Shrimps on the Barbie

That hammock pretty much sums up my Saturday. :)  Not that I didn’t get some things done (washed car, made breakfast cookies, whipped up some olive tapenade) but enjoying the sun was top on my priority list.

On Sunday I wrangled Michael away from his ongoing household projects so we could load the dogs in the truck and take a nice long walk in the sun.  It was hot, sweaty and glorious…love the gorgeous weather!

We finished the day by baking up a Peach-Blueberry Crisp and enjoying an air-conditioned movie.  The Dark Knight Rises did not disappoint.

Even thought today is a holiday here in BC, I’m spending a few hours sitting here in my jammies at Michael’s kitchen table doing some work for my regular job.  Nice to have a day off from my new office job though!  Lord knows more than a week of combing my hair and wearing real clothes was really wearing on me.  :)

Nothing wrong with eating Peach-Blueberry Crisp for breakfast either.

Happy BC Day!
