Cookout Prep

Invited friends for a cookout tomorrow. Did a shop yesterday and finished up early this morning.

We did a 2+ mile walk to Johns Pond Estates this morning.

I finished mowing and did a cleanup of the driveway garden, the corner garden and the area in front of the fence.

Made potato salad and boiled eggs for tomorrow. We had leftovers in pita bread for lunch and tomato sandwiches for supper.

Ron has been moving things around in the basement and put some “stuff” in the attic, including his beer bottles. Found a wet spot on the floor but not near any plumbing.

Tailgate; Headlights

Put a serious dent in the tailgate the other day and got a couple of repair estimates yesterday. Tailgate still works, but there are options if I want it replaced.

Ron did three loads of laundry and polished the headlights on the truck so that they look new. I ordered another kit for his van.

We did a transfer station run.

Loaded VS2019 community edition on the Dell.

Small shop at Job Lot.

Kale

Picked kale for two hours this morning at the farm.

Roasted cabbage with garlic and fennel – very good – and Japanese eggplant.

Ron got his email account squared away and now has a week of junk to wade through.

I voted, not too exciting: the big primary races are for the Democrats, Senate and (for the County) Cape Cod Commission.

Did not realize there is a labyrinth at the Quashnet school. Sometimes it pays to wander off the beaten path.

Got my blood pressure taken at doc’s: it was 126/something. Hard to believe.

Back to the farm for CSA.

Beans

Picked green beans, I think 28 quarts, for two hours at Pariah Dog yesterday afternoon. Got to see the little guy; what a doll!

Made baba ganoush and roasted vegetables with noodles yesterday.

I never received my mail-in ballot and was too late to vote yesterday, but did drop off Ron’s. Did a small grocery shop on the way back.

Picked up our balsamic vinegar at Uncle Bill’s.
