Eighteen trees were delivered today for the house up the hill. Fortunately the diesel rumble and forklift beeping was short-lived.


Scaffolding coming down from what appears to be an elevator shaft on the project around the corner.

I did make those peanut butter cookies. They’re good! Like the recipe recommends, I dipped the cross-hatching fork in ice water instead of flour. What a difference. After making these cookies dozens of times, I somehow never read that part (no comment).

But mostly I’m here to say it’s hot. Too hot to walk the full Langley-Cypress loop, so we cut through the schoolyard. My guess is this heat will last until the end of September.
I can’t believe I haven’t take a single dunk in water yet this year. Maybe Crystal Lake later?

After spending an hour or so adding to the History Page on this blog, I hit DISCARD instead of UPDATE (also no comment). I was not a happy camper. Of course I found no way to restore the revisions.

I love your flowers. 18 trees is a lot! How nice that someone believes in trees 🙂 My experiences lean more towards trees being removed. ugh.
How nice that you two get to walk together. I’ve recently adjusted to that after walking alone for so long. It was an adjustment to my alone time, but well worth it. I’m absolutely drooling over just the fixin’s for those peanut butter cookies. YUM! And the butterfly is so pretty – I want to see the rest of the cloth.
As for online life…I updated my computer, which disappeared certain passwords and I have then had trouble commenting on certain blogs. Grrr. I have no idea what those passwords were, nor to I care. I just started adding my name at the close of my comment. Problem solved, enough anyway.
