my dad sent some kale from his garden. tomorrow i want to cook the beets, but i can't promise anything because tuesday=farmers market. i bought some really delicious onions last week and i need more. also, lots of fresh flowers for super cheap. we've been keeping flowers all over the house.
we did something awesome with a sofa that hillary's dad gave us...it's almost finished. more rearranging and planning and everything that we can until i start my job.

here's a blurry picture of my sister eating havarti in the kitchen.

ooooh.

for lunch I had fresh pepper on caramelized onions on avocado on a veggie burger on monterey jack on lettuce.


i watched some fireworks tonight from my front porch.

also look how cute my roommate is:

green eyed monsters

this was after he brought it inside the first time to play in the living room; this is when he brought it back and let it wiggle around dying in my house. i'm so proud.

i eat.

i'd be really really happy to spend all of my time making salad dressings.

almond vinaigrette- olive oil, hazelnut oil, white balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, minced almonds, fresh ground pepper.
salad- spring mix, sauteed halloumi cheese, cucumber, green apple.

ninety-nine degrees every day.

june is for bailing friends out of jail. june is for dancing in the kitchen without pants on, listening to zz top and nothing else for days.

potato salad secret recipes! well, it's a different recipe every time i make it, but...whatever. close enough. and grilled halloumi on a sandwich with sprouts and avocado...







and that...is the most awesome "cordless sweeper you'll ever see.

i spoil myself.

sleep in. apple sauce. honey ginger lemonade (this one isn't as good as how i used to make it but the ginger tingles the back of my throat long after the other flavors are gone) and local sun dried tomato goat cheese on toast.


we have new dishes. we have a dining room table and chairs. we've been grilling every week, going to the river, cleaning, and sitting in the pool.



(best summer ever)

happy june!
