A 2 mile walk weather permitting every day best recent time 33 min 33 sec.  Not bad for a pair pushing 80 very hard.  Good weather has also meant the garden getting a lot of attention.  Good thing because there was a lot of neglect over the past couple of years.  Wednesday 3 yards of garden soil will be dumped on the driveway.  That should keep us out of trouble or kill us.

Ha!  I'm also baking.  Making enough to stash some cookies and cakes in the freezer for the heat of the summer.  I also make my own sourdough bread but don't have a recipe.  I've been doing it for so long that I more or less do it by feel.  But I also use some white flour, some whole wheat, throw in some ground flax and some sunflower seeds and if I have anything else appropriate that goes in too.  I make 2 loaves which last us a couple of weeks.  The bread is usually baked by sometime in the evening at which time we each have a fresh slice with butter.  It gets plastic bagged over night and is easy to slice in the morning.  Then I use strips of plastic between each slice, double bag it and pop it into the freezer. Bought bread tastes really bland now.  L
