etc.

We’ve been camping this weekend and there was food and fun aplenty, a pig roast (with an apple in its mouth!), beer, kids, a pinata, fireworks, and an impressive camp fire made even more impressive once last year’s dried up Christmas tree and multiple bales of hay showed up. And tonight for supper, the freshest corn I’ve had, picked a mere four hours before it hit the pot of boiling water on our stove, followed up with sugar pears, also picked this morning. Good times.

And now, here we are at the very end of July and I haven’t yet made my sock monkey (even though I’ve had the socks for it for weeks, donated by the very kind Mel; the sock backstory is here), nor has my copy of the book arrived for the Modern Quilt-Along (even though I have ordered the book three times: once from amazon.com, once from amazon.ca, and the last time from chapters.ca; the first two had to be cancelled on account of the orders not having been shipped days after they were scheduled to arrive! The tracking info on the last order tells me that it’s on the way, guess who isn’t holding her breath?). I won’t even start in on all the other craft, work, and library-type things I haven’t yet done because that would just put my brain in a fog, and that is no way to wind down a long weekend.

But, a very good way to wind down a long weekend would be to brew up a cup of Oolong and visit all my blog friends, which is exactly what I am going to do. Away, fog! Onward!
