Initially, because I got a musk melon instead of watermelon in my CSA box – and the farmers<\/a> I buy from, Tipi Produce, grow really good watermelons. But they sell to Willy Street<\/a>, too, so I bought a chunk of one of their watermelons at the co-op and it’s in the fridge waiting to be eaten.<\/p>\n

And now it’s turned into Sunday evening of a weekend when I did a fair amount of cooking: corn salsa, and sausage-egga-english muffins, and rosemary fried potatoes for Sunday breakfast, and caponata, and a long-rise no knead oatmeal bread, and a gratin of mixed summer & fall vegetables; potatoes, tomatoes, purple onions – but only one picture to show for it. I made pie dough, but no pie. Maybe I’ll get around to writing up some of the recipes, later on.<\/p>\n

It was just kind of a poop out weekend – we didn’t go to the Orton Park Fest<\/a> nor see any bands; we didn’t go to a movie. We DID go to Ride the Drive<\/a> – but we only did one loop.<\/p>\n

Just disappointing, overall.<\/p>\n

Last year after Ride the Drive, I went up to Minnesota to help Al move. This year we’re leaving Monday morning, instead. Plus Al’s so grown up – I don’t need to rent a big vehicle to hold all his stuff overnight – I’m just helping him throw out the old furniture he doesn’t want – like the $10 dorm desk from UW’s university surplus<\/a> – and giving him $$ to go to IKEA. I made a lot of food<\/a> to take last year – this year the caponata is coming with me, and a hunk of Framer John’s Asiago.<\/p>\n
