Summer Holiday Weekend Recap
Hello and happy Monday to you! Did you melt this weekend? My Lord it was hot. And what do you do when you're us on a hot weekend? Dig out a tree obviously. 😑 Remember the pic of the tree from last week after the landscapers hacked it up? It went bye-bye. We were going to attempt to save it to possibly see if my friend could plant it at her new home (even though it should be done when dormant.) Well, after determining the roots attach to the Earth's core, we had to scrap that idea. We tried to get out early enough but it wasn't.

For once, I have something different to report as plans for the weekend. I snagged a Groupon for tickets to a traveling exhibit of daVinci's wonderful machines, so we'll be visiting that this weekend.

ReplyDeleteRun to Utah tomorrow- Work on Sunday to get some grant work done in a quiet office. We had some great food this week- my favorite was the cajun shrimp over grits. Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great weekend! Couscous Fried Rice sounds really intriguing...
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the recipe for the shrimp over the cous cous "fried rice!" That looks yummy!
