Beating the Heat


It's been so hot around here! I mean it is summer, so I shouldn't complain. Keeping everyone cool is a task. I'm the biggest complainer of the bunch! Thankfully the beach is close by and always cooler than home. I gave the chickens a nice cool summer treat, packed up my beach bag and a new library book and off I went. 



Turning the oven on when it's hot out probably isn't the smartest thing but I had some huge zucchinis from my mom's garden that needed to be used. I mentioned zucchini bread and my middle son was very excited. So the oven went on...

I used this simple recipe but left out the walnuts. It's so easy and delicious.



Loving the fresh flowers from the garden. I have a collection of old bottles my grandparents found many, many years ago and I have been using them for small arrangements throughout the house.


I spent some lazy time on Sunday on the couch with Buddy and my family. We watched the show Quarterback on Netflix. We're really enjoying it. We are also finishing up Ted Lasso. I love it! We only have two episodes left. Going to miss it!

I enjoyed my weekly Monday morning coffee/knitting time today. Our friend had a visitor and it was so nice to have another knitter around the table. Knitters are instant friends!



This is the update of my Here Comes the Sun sweater. I'm almost done with the yoke. Cruising right along.
 


Have a great week! Today I am celebrating my 24th wedding anniversary. Tomorrow is my youngest's 12th birthday. I swear he was just born! Lots of celebrating to do :)
