At loose ends
Yesterday was a mass of activity, primarily because I frittered away most of my free time this week playing Rock Band 2. Since I was having people over yesterday afternoon, I only had the morning to try to make the house presentable.

This time of year
One of the best things about this time of year is my weekly farmers' market trip. Saturday night dinner is incredibly easy now - an ear of corn, plus a side of some other vegetable.
