...I take pictures of the dinner I make (only the pretty ones) because its the only proof that I accomplished anything tangible that day. I know I actually accomplish many things (keeping children alive etc.) but boy there are days when I go to bed with the exact same to do list looming as the day before, with not a dent made in it.
I am OK with that, but sometimes its nice to be able to look at something you did. I think that's mostly why I blog. Do you ever feel that way?
How was your Summer Solstice? We had planned on a party (marshmallows+ fire equals a party in our house) under twinkly lights in the backyard but the power in our neighborhood was out most the day, so instead we had dinner out and a trip to Home Depot.
But it was just fun to be all together in the light of the day.
I am inspired by your dinners! They are so beautiful. Can I copy? Or just come to your house to eat?
ReplyDeletei want to eat both of those. and did i tell you we're recognizable at home depot now too? david's making shelves.
ReplyDeleteThat steak looks perfectly done,yummy!You are inspiring me to get the pool filled and bbq.ox,Mom
ReplyDeleteAmen, sistah. I no longer make a 'daily' to-do list, because I've finally accepted the reality that it will take all week to accomplish. And blogging is the only proof I have that I am not a total loser. ;)
ReplyDeleteYour dinners look delish. A+
If my dinners looked that great every night....I would take pictures every day!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I want some photography lessons....your pictures are gorgeous! (I know how hard it is to take pictures of food.)
yum. i really want that meat and corn. i love these long summer days ... your twinkly light + fire party idea sounds magical. and dinner out + home depot sounds very familiar:)
ReplyDeleteA trip to Home Depot is high up on my list. Love that place.
