Having a heat wave

We're having a heat wave.....

A tropical heat wave.....

The temperature's rising 

It isn't surprising....

She certainly can can-can!

Bowser Beer - Yummy

It's called beer, looks like beer, but isn't beer....but there's an Airedale enjoying the doggie refreshment!

Weekend Ball

 So we had a fun weekend visiting Baltimore MD and to see the Phillies play the Orioles.  Friday Matt and I went by ourselves and my 'bad luck charm' status had a reprieve!   And the Phils won one!

On Saturday 2 of my sisters came down.  We walked Baltimore Inner Harbour and had a great Mexican lunch.

The Stadium has the  original 'old ballpark' look and it was really beautiful!

We had seats 7 rows from the field but the sun shone on us all day.  It was hot but more importantly we were worried about our 'young Irish' skin all day!  Even tho we had 100 sunblock on!  The good news is not a single one of us got sun burn. The bad news is the Phillies lost.

Oh well it was a wonderful beautiful weekend trip!

Violet got to stay overnight with this guy, brother Quincey.  She's still tired!  haha

Dance Walk Fun

Young sportsmanship

I love sportsmanship stories like this.  You all know we like our sports so this made me happy.

Summer goodies

I like summer, not love summer because I hate the sweltering, humidity and heat.  However,  luckily that hasn't happened yet, so Violet and I are in heaven.  It's warm and breezy and perfect for eating and playing outdoors. Matt LOVES the heat and humidity. He's in the backyard alone in August...haha

Summer has sprung alittle early and to the farmer's market we go.  This is out stash from Sunday.

Strawberries were so sweet and juicy. They'll be gone by tonight.

The cherries are so delectable I wished I had another pint.

Breakfast was outside on Sunday.  LOVE THAT!  The big Sunday breakfast including strawberries, fried eggs, bacon, scrapple and toast.  YUMMO!  These kinds of breakfast bring fond memories of Sunday's at Nana's after church.

I also made bread on Sunday.  I know crazy right?  'Artisan bread in 5 minutes' has a fairly simple recipe and the loaf turned out just lovely and tasty.  I mean it was nothing special but the crust was crunchy and the bread tasty yet alittle doughy - but it was my first try.  And anything with butter on it has to be good right?

What a great home down Sunday in Delaware.
