My favorite cheese-grating device…failed. [Flexes biceps]…I don’t know my own strength. 🤣

The title—94, 96, 95—reports the high temps through Sunday that the meteorologist predicted yesterday morning. I think yesterday did get to 94, but today topped at 97. Yeesh.

What will tomorrow bring?

Appropriately, this is a yesterday-photo. 😇

We are three meals in on our air fryer experiments…two of salmon filets, and one of tofu. We are (I am) trying to incorporate more fish/other meals in our diet, instead of terrestrial critter protein (including dairy).

One advantage of the air fryer, and I don’t understand how this happens, but there’s no fishy odor. Amazing.

We visited the Land of Tall Buildings, which is not far away, this morning. I was surprised by the lit-up windows, knowing that Mr. Sun was off to the left. I quickly figured out that Mr. Sun was reflecting off “my” building into the opposite structure. [Tadah.]

Yesterday, I did finish pressure-washing the front and back entry areas, and called that eeeee-nufff. [I ignored the sidewalk in front of the house; apologies, pedestrians.] I also summed the time spent pressure-washing over two days—6.5 hrs—whew! Today, I rested my back (which, truth be told, was basically okay, I think because of my irregular “Classical Stretch/Essentrics” workouts).

How can you not love a fruit tart? DMK’s masterpiece was a fabulous and very tasty example.

Tackled a major seasonal chore: pressure-washing. Finished the worst of it (driveway), but the remainder is more time-consuming (entry areas, front and back). Something to look forward to….

Today was Day 2 of Summerfest, and music periodcally filtered through the house all day, first from that way, and then from another direction. That was much different that the usual quiet Sunday.

Artful prismatic.

I had a vision for this photograph, and this is almost there…the leaf and flower shapes make an interesting, varying landscape.
