Good Monday morning, my friends! How was your weekend? It was good here, with an equal balance of productivity and relaxation. I caught up on laundry, planned the first week of homeschool for Flynn, and did some Sunday morning meal prep. I boiled some eggs, chopped and roasted some sweet potatoes, and sliced a pineapple and cantaloupe. We went to Mass, out to dinner, and hung out at the condo, went swimming, and took a couple of naps.
I had been slacking on my morning walks for the past couple of weeks because, honestly, I could not deal with the humidity. Today, the weather was lovely, and Mocha and I resumed our morning routine. And, I think, although it may be wishful thinking, that I felt the tiniest flicker of autumn in the air. Just sayin'.
Dinner last night was taco bowls. This is always a favorite here and so simple. I cook some rice in the rice cooker, which, by the way, we use all the time, chop some lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado, shred some cheese, heat some corn, and cook some ground beef with taco seasonings. I add some Greek yogurt in place of sour cream, and there you have it. So good!
Flynn spotted the faintest rainbow in the sky when we were at the condo Saturday night.
Lastly, Mocha is happy with the snuggly new blankets I got for fall.
And remember:
Happy Monday!
