YELLOWSTONE and HOME

i was in yellowstone national park visiting some of my favorite animals for two whole weeks. 

besides making the rounds....old faithful, bambie and old george the bison, i did a lot of nothing but relax. i knitted a sweater and a half, spun about 8 ounces of fiber, crochet a bit and read 4 books while i parked myself in the most comfortable lawn chair.

it was heaven!

we ate like kings the entire time thanks to the back yard garden. we only added meat to all our veggies of corn, onions,beets,tomatoes, beans, zucchini and basil.

yellowstone to me is what disney world is to most americans. 

i feel at home in yellowstone

my breathing and heart rate slow down

my blood pressure is normal

my head is clear 

and my shoulders are down.

it crossed my mind that if i need a new career perhaps i should train to be a ranger.

i so enjoy the ranger talks at 9pm every night-funny yet informative.

once home it was laundry

and more laundry

plus zucchini!

lots of zucchini.

i made zucchini muffin

darn good even if i say so myself!

i also froze zucchini

anyone need any zucchini i will deliver!

tomatoes are wonderful!

eating lots of BLT's...yumm.

and perfect in this horrid heat wave colorado seems to be stuck in....

i mean really 99 degrees in september !

i have also started a baby quilt for a gal in mr.p's office.

she is having a boy and i'm using sweet water fabric-

a very old line!

oh and i'm still working full time- at least through november.

today being a day of rest i spent the afternoon making soap in my kitchen.

holy moley my kitchen has been a blaze of domesticity of late.

what is happening in your life?

hope your week has been peaceful yet productive
