the past 2 weeks, weather-ly speaking





It's hard to talk about anything other than the weather here. Right now the air conditioning is not working and it's 100 degrees and screaming bright outside. A week and a half ago, though, there were crazy storms and nothing but sticky, humid weather and nightly storms and tornado warnings.

The weather is sunnier and warmer and so begins the summer, it feels like it. so many things are blooming and opening and ripening. a great excuse for my favorite, cucumber and cream cheese sandwiches:




we're trying to take advantage of the warm evenings and the hot afternoons as much as possible before the heat and humidity get too insufferable, so we packed our things and went to the sunset symphony next to the river this past weekend and it was fabulous!



perfect weather, a great excuse to go down to the river for a gorgeous view, and so much fun. we packed snacks and wine and water and chilled out on picnic blankets and listened to the orchestra and music and watched the awesome fireworks.
