Hello! Long time no blog! I hope you are all doing well. I hope you are not melting in the summer heat (if you are up here on this side of the equator!) I am melting a little. But as you can see in the photo above, I'm still knitting cozy things.
Miss Bug went to Spain to be a part of a mission trip. We were so happy when she got home. Do you like the hat I made her?
I made a quiche (a crustless one) because my mom was talking about a Costco quiche. It was very pretty! I didn't follow a recipe but I think the key ingredient is cottage cheese. It was tasty!
I'm trying to keep the flowers I planted well hydrated! Bill has been helping me water. I DO have five pumpkin patches (well, I planted two pumpkin seeds in the front garden so that isn't really a whole patch). They are growing! The leaves are huge! I shall be a happy pumpkin farmer when there are pumpkins in August!
Now we have two married granddaughters! CB's wedding last November was beautiful and Birdie's wedding was beautiful as well! Do you like my fascinator? Isn't Kelli's dress gorgeous! She was golden!
I woke up this morning thinking about how I can best happily navigate the heat of summer. I could go to the pool, but I feel shy about that for some reason. I went for a short walk today to the Little Library on the path by the park and that wasn't unbearable, so I need to go early. I've been eating watermelon and hot dogs. I aim to sit outside on the patio a bit more, soaking in the sight of the green grass and the growing pumpkin patches.
Soon Kelli and I are heading up to see my sweet mama. I am so thankful when one of the kids goes with me. Jenny has been several times, too. Brad went and I hope to take Jeff (or Christie!) soon.
It will be fun to see my homeland!
I'm hoping you are feeling light hearted and buoyant today! Are you doing anything exciting over the summer (or winter)? Are you reading something interesting?
God be with you, faithful friend.
