Life: It Goes On - May 4

Spring has finally sprung - the farmer's markets have started! Scheduled another staycation this weekend in Lincoln to coincide with the start of their downtown farmer's market which we haven't been to in years. Got to see an old friend who has a booth there, spend time with the Big Guy's sister and her granddaughter, and pick up a dozen plants including heirloom tomatoes, two kinds of basil and, for the first time, lettuce. Can't wait to get out this afternoon and yet our garden started.
We were home three hours then headed out again to watch a baseball game with Mini-him and his girlfriend. Finished our night off with a stop at the coffee shop where Mini-me works. What a fun weekend we've had but time to buckle down today and get something done!

Here's What I'm:

Listening To: Still listening to Laura Lippman's No Good Deeds.

Watching: "The Bletchley Circle" and "Mr. Selfridge" on PBS on Sunday nights.
 
Reading: The Pearl That Broke Its Shell by Nadia Hashimi for an upcoming TLC Book Tours review.

Making: Chicken, chicken - it was all about chicken this week. We had all of that chicken I made last week to use. Barbecue, salad, and sandwiches. I'm thinking it's time for some beef today!

Planning: Gardens!

Grateful for: A lot of relaxing fun and and a lot of family time this weekend.

Loving: Throwing windows open and knowing we'll soon be able to do that every day...until it's too hot.

Feeling: Happy - the new summer clothes I've been buying are in smaller sizes!

Thinking: I could make a fortune if I could figure out a way to make cats stop shedding. So. Tired. Of. Vacuuming.

Looking forward to: Suppers on the patio, grilling, and flower shopping.
