Sunday morning coffee

It stormed all night and it's still raining this morning. 

Smells good. Clean and fresh.

I didn't quite get as much accomplished as I'd have liked since mowing the jungle that used to be our lawn, took waaay longer than I expected - and that was with the riding mower, pusher mower and weed whacker being used the whole time. Sadly we are not done yet and with the rain probably wont get it finished today either.

Oh well.

We'll be starting the whole mowing process over next weekend.

hanging out in the apple tree watching the world go by.

The apple trees were swarming with bees so I can't imagine why she'd think that was a good place to be.

Colton starts his internship tomorrow. 

He's got his bag of supplies all packed and it's loaded with everything a person might need for field work. From hip waders to tweezers for pulling ticks and another bag packed for a day at the office with nice clothes.

I'm so excited for him. 

Have you ever cooked bacon in the oven before?

We tried it and WOW! 

I think that's the only way I'll be cooking bacon for the foreseeable future.

The bacon cooks evenly on both sides, doesn't roll or twist up and the clean up is easy.

Be sure to use a cookie sheet with as high of sides as you can find since removing the pan from the oven could be a tricky proposition if you are even a little clumsy.

Anywho.

I'm shooting for getting the rhubarb froze today and that's about it. 

Have a good one :)
