Anyone else who makes the flavor calls it Moose Tracks; since Blue Bunny Ice Cream made this batch, they gotta go with their trademark.

Besides, it’s ‘Bunny Tracks’, not ‘Bunny Pellets’. 😛

Thaaaaanks. Hubby has gone to the store, and I had to have some Moose Tracks. Hanging with you guys is a lot of fun, but no good for my waistline! Kroger makes a great Moose Tracks ice cream in their Private Selection brand.

We call it Moose Crap because we’re all classy that way. I especially like the Chocolate Moose Crap. In fact, I want some now, but I’m too tired and lazy to fetch any. So I shall whine instead.

_\<whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine\>_

::Slides ice cream through the CD drive.::

Back from running errands. Haven’t read. Gotta eat a little bit and then go outside to continue my garden adventures. Woo hoo!

Back after a bit.

We had a good two hours at the pool before the rain. So we adjourned to the back porch to continue makin’ merry. The good part is the rain cooled things down a bit so we actually ate on the back porch. Well not _on_ the porch. I insisted everybody use plates and sit at the tables cause well, I’m all class like that. 😃

Anywho everybody’s gone and everything is put away. I’s a tahred bear! It may not be long before beddy bye time.

Came home from MIL’s and gardened. No house cleaning as of yet. Stupid foot is bothering me again. I need to make an appt with my podiatrist. It was hotter than hell in the yard, but I got some spraying done, trimmed some peonies back (and cut some for vases) and watered the deck and porch pots. I think I killed my hanging pots, though. :mad: I forgot about them and didn’t water them yesterday. They look fried, but I did water them thoroughly today–let’s hope.  
Off to shower–I am soaking wet with sweat. God, I hate heat. I like any track ice cream. Yummy.

I hate plumbing emergencies.

I was using the hose to clean the canoe for tomorrow’s voyage. I yanked on the hose because I needed more, and pulled the hose reel off the wall. That in turn broke off the spigot, and there was a gusher from the side of my house. :smack: Fortunately, I had better luck than BP plugging the pipe.

Tomorrow I get to put on a new spigot. After the canoe trip. Did I mention I hate plumbing emergencies?

Ice cream would be good. But I’d have to get dressed and go out to buy it. Ain’t gonna happen.

Home. Tired. Sunburned on the spots that didn’t get sunblock on them… My right thigh has a big red splotch on it, and it hurts.

I realized I didn’t post my morning post - we went to the beach with some friends and three pups. It was great! Not too hot, a nice breeze, and we had a [canopy thing](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XHWW10/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_3?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B000OYQ5LK&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=03PDM6JTN9MN7PGMHB4R)… The dogs were well behaved, and were rewarded with hot dogs and brisket. 🙂

Sirloin’s just hit the grill, corn is steaming and the butternut squash is baking. Yum.

I scrubbed the patio and the the furniture down today, washed windows and hung new lights outside. Then sorted the kitchen cabinets out and organised them ready for my stuff arriving from France, did 3 loads of laundry and _appreciated_ my husband this afternoon :D. That was a pretty good Sunday.

Now I am starving. See ya tomorrow!

After coming in from the garden, I washed up enough to go get ice cream and found that the line was out the $#@(&\* door at the ice cream shop. I didn’t want to wait 1/2 an hour, so I went next door to the coffee shop and got a frozen mocha something-or-other instead and drank it while I did my cool-down walk back around the block. It was yum.

Smoked salmon souffle sounds yummy, **BooFae**. Sorry about the eye, though. At least it scheduled itself conveniently. :rolleyes:

So are you going to be based in Houston or is that just a “welcome to the new job” trip, **mmmmm**?

We pride ourselves on being a good influence, **Joolz**. 😃 You’re welcome.

Hope the hanging baskets lived, **rigs**.

**Bobbio** , both of my spigots probably ought to be replaced. You don’t mind stopping by, right? 😛

So, I went out just after I posted and industriously dug and planted and watered and weeded. Then it seemed like it was getting a little overcast. Because it was 9:00 p.m.! How’d that happen?

Still have lots I can do in the garden (it’s a never-ending project); I’m hoping I can get some work done in the morning (it’s supposed to rain at some point).

Starting to make a list of stuff I need to do tomorrow…

Happy almost Monday.

My eye feels better and I got ice cream cake today. Things are a little better.

Thunderboomer headed in–cool lightning and thunder show going on right now, but no rain. House is hot–77 inside, but I refuse to turn on the A/C. I’m cheap like that. TH likes it this hot, so he’s fine. I’m not fine, but I’m stubborn!
