With just 41 days left until the start of RAGBRAI, life has become even more predictable than usual around here. My waking hours are spent at work, doing the daily tasks required to keep us fed and clothed, and bike riding. Things could certainly be worse!
picking - recipes based on the contents of the CSA box we pick up on Saturdays. Last week the abundance of greens (lettuce, spring mix, spinach, collards, and bok choy) was broken up by some super fresh strawberries and the first rhubarb of the season.
going - out of state for two week trips this month (OH & TX), then a camping trip a bit closer to home at the end of June. Looking forward to returning to Rocky Gap State Park, with its lake and close proximity to the junction of the Great Allegheny Passage and C&O Trail for some back-to-back, traffic-free bike rides.
wishing - that half-day Fridays were mandatory in the summer. I worked a half-day from home on Friday to wrap something up, then Keizo and I headed out for a bike ride on a not-so-crowded trail. It was awesome! I need to check my PTO balance and see if I can make half-day Fridays at least a semi-regular thing, especially while the weather is good.
wearing - more color and more dresses and skirts to work. This is in part due to a lack of suitable work pants, but more driven by the weather and my desire to be as comfortable as possible all of the time.
celebrating - the newest member of the extended family by bringing brunch over to my cousin's last Sunday and meeting little Emalynn. A good part of the visit was spent playing frisbee outside with her older brother (who's 4), but I also got some sweet, sleeping baby snuggles in before we left.
Linking up with Anne; please stop by to see what others are up to this month!
