I had a great breakthrough this morning in the making of hash, of a particular variety that my Grandmother used to produce. When she stayed with us in the summer we always had a hot meal at lunch which was the legendary hash. It was always made of leftovers from past dinners. My grandmother was a study in “waste not want not”. She got here training in Poland at the turn of the twentieth century.
Anyway, back to this morning, there it was a reasonable facsimile of grqndma’s hash setting before me. The same ingredients that I have used previously but put them together in a different order. Yes, so simple. Thank you Grandma. She was probably looking over my shoulder.
I think that this blog post has to do with mentoring. Just got done reading Steve Watkin’s blog post on “noteaday” blog and it is about mentors I think. I think that because it just started on the first of the year and I am seeing the pattern. Each day Steve features a different personality from his personal experience that we need to know about. Someone that he personally had learned from.
Just starting to see mentoring as a process where culture is passed down and improved. We are a part of that process. My grandmother was a part of that process. And I still who is trying to achieve the “perfect” hash am a part of that process.
Yup, alperfect here at the ranch. We have a walk today at 3:30. Kelly said that he is showing up. Bill is trying to make it. So, have some things to do before that and off I go. The best to you, love your hash, Felipe.
I’m pretty sure my life is hash- Lots of leftovers put together in a new way to make a beautiful thing.
Love you! Wish I was walking with you today!
Esther ~ It was cold walking today but Kelly came so I had company. Yea, the whole hash deal has possiblies, right? We will have to work on it. Felipe.x
Hiya Buddy-
More snow here. Ducks and geese only fly when I can’t get up to the ponds. Beautiful though. Saw a bobcat the other evening. Tracks this morning. Snow gets one closer to wildlife in that way.
Will you post or send link to Steve’s blog? I like that theme.
Chin deep in trying to stay ahead of the cognitive and physical decline of the 92 and 95 yr old in laws, living separately. No longer really capable of living alone, but not much choice with a lot more $ than either of them have.
Like my friend Tim told his mom: Yeah Mom, I know. But it’s like this– the car rusts out and the wheels fall off.
So true.
It’s really a hash time of year– leftovers from last year and looking forward to spring.
