The weather will be somewhat cooler when they arrive, as highs are only forecast to be around 48. It will also be rainy most of the time they are here. I have advised them to be prepared with good waterproof parkas and pants, as there is no bad weather here, only bad clothing. The sunrise this morning shows the amount of cloud cover they will probably experience most of the time.
We did take a little time out this weekend to go for a little walk around the neighborhood. We'd found some blackberry bushes recently and wanted to pick a few for the freezer. We ended up getting about 1 1/2 quarts, as well as some plums and apples. We had Andrea over for dinner last night and fixed grilled trout, eggplant and zucchini with tomatoes and cheese, and for dessert a baked brie with apple-plum compote. The last thing was a spur-of-the-moment creation which turned out to be delicious. I am happy to forward the recipe - just comment here and I will send it!
Sidney has school pictures today. Hopefully she will do a good one, which we will eventually send out to everyone. I have no idea how they are going to get 24 four- and five-year-olds to sit still and not make crazy faces for the class photo!
