Binging...

...on bad tv.
We've been cutting back on expenses and have gotten rid of cable as well as our land line.
It feels good actually.
I bought a $30 antenna and we get a few local channels and PBS. Between that and netflix, $8 a month and amazon prime. We are in good shape.

We've binge watched some good shows.
Longmire
Scandal
Doc Martin
Sons of Anarchy
Death in Paradise
Others.....

Right now we are watching Revenge.
Which is pretty bad, reminds me of Dallas or Dynasty.

But it's easy to watch and read or play on my iPad.

No walk tonight, unless you count walking through huge stores looking for a fridge to buy.
I feel like all I do is buy new fridges :)

Afterward, I convinced Amy that an ice cream cone was way better than a walk :)

It didn't take too much convincing really.
Toasted coconut for me.
Black raspberry and caramel something or other for Amy.

No complaints :)
Yum.

Sunday

Quiet day today, watching Forks over Knives. Trying to get myself back on the Vegan band wagon.

Picked 10.5 lbs of tomatoes today....

Today's Bounty

Just today's bounty. 
Might need to learn how to make fresh pasta sauce, and a pumpkin waiting to be picked....

Sunday....


...was a quiet day, went for a 2 mile walk at the beach, early morning, 8am and still, so hot and humid.

I find Sundays are always a little depressing for me. That fine line of trying to enjoy what is left of the weekend and thinking about Monday and work.

So, first (and I've changed my routine lately....) coffee and some vegging on the deck. Then that beach walk.

Then the chores started. grocery shopping, washing, ironing clothes. cleaning the house. We all know the drill...

We did sneak in lunch at Indian buffet





and then spent some more time out on the deck (when the shade returned...), thinking. Admiring the home garden. get back into the swing of things in her garden.
it's doing really well this year. Not sure how, since I had to help out :) because of the surgery.
Maybe I have a green thumb?

Ice cream....

Ahh.....

That ice cream cone I was thinking about the other night.

What better way to end the day than with a simple ice cream cone?

Delicious, too. It's funny, but there is a small ice cream shop in town.
We pass by it a lot....never been in there.

2 Friday nights ago, we were driving back from our walk at the beach and we were stopped at a red light, right there. In front of the shop.
We went in....everything looked good.
Then we scrambled for cash when we saw the sign...cash only...
I got a small ice cream cone, toasted coconut. Amy got a small cup of black raspberry.
We were quiet as we ate, until I said.
This is the best ice cream I've ever had, seriously.
I looked at Amy.
She nodded in agreement.
Uh-oh :)

I did get my 10k steps in first today...
My just reward :)

Toasted coconut.....
