Katie, I just noticed you are in Mexico. We used to go down sometimes when we lived in San Diego. I have several chicana friends there and did they ever cook excellent authentic Mexican food. Very different from the Americanized versions. Yum!

Amanda, I talked myself out of going to the grocery yesterday. So now I absolutely have to go today or we will be eating that box of baking soda that's been in the fridge for no telling how long. Either that or a can of sardines. Very good for you, sardines are, but DH isn't a fan. That little doggie of yours is getting such good care. You're a good doggie mama.

It is so cool here right now it's difficult to believe that August is only a few days away. We're in our hottest time of the year, but it ain't. :) I am not complaining. The most wonderful thing is the low humidity. Wowzers!

I slept like a log from 8 until just a short while ago. Don't know how to act. I must have something pithy to say but after feeding three cats and herding them out the door, I've forgotten what it might be.

Below is a shot of our resident groundhog "The General" in the yard. He spent a long time here yesterday.

And the butterflies on the Joe Pye Weed!!! It looked like a bush with wings. Lots of wings. There is a pair of Eastern Yellow Swallowtails, a male and a female, that are just beautiful. I've loved watching them cavort around that bush and the rest of the yard all summer. They are always together.

Got to go make mental preparation to grocery shop.
