Summer Notes- Wednesday, August 14th. 75 degrees and 68% humidity...Sunshine.



 Roasted Tomato Tart.   Back in the "Olden Days"...when I successfully grew tomatoes...I would have made this tart.  But I am much older now and- well, uncovering and watering the three ornamental containers out front- that's about it for me, these days.  And I walked past the large pile of ripe tomatoes on our last grocery visit......this is what Son worries about- my lack of interest.....

I had graham crackers yesterday and two very large cups of sweet hot tea....I am mostly thirsty these days. Not hungry but will eat (if asked to eat)....I have things that are quick and easy to put together and heat up.  Protein.  I am going with protein in most of my meals....unusual for me. But....healthier.  There are carbs as well....and lots and lots of beverages....I am VERY thirsty ....

I am reading an old favorite off the library shelves-  Wedding Crasher by Mia Sosa.  She also wrote the Worst Best Man.   I should check and see if she has written anything new.....4 wks and the interlibrary loan services will be restored  (200 libraries)....and I can order Rom Coms from Auburn, Maine......

The new neighbors across the street are here all week, I guess....  Carpets are being removed from what looks like the entire house.  A large pick up is already full of rolled up old carpet.  The 1980's beige carpet... all the original houses on the street have it....My second bedroom and the office still have that same carpet... I am thankful to the second owner for removing it from the living room and dining room....I had it removed from my bedroom and hallway when we did the bathrooms.....I now have hardwood floors in my bedroom. I would have done the office and second bedroom but we had everything from the master in the office and the master furniture in the second bedroom where we slept during construction.

I imagine my house when I leave it.....sigh. Being taken apart.  Well, I will be taken apart as well.
