Car Quandary

March 23rd, 2005 at 01:43 pm

Laundry has piled up again and I need to catch up. It's a wet and soggy day out there though, so no hanging outdoors. Even clothes hanging inside will take an eternity to dry in damp weather like this -- still, using the dryer isn't an option. Hang inside they shall....

DH and I are still trying to figure out what we want to ask for the car we intend to sell. It's a '96 Honda Accord LX in nice condition, with low mileage (only 80,000). It was involved in a fender bender when someone hit me last year in the front left quarter panel, but that was mostly cosmetic and it was all fixed. Due to its' age, it does need a bit of work otherwise -- the timing belt and the radiator (high ticket work). But the guy we took it to yesterday for an oil change at the Honda dealership ($29.99) said it looked pretty good overall and with the necessary work could easily withstand another 200,000 miles. Argh, it's hard to know what to do....

I made tostada-y things for dinner, with the beans I scratched cooked in a huge batch a few months ago, and froze in meal-sized portions (using a recipe from the "Make A Mix" book). Last night I thawed/heated and mashed some for refried beans -- very handy (they've also been good in chili). I have several more bags in the freezer to use, but when those are through I intend to cook up another big batch again, because the're really a time saver for busy nights....
