For breakfast today...

I had a craving for salmon and potatoes.

So...

I took them out of the deep freeze and began preparing them.

I decided that I would butter sautée the salmon...

...and for the potato wedges...

I just baked them at 425 F for 30 minutes.

I love potatoes...

and so...

I bought about 20 lbs of frozen potato wedges...

some pre-seasoned...and some not.

I started by melting a half a stick of butter in a pan as I defrosted the salmon...

and as the potatoes were baking.

This was the salmon I would cook.

I had it on medium heat...

then salt and peppered them as they cooked.

The potatoes were done...

and the salmon was almost done.

I had the larger piece of salmon...

and I gave Bandi the smaller portion...

and some fries.

I still have some leftover salmon and fries...

so...

I am thinking of making fish sandwiches tomorrow.

I poured Ponzu on my piece of salmon.

It was so good.

This was my version of Fish and Chips.

------------

As it is not supposed to rain or snow for at least the next week...

I started on sealing the carpets I had lain yesterday.

After I had finished...

I realized I would have to wait until tomorrow to lay the side carpets...

as it was too windy.

Had I tried today...

the wind would have kept lifting the carpet

during the measuring phase.

But...

no worries.

I now have an open weather window of many days.

I am supposed to get my delivery of sealant tomorrow.

If it is still windy then...

I will just start waterproofing the upper and lower railings.

----------------

As it is still rather early in the day...

I am thinking of just resting in bed for a few hours...

perhaps taking a nap...

and afterwards...

 brewing some peppermint tea...

and then practicing some music in the loft.

As there are clouds in the sky...

I am hoping for a beautiful sunset once again.

As I lay in bed...

if I notice colors forming...

I will come back up to the loft and go out on to the 3rd deck to take more photos.

------------

While not spectacular...

it was another nice and serene sunset.

And so closes another day.

I will now brew some tea...

come back up to the loft...

and work some more on my cover song

(I still have a long way to go).
