25 Cents


The kids wanted to set up another lemonade stand (we had a coffee cart, too!)...this is the second in a couple of months. Inititially, they wanted to charge $2.00 for a drink and cupcake, but were talked down to 25 cents per item. I wanted to make a stand for them, but with packing and school haven't had the time. They couldn't care less...they're thrilled with a table and piece of paper.

Flowing

One of my favorite things about summer in Colorado is that there is so much to do. As often as possible on Saturdays, we venture to the Boulder Farmer's Market (the best in the country...no kidding). There isn't just an amazing array of fruit and veggies to choose from, but also organic wine, meats, bread, cheeses, flowers (peonies this week!), herbs and locally made goods - soaps, jewelry, clothing...It's incredible!  If that isn't enough, local restauranst set-up shop - from bufffalo burgers and tamales to indian curry and cupcakes. Delish! After we get what we need and grab a bite, we head over to the Boulder Creetk! Woot! Such a blast. Last week, the water was too cold from the snow melt to do much of anything except hang for a few minutes at a time and jump rocks. In another couple of weeks, we'll be tubing:)  Look for pictures. We love the flow of Saturday.
