Raspberries...
which One faithfully picked...
into this bucket...
and then I turned into my "raspberry delight", which is really chocolate-raspberry sundae topping (quite delish!)...
a raspberry pie! (I prefer the rustic look for my crusts, which is what I tell myself to make my crude crusts look better)
And in a different day this week...sprinkler time
followed later by a less-than-capacity crowd early at the Mallard's game to watch the ...
flag rugby exhibition!
Post exhibition, enjoying the rewards of a gatorade.
***************I woke up at 5:30 this morning. I was crowded out of my bed (one husband, one doggy and 2 children made for no room for mama) and I thought, "5:30 isn't so bad. I'll head on downstairs." Headed on downstairs and thought, "gee, it's awfully dark for 5:30," and saw the clock said 4:30. Oh well. Now I've been up for HOURS and have only had a small bit of caffeine.
I sat at this computer at 4:30 and noticed my neighbor's motion light go on. I looked across the yards, wondering what intruder was lurking around her backyard. It was an opossum. Ugly creatures, those are. I am not charmed by them at all.
It's chore day, chez mooncrawl. I realized I sold myself short in yesterday's post about the dirty house. I actually have a method to my madness. I have declared Friday to be chore day, and I gave the kids until 10 am to lounge around before we got to it. They have things to do, I have things to do, and we should be able to get them down well before our park time this afternoon. It's now PAST 10 am - oops - so I need to pry them away from whatever video they are watching and get to it.
I hope you got all your work done! Your berries look so good. So does your pie. My crusts always look bad, but they taste good, so who cares?
