Afterward, I took a ride around the neighborhood on the bike. \u00a0Earlier in the afternoon, I\u00a0bought an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.walmart.com\/ip\/Oster-Designed-For-Life-Extra-Large-Convection-Countertop-Oven\/13729291\">Oster convection oven<\/a> which can roast lots of veggies at once, an entire eggplant along with peppers, onions and squash. \u00a0I tried it out last night.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s my first convection oven. First I hit the BAKE button for 20 minutes at 375. Not much seemed to happen. Then I discovered the TURBO\/CONVECTION button and did that at 375 for 35 minutes. My eggplant and zucchini were in chunks about 1&#8243; x 2&#8243;. \u00a0It was awesome.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday morning I woke up early and made <a href=\"http:\/\/goddessgrub.com\/blog\/?p=511\">Asian Spiced broccoli salad<\/a>, along with my <a href=\"http:\/\/goddessgrub.com\/blog\/?p=135\">10 Minute Parsley Hummus<\/a>. \u00a0We took a bike ride and then a drive along the beach during the rain. \u00a0It was stormy on the way home. We pulled off the road and watched the ocean awhile, then exchanged vowels. I got an a and an e. We came home and feasted on broccoli salad, hummus and pita points, and a yummy hot soup with rice. A much needed relaxing Sunday after a crazy busy week. \u00a0I dug up several loquat saplings last week and tomorrow a few friends will come get them. I love sharing what I have an abundance of. \u00a0And lately that&#8217;s been all Love, Love, Love. And loquat saplings.<\/p>\n<div id=\"s-share-buttons\" class=\"horizontal-w-c-circular s-share-w-c\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/a-rainy-lazy-bicycle-sunday\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to Facebook\" class=\"s3-facebook hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=A rainy, lazy, bicycle Sunday.
