It’s raining this morning in Holland Michigan. I shut off Bjork so I could listen to the rain while I do this blog post. Eileen is spending a couple of nights with Barb in Kalamazoo. She suggested I do something with cooked cabbage while she was gone. I have avoided cooking cabbage since she doesn’t like the smell of it so it would be a good idea.

So I used Mollie Katzen’s Chili Cabbage recipe as a reference(Click on the pic above for the entire recipe). I substituted portobello and white mushrooms for the shitake mushrooms. The only peppers I had in the house were some frozen roasted small mostly sweet peppers. I used rice vinegar and omitted the tofu. The result was spectacular. Leigh gave me two heads of cabbage and I already had most of one sitting in the fridge. I used it for this recipe.

I was exploring the CDs that came with my Greek Text this morning. It’s been a while since I have used them. I thought I had ripped them to one of the computers but that must have been one of the ones that is defunct now. I set out to rip them. Sheesh. I downloaded Exact Audio Copy which was cumbersome to get set up. I farted around with it and then remembered that I used DB Power Amp in the past. I looked at that but it’s only a 30 day trial and costs around $40. Then I thought I would just use the windows media player to listen to it. Lo and behold, it had a rip function. So I ripped the CDs.

I uploaded them to my Google Drive and will be able to access them from any device in the future. That’s the good news. The bad news is the chapter I am working on isn’t on the CD. It skips a bunch of chapters and includes more of the difficult chapters ahead. Dang.

But another piece of good news was I practiced Hanon while the CD was being ripped.

I had my Chili Cabbage mixture for breakfast as well. I dumped some of it in the small frying pan then added whipped egg white. Yum. I’m planning a farmers market visit in the rain in a bit.
