Well, I just made a pretty good corn, tomato, and basil salad with my farmers market haul from Thurs. -- and a lovely lemon vinaigrette, if I do say. But there's a lot, and my DH is eating, basically, mush food until he gets a crown for his cracked tooth Thursday. I feel like it'll be too watery to freeze... oh! I will take some to my aunt. Boom. Problem solved. Thanks for playing along.

I had a completely draggy, sleepy day yesterday post vaccine and not sleeping much the night before. I'd like to accomplish some things today. Laundry and some fun reading. I did just do stage one of kitchen cleaning, so there's that.

What are you all up to today?

It's pretty nice here. Maybe puppo will get a long walk.

It is supposed to be in the 80s here today, but bonfire is on my list as I have a lot of debris that needs to go. So pyromaciac day for me. Then my next door neighbors invited us over for drinks later, and they will be deserved at that point.

My aunt invited us to dinner, so that'll be nice. My cousin and her husband may join, too.

OK, spent.some time on finances, so now I will start laundry, then put away dishes and load the dishwasher.

I spent 7/3–7/4 with my sister at their boat. There were fireworks one marina over, so we just turned our lawn chairs in their direction and watched. There was one yahoo who tried to play God Bless the USA, but his wife or whatever must have been lagging. So it sounded like, “I’m proud to say I’m an . . . American, where . . . [breakup noises] . . . I know . . . I’m . . . free . . . “ Symbolism?

We went foraging with friends for wineberries and then Bob made us pancakes and we had brunch out back.

That sounds pleasant, Calli, minus the stupid song.

Yum, lisah!

Laundry load one ready to turn, second and final dishwasher load running, hand wash dishes done!

I also made a tomato, basil topping for my sourdough bread using up the vinaigrette from earlier. Also yum.
