Dum Dum suckers have been a bit hit this summer...we always seem to have a bag on hand and of course Alice and Dominik have their favorite flavors.
We have been having a great summer. The weather calls for lots of kiddy pool/sprinkler parties with neighbor friends so the kids have basically been living in their swim suits. We took a little trip south to Santa Barbara for some fun on the beach earlier this month. We stopped in San Francisco, Monterey, and Morro Bay on the way down to visit friends and to be tourists. The Aquarium in Monterey is fantastic...huge and amazing. It is housed inside a big old cannery building on Cannery Row, and it will not disapoint.
Lola has been creating some cool garden space in the back yard, which has been fun. We tried vegatables for a change and that has been very exciting for Alice to see the progress and growth.
We harvested snap peas, and will soon be picking our string beans for a lovely dish that Brent has planned, "Grandmommy's Green Beans" or "West Virginia Green Beans". You can call it whatever you like.
