Yesterday was the first official day of summer break for me. The classes ended Wednesday, but yesterday I had other work to do, so I'm not counting it.
Today, I got up around 9 a.m., made my coffee from freshly ground beans and then ate the breakfast that T cooked. Then we worked outside in the glorious weather. I got a little too hot since I'm not used to working outside, but I'm cool now. I worked in the garden while T mowed. I caged the tomatoes, dug a few of the tiny little onions that I could find, thinned the dill and pulled the worm eaten Brussel's sprouts in disgust/defeat. The worms are just too much for me this year.
I came in after all that to cool off, then went back out to build a Teepee for the cucumbers and stake a couple of tomato plants. T was done mowing and brought the hose down to the garden so we could water it. He's such a great guy, he even told me how nice the garden looked. :-D
Now we are just hanging out inside in the cool after a lunch of turkey wraps with dilly cucumbers in sour cream.
Cucumbers in Dill-Sour Cream Dressing
3 cucumbers peeled and seeded
1/2 cup Reduced Fat Sour Cream
Fresh Dill
1-2 Tablespoons white vinegar
Salt and Pepper to taste
Cut the cucumbers into 1/2-inch strips. Stack strips together and dice. Place cucumbers a bowl. finely chop the dill and add it to the cucumbers. Add the sour cream, vinegar, salt and pepper then toss everything together; mixing well. It's great for topping sandwiches or by itself.
A friend loves at all times. Proverbs 17:17 NIV
I'm so thankful for the friends that let me stay with them while I had classes in Little Rock. I'm also thankful for the new friends that I've made these past few weeks. I know that I have met some who will be dear to me for the rest of my life.
