For many people the 4th of July weekend means BBQ's, cabins, and sparklers. Not for Nate and I.
This year we stayed put, and kept a very low profile. The only picture I even have to post of this weekend is Nate and I with disposable Christmas coffee cups on the way to watch fireworks. And I'm not even going to post it.
There were visits to the pool, a bike ride, a 10-second Film Fest, housework, garage cleaning,car test driving, gardening, laundry, reading, essay writing, killer bunnies played and LOTS of cooking.
A ton of cooking. New recipes every night...and only one was Nigella (stay tuned...it was a winner).
Do I wish we would have packed up shop and road tripped to Kansas City for BBQ like Nate wanted to? Maybe.
But I don't think I would have this ultimate relaxed feeling, with everything in order and done ready to start the week. And we have some big weekends coming up, so one long weekend of anything we want, just Nate and I, was just want we needed!

This whole lot of nothing you speak of sounds like a good life.
