Today is the first day in weeks where the morning temp is less than 70 degrees. The high will be 81! Hoping to finish up the garden today. Yes, still a work in progress. Have to put mulch down. It is a beautiful feeling to have the warmth of the sun without it sucking the life out of me.
Trying to wake up with my morning coffee. Sipping it out of my cacti mug. Another tic I picked up from my mother. Mugs, mugs, mugs! I’d stopped buying them for a while, especially since I’d stopped selling ceramics on Etsy. But one day out of nowhere, I found myself walking the coffee mug/dish aisle at my local thrift and voila!
The weekend was short. We closed for the 4th and closed an hour early on the 5th because we had our rush and the streets were pretty quiet We figured it was because of the holiday weekend, NASCAR, Cubs game, etc. We were both tired and hot and done.
***Pause***
Still working on my Bottle Rocket story. It is a bit of a ramble. 639 words is a lot for me for sure. So as Archie Bell & the Drells sung, I need to “Tighten Up.”
I have dough proofing in the oven, going to attempt to make French bread for my mom and then Olive oil Banana cake for the restaurant. Wish me luck on the bread, as it will be a first for me! Ha!
Happy writing, happy reading!
