I'm smiling.

why is Iron & Wine so good?

and we'll undress by the ashes of the fire
our tender bellies all wound around in baling wire
all the more a pair of underwater pearls
than the oak tree & it's ressurection fern

yay! things to do!

Today, I am going on an adventure with lovies I need more time with!
Exploring the underground WWII bunker at Napatree Point was our first idea, but the weather is sort of glum & ho-hum.
So a different destination it is!

In other adventuring news:

PONYO and ADAM both come out tomorrow and I want to see them.

CAPE COD IS NEXT WEEK.
Large scale flea markets and drive-in movies are to be had.
P-town is going to be amazing.
I can't wait to listen to Vampire Weekend while passing by the Lobster's Claw and all the bears. Haha.

5 more days until one year!
28 days until the move!
46 days until Le Cordon Bleu!

Mixed Berry Pie

1 quart fresh strawberries, sliced
2 pints fresh blackberries or blueberries
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1 c. sugar
1/4 c. all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
Dash ground cloves
1 egg yolk
1 tsp. sugar, mixed with pinch of nutmeg, cinnamon

Gently wash berries; drain well. Place in large bowl; sprinkle with lemon juice. Combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Add to berries and toss lightly to combine. Turn into pastry lined pie plate, mounding in center. Dot with butter. Roll out remaining pastry into an 11 inch circle. Make several slits near center for steam vents. Adjust over filling; fold edge of top crust under bottom crust, press together and crisp decoratively.
Beat egg yolk with 1 tablespoon water. Brush lightly over top crust and sprinkle with sugar mixed with nutmeg and cinnamon. Bake 45-50 minutes at 400 degrees or until juices start to bubble through steam vents and crust is golden brown. Cool on wire rack at least 1 hour to set. Serve slightly warm. Serves 8.

Graduation for Colin & the Laurens! =) Brenton & I embarassed Beecher and it was great.
Lunch at Bill's Seafood with Tanner, the sun was out! Hooray! There was icecream afterward, too. Delicious.
Ordered my new phone today, an LG voyager. Sweeeet. Beecher and Kate will fight over my old Venus sometime this next week.
A huge storm rolled in tonight and we got 'Tornado Warnings'. The sky was all crazy colors and huge churning clouds the entire time. Thunder, lightning and a double rainbow bridged over Main Street. Awesome.
