Now. I sit

Putting away the groceries led to making a batch of ginger refrigerator pickles* and then some kitchen clean up... filling the bottom dishwasher and starting it. Emptying the top dishwasher and cleaning all the surfaces. Nice.

Then I decided to hook up my second TiVo via HDMI (it was via RCA cables and I can't remember why). I am working to eliminate some cords in ready for the new set. The hook up would have gone more smoothly had I realized that I used the HDMI 3 port, not the HDMI 1. Looking for it on HDMI 1 led to all manner of totally useless troubleshooting. DOH.

So in celebration of that last victory, I'm going to watch IT Crowd Series 4 which is finally working on my Netflix streaming.

My Ginger Refrigerator Pickles
*1/2 red onion sliced thinly
1 cucumber sliced thinly
2 Tablespoons fresh ginger chopped finely
Sprinkle of salt (I use kosher salt)

let sit in a covered bowl for an hour

bring 1/4 cup sugar and 3/4 white vinegar to a boil and then pour over the top of your cukes.

Refrigerate and enjoy. They stay crispy and good for weeks.
