navygreenI got my hair cut yesterday afternoon. I was just tired of it, and I had no better explanation. All the swimming and sunshine this summer seemed to be drying out the ends into bits of straw, so I had them all cut off. I lost quite a few inches, and I had long layers put in. It's much lighter now, and I'm happy with it.
I ordered Jack's cake two days ago, but I forgot to place his balloon order. I'm going to do that this afternoon once Philip returns home from Runza. I'm paying for everything in advance so I don't have to think about it on Saturday. I'm making the jello today as well, and I'll probably cut the jigglers out tomorrow. Jack and I will also begin making his treat bags up tomorrow.
'Captain Jack' is getting very excited!
I'm making a few batches of zucchini bread today. I've been giving away lots of zucchini to the church (over twenty now!), so I've only got two large ones in my fridge at this very moment. That's a manageable amount, though I'm sure there's one or two more ready in the garden today that I'll pick later. I'm taking zucchini bread to the Parents at Home picnic on Sunday, as well as some sort of vegetable dish (I've not decided what yet - maybe scalloped potatoes?). I also want to mail some zucchini bread to my mom and grandpa. I've got small packages that need to be sent to both of them, but I was holding their stuff until I could send in the zucchini love as well.
I harvested a bunch of carrots yesterday, another green pepper (that makes 25 now!), more lima beans, about two dozen more cherry tomatoes and a few more green beans. I think the green bean plants are just about finished this summer. We got about 12 quarts of beans out of them, so I think that's pretty good. I pulled out a few plants yesterday, but I'm leaving the rest for a bit longer. We've got our first Better Boy tomato ready to pick today, and it looks delicious!
There is a lot going on this week, but I'm really beginning to feel like I'm on top of stuff. It's a good feeling, and I hope it doesn't spiral out of control by tomorrow. ;-)
