Kind of a busy short week. The sun continued to shine and we worked outside a bit, getting into the watering routine and nearly draining the rain barrel.

Memorial Day weekend rounded out nicely. After signing off last time we packed up a deconstructionist picnic and headed for Tuscarora and three hours of sitting on a blanket by a lake. Then we went to Skipper Dippers for ice cream, which was cool, and Hazleton just to see the city, which not so much. The holiday itself was hot but that didn't stop us from going over to Herbein's and doing some garden stuff and then skating some very sweaty laps at Rodale/reading in shade.

Somehow I've gotten out of the habit of posting about food we cook, but last night after ultimate we fired up the wok (literally - "dragon's breath" is the temperature advice Jenelle imparted) and made stir fry with udon noodles from Chinatown in Philly which had been in the freezer. This was excellent. I added some sriracha and could have eaten an entire wok full. Hooray for gourmet.

Friday night we chilled at home with Jenelle's fizzy strawberry lemonade on the deck, then went into Emmaus to pick up a redbox and try Creamery on Main. The Triangle was packed, the weather was perfect, and we felt happy about our little town.
