| Bill has been riding away in the morning. July mornings are glorious. |
| The lilies are blooming! |
| The volunteer sunflowers are shining their pretty faces all over the garden. |
And about that "sponge" cake. I had to throw it away today. It was not spongy. It was dense and resistant to the knife. Tomorrow, I am going to do something a bit more purposeful than crocheting a sweater for a watermelon. Smile. Thank you for stopping in to chuckle at my exuberant handiwork. Our kids still tease me about a really big mitten I made years ago. When I told Kelli about the apple-gone-watermelon cozy, she said, "Well, I guess watermelons need cozies, too."
