Jessica was to leave last thursday, but has extended her stay for another week. We are so happy about this! To celebrate, we spent the day in the woods and at the beach, and she and the girls made supper for us thursday night: butternut squash ravioli with rosemary oil. Oh, wow.
She exuded patience while teaching the girls to make these little pillows of delight (yes, I just said that), and they rose to the occasion, listening carefully and then following through with the steps...

Friday evening we were ready to walk to the garden carrying a picnic supper the minute Dan walked in the door. I knew he was missing the garden (it is week 9 of the quarter, in case anyone is counting - one more and exam week to go...) and it needed watering, and we needed to eat...
We made a ramps pesto pasta salad, smoked paprika hummous, and ambrosia basil roll-ups.
Oh, and strawberries. It was gooooood.
The garden was glad to see us, with all this hot hot weather we've been having, and it was fun to be there together...
It is summer, and it all feels kind of like one long hot celebration...
