| Dinner for a Hot Night |
|
|
One day it was 103 and one morning it was 50....St. Paul doesn't seem to be able to decide between hot and cold. Windows closed. Water everything green that's dying out there. Runs to Menard's for air conditioners. Calls to St. Paul Heating and Cooling for help. (Like everyone else in town.) Ach, windows open. And now it's cold...close them again. So goes summer. Meantime, the roses are blooming...
As are the later peonies, irises, and late lilacs.

Hostas burned in the heat, but tomatoes loved it and grew 2 inches, I think. I now have baby tomatoes. BLTS here we come.
Our house painters are done. Now we're trying to figure out how to make our furniture fit.
Meantime, we have Emily home and she's been busy perfecting her Pad Thai game:
While I serve as chief bottle washer. Sous chef sounds better, doesn't it?
