Too lazy to make dough

Hi Natty!  How's life up there in the mountains?  I hope you are healthy, and enjoying yourself.  It's nearly summer, I supposed you are enjoying the warmth of the sun more.  Have some of mine!  It's actually cooler today than it has been: I was able to enjoy a nice nap in the afternoon on the floor, instead of settling for a short meditation on the chair.  I like sleeping on the floor.  It's one of the beneficial pleasures I acquired from being broke all these years, is that sleeping on the floor works wonders on your back.  I was never all that greedy, and this "nickel and dime" life has made me value things in terms of labor instead of cash.  I was too lazy to make dough today, so I bought a loaf of bread.  One kilo of flour is RM2.20 which makes 12 dough balls (one or two dough balls for a filling meal), while a loaf of bread is RM3.20.  Besides the price of a buck, I didn't have to put in the time and labor to make dough.  That's probably just today, though.  Sigh.  I'll go back to making dough again after this loaf of bread is gone probably.  There's the labor of having to go out and buy bread to take account of.

Please make sure you rake up those dry leaves and do composting or controlled burning!  Help prevent forest fires!
