Mid-summer catch-up

(This times 100 = the number of peaches that were canned)

Where does the time go? Although this summer hasn't been much of a summer weather-wise, it's still flown by nonetheless. And I've managed to fill it with fun times, great people, and of course awesome food. Well here are a few photos to hold you over (in no particular order because I'm sick and don't feel like messing with blogger.)

This was the day of Roxy's graduation in May. I was so happy to be able to spend the day celebrating her! (and we got to dress up AND eat at Alice's Tea Cup).


I also got to attend Emily and Dave's wedding. It was a super dreamy event.Me and Wendy at the wedding.

Spending time with family! It was so great having the girl's come with Lexi and Tariq. The city was amazing to them and it was great to see it through their eyes.

Celebrating Regine's birthday at Dinosaur Barbeque!
More family time with Lexi and her friend Sandra.
My garden...still growing out of control!
Making strawberry jam from the strawberries that we picked...Too good.

Celebrating Loide's birthday in DC! Sooo much fun.
Spending time with Keysia, Danette, and Gloria in DC the same weekend. This is also the weekend Gloria decides to fill us in on her news of being pregnant with twins! I guess she decided she couldn't hide it anymore...:)
4th of July BBQ at Sonya's. It was perfect.
Celebrating my dear husband's birthday!

Well, those are all the photos I had, but it doesn't include: riding my bike around Brooklyn, working at the CSA and figuring out how to cook Kohlrabi and other strange veggies we get from our farmer, peach picking and then canning the peaches.
Oh wait, just found the peach pictures, so I'll post them below. It was ridiculously hot, but so satisfying and worth it. (I think.)
