Is That ... Fall?

TGIF! After rain earlier in the week followed by humidity, we finally have had some cooler weather and a hint of fall in the air. I don't think we're done with the heat altogether, but look at the forecast for next week!

Still little rain (those scattered showers on Sunday may be out of the forecast by then or miss us entirely), but look at those highs! I think I'll even need an extra layer in the morning, and friends, I am ready for it!

Our tomato plants have not gotten the memo that summer is soon coming to an end, however, and I keep discovering surprise tomatoes (because the big plant has taken over so much that they're hiding behind other plants). Here's the current harvest still to be eaten:

We sliced up a big one to have on turkey burgers on Wednesday night, and I've had some in salads, but there are still plenty to be eaten!

This weekend is the last one before Molly goes back to school, so we actually have some plans. The three of us are going out to dinner tonight at one of our favorite local places to kick off the school year. She just got asked to work another shift on Saturday and then is going to a friend's sleepover party on Saturday night, so the Mister and I are going out for a date night. And then Sunday he leaves for his annual work trip to Las Vegas that means he misses the first day of school (though fortunately at this age, Molly doesn't mind so much). Of course there will be the usual walks (alone and with Ruthie) and naps and such. But perhaps the next couple of days will be less sweaty.

Have a good one, friends, and see you back here on Monday!

  1. Even this morning, an extra layer was welcome as I walked (now in the dark... sigh) Those tomatoes look amazing!
