went downstairs to watch tv or a movie, and probably drink tea. I turned off the light and went back to bed, to be awakened by the shower going on from Cindy taking her morning shower. I went into the kitchen, took Tex out, then fixed my breakfast. Cindy came in to the living room after her shower and suggested (is that the right word?) that I water the plants on the patio. She gently reminded me that the tomato plant (perhaps the only plant on the patio that I really care about that much)might need water in the morning, otherwise, it might just start failing.

So, I trudged out and watered the plants on the patio. I found that one of my tomatoes had fallen off. I took it inside to try to ripen on the window in the kitchen. If not, I guess its fried green tomatoes one night this week.

I made Cindy's coffee, took my shower, dressed and waited for Cindy to come out of the bedroom. I realized that it would be somewhat of a loss to try to wake Kate to take Cindy this morning, so I just assumed the duties.

Now I am at the office, waiting for the day to start in earnest. My eyes are droopy. My limbs are dragging. I have several tasks which need to be completed this morning.

If I can get this completed, I will carry on.

Last night, Kate and I made fish tacos for supper. Now we have a ton of grilled halibut in the refrigerator. Cindy is sure we must finish it off today otherwise it needs to be thrown out. I think we could do something with it before it must leave. The fish tacos were excellent. And yes, I knew the poblano peppers would get hot if you left the seeds in. But, I wanted a little heat. Those peppers add just the right amount of heat with the pepper flavor. Or so Kate and I thought.
