I got some quality time with family (what's left of them) yesterday. Still can't believe my cousin is gone, since he was pretty much Lebowski's rug and really pulled the family together.
I'm sorry, Connie.
G Adventures (used to be GAP travel I think?) but it's a tour they do along with National Geogrphic so I assumed it would be an older crowd
Yeah, that's cool. I would have assumed tours (other than Extreme Adventure, I guess?) would be all older couples or groups or something. Maybe I will take a solo adventure sometime!
Cheers for Matt and billytea, commiseration for Jess and Sheryl.
Yeah, it's interesting we are all solo except the one couple. Everyone seems pretty cool. Today we did coffee tasting (I think I can't really tell what's good, I liked the cheap over-roasted stuff). The hotel here is way better than the other place—there's an infinity pool! Though the thunderstorm means now it's a little cold for that
Had a nice run with my niece and her new puppy in the woods this morning, and now I'm fussing about getting ready to host the whole family for dinner. It will require getting 2 chairs out of the garage. I have done an experiment: a peach galette with frangipane underneath the peaches. Hope it works! (Clearly I have been watching too much GBBO.)
That sounds delicious to me, Suela! I love frangipane
It's come out of the oven but it will be several hours before we discover if it worked... The crust tastes pretty great, anyway.
Television has never mattered more? Take it down a notch, Emmys.
I just started watching with a delay, and I already feel like this is going to be a no from me, dog.
This is also the first time in a very long time that I've watched commercials. Can't say I'm a fan.
I have it paused while I do some packing and showering. When I went to dog training this morning he said he couldn't make next week so I made a snap decision to make a run to Florida since I will be able to be there 9 days.
So driving all day tomorrow and Tuesday and will hopefully manage to surprise DH when he finds me at home after practice Tuesday. I won't have to head back until the 4th, and by then hopefully he will be able to join me. A little crazed tonight, but don't really have to pack too much. Hope to leave by 6 AM so I get past DC before afternoon crunch.
Yes, I have lost my mind.
