Two down; None left

The second party has come and gone. The cake, though leaning, stood through the actual singing, and the guy representing Philippe also stayed on the wood skewer represented the wire. So, that was good. My nephew really liked getting Man on Wire, which he's already watched. He also watched The Man who Walked between the Towers. He has looked at the book Man on Wire. He also got some more lego bricks and a bungee jumper as well as a new book about Andy Warhol, so he's good for this birthday. It's a happy day for him.

Tomorrow is a long day for me. I think I'll be getting up with the boys, so that I can say goodbye before my nephew goes off to his second day of second grade. Day 1 apparently went pretty well. I then go to MA. I hope the drive is uneventful.

Because I'm insane (and apparently have OCD), I bought a box of tomatoes today, so I'm going to need to make my salsa tomorrow - or early Saturday. I also want to make some roasted red pepper spread this weekend. Then, sometime next week, I need to find a place to pick raspberries to do my final (sort of) fruit spreads for the time being (there are still two apple things I want to try, but I think I can do those in October).

Hopefully all goes well with the breads No-L is making. And hopefully she keeps up the good work!
