Framed

Something odd has been happening on my desktop computer.

At intervals (it appears to be once an hour, at about the :45 mark), a small, empty, and transparent frame appears on the (primary) monitor; it grows rapidly, to perhaps 20% of the screen, then vanishes. The event takes less than a second, so I haven't been able to catch what process is involved.

Should I be worried?

ETA: I now find that, for that split-second, it also grabs focus.

Peanuts

Last week, for one reason or another, I went with frozen dinners. Today, though, I decided to cook again, and made a pot of Thai Peanut Chicken. It's a pretty easy dish - only a few ingredients, with easy prep. (Chicken, peanut sauce, carrots, green onions, rice, peanuts, cilantro, red bell pepper - and I left out the last two.) The only halfway exotic ingredient was the peanut sauce, but if you can find it at the Edwardsville Shop'n'Save, you can probably find it just about anywhere. Slow-cooker, of course.

It's definitely on the picante side, but the first helping was very tasty. Things usually improve the second or third time around, so I'm looking forward to tomorrow.

:pats belly:
