August is here and so is the hot and dry weather. We have not had much rain this summer and our poor yard is showing the effects of that. I have watered my flowers and garden so they look pretty good, but the grass…not so much. It does save mowing time and gas so I guess I should look at the positive side of it.
This is a busy work week for both C & myself so even though I do have some new recipes to try, they are simple and, I hope, tasty. School starts on Wednesday so C will have his hands full and we have multiple court days this week so we will both hit the ground running.
I hope all of you have a wonderful and productive week as well.

Butter roasted potatoes sound amazing as does Banana pudding cake! I have a pretty simple week going this week as well. It’s definitely not the time of year to experiment with long complicated new dishes.
We’ve had rain in spurts this year. We get tons and I get used to not having to water anything and then suddenly it stops raining for days and I almost let stuff die because I forget I have to water things!
I am the same way about watering. If I can keep my flowers alive until August, I feel like I have accomplished something. 🙂
