Hell, it's too damn hot to even wash dishes. Forecast for the week is way over 100°.

Stocked up. Have guests and cooked good steak and salad with melon/tomatoes/goat cheese last night. Ate in the cockpit at sundown. Wonderful night.

Tonight, not sure. Have to meet a guest in the little town, so may eat out.

Anyway, the weather and atmosphere are wonderful right now and DH is making bacon and crepes.

My kitchen is now super-clean.

I made an interesting salad with frisee', shaved fennel, red pepper, and purple cabbage. Very colorful. Made balsamic apricot vinaigrette to toss the salad with.

I made the meatballs and the sauce already. Just have to boil the pasta. I put lots of marjoram in the meatballs.

Off to the garden, first, however, to get in as much work as I can before dark.

Hey, cbayer, sounds like you're "back in the saddle," too!

I KNOW what my snack is tonight. Yesterday, I bought 3 big beautiful red bell peppers on
sale and I think I'm going to have 1 or 2 of them tonight with some low-sodium onion dip.

A good-snacked MFM is a happy MFM.
