We are having the family over for a bbq today. The usual 4th of July fare, hamburgers and potato salad. There will be side dishes, of course. Daughter M requested cosmopolitans and who am I to disagree? There's nothing better than a pink drink.
I fell in my garden yesterday trying to cut back spent cannas. This is the rainy season in Central Florida and the ground is mushy. I was barefoot and couldn't maintain my balance. I fell slowly and fully aware of the ridiculousness of it, right into the cannas. Then I had more to prune, as so many stems were broken. I fell on my right arm and now it hurts. Not so badly that I can't still cook and clean for company. Oh well.
I am so not proud of the Divided States of America right now. But I live in hope, with a side of fear.
