Ran in place to ⁴ᴷ Paris walking tour 🇫🇷 Back streets and shopping streets of Le Marais, France 4K via Silent Walker on YouTube. Breakfast at home with Patrick: oatmeal with milk, cinnamon, diced banana, dried tart cherry; water. Nap for both. I spent the entire day continuing to prepare our tax filings. Patrick prepared a soup for tonight's dinner. Lunch: Patrick had yogurt. I had leftover rice with leftover garlic bok choy. Still hungry, so I had a snack: some wheat crackers with white cheddar. Patrick prepared risotto balls. Recently our Miele S2121 Capri canister vacuum was not performing as well as it had in the past. So today I disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled its STB 205 Turbo Brush floorhead using Miele Turbo Nozzle Maintenance STB205 -Miele Vacuum Repair via Performance Reviews on YouTube as a guide (despite the "Please do not try this at home!" warning). All turned out well, and now I have a Turbo Brush that's essentially good as new. I was initially hesitant to perform the maintenance, but the Miele design was simple and logical. The greatest danger is probably losing track of all the pieces. This afternoon Patrick made Steve P's ricotta balls (zeppole ricotta). They turned out so well we ate three each. Dinner at home with Patrick: red lentil stew with lemon over steamed rice. I washed dishes and continued taxes work. Patrick went to bed. I washed more dishes. Late snack: grilled colby cheese sandwich on previously frozen sourdough slices with butter, water.
