Slow & laid back weekend

We’ve had a pretty quiet and laid back weekend which was a nice change of pace.  I’m especially relaxed as yesterday I nipped off for a nice little two hour massage followed by lunch with my friend Judy while Eammon spent the day with Maisie.  Today we had a lazy, slow start and then Steve and I pulled veggies and fruits from the garden.  Today’s harvest included a couple of cucumbers, lots of grape & cherry tomatoes, jalapeno peppers, two gala melons, one huge super-sweet watermelon, basil and then late this afternoon I pulled 4 pounds of spinach and didn’t even make a dent in what’s out there.  We also harvested some of the pumpkins and just a few of our butternut squashes.  K & Maisie were more than happy to pose for a picture with the squash, now let’s hope that they’ll enjoy eating some of it too because there’s a lot more where this batch came from!

We have two weeks before school starts so Maisie and I are going to hook up with some friends, enjoy our last little bit of summer fun-times together and also get prepared for the school year.  Maisie is so excited to return to school and especially to see her classmates again.
