Peace and Quiet

The four of us (and Wrigley) went up to the mountains for Veterans weekend.  Three of the best days I've had in a loooong time.  I read by the fire, played games with the girls, nearly finished knitting my sweater (this tea leaves, again), oh and Jeff and I had a Harry Potter marathon.  I drank wine and ate yummy but really easy meals.  So cozy.  So relaxing.  Simply the best.

The most work I did was make salsa from these beauties.   I didn't have the recipe with me but pretty much followed the same one I made last year (here).

Okay, so it is not the prettiest but boy oh boy was it delicious.  With one bite I was reminded why I garden.  Satisfying on so many levels.

So now that we are home there is laundry to do and homework to finish but these task are almost enjoyable after a stress free weekend.  Bring on the work week, I'm ready.
