Roasted peaches are delicious

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

The fruit dessert I always make on vacation is: cut into chunks (unless it's like, berries), toss with a little sugar + seasonings (whatever goes with the thing you have) then pour Bisquick on top (add liquids according to the box) and bake. Boom, instant cobbler.

Nice suggestions, thank you - wish I had bought more peaches now, ha! I will report back. I think one of them will go toward a peach salsa for some salmon that's defrosting for tomorrow, but the rest will get dessert treatment.

That was a long day and I am very tired. I think I lost my company swag water bottle, which seems ironic.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

That sounds fantastic!

So, I am getting a roommate for the rest of the summer. Brendon says he can't stay in the apartment because everything reminds him of her so she is staying and he is going to come stay with me while he figures things out. That is fine. I can use his help and I can work on helping him get his act together. I expect we'll try and find something in Florida by the end of summer. I have plenty of room for him in Otter Lake, but no room in Florida.
