Yummy!

What a great weekend! Besides being relaxing, it was full of yumminess. Yesterday we hit up the outdoor farmer's market for the first time this season and picked up lots of treats including strawberries, mint, some tasty grass fed meats and to die for lemon basil pesto. It was a gorgeous day so we sat out on the deck, munched on pesto and bread and enjoyed the sunshine. We then had a last minute invite from friends for dinner, so we headed out and spent the rest of the evening with them.

Today we skipped the gym (oops!) and ran to Whole Foods to pick up the things we needed that we couldn't get at the farmer's market. When got home J. wanted to try making some scones so we could use the scallions we received in our CSA. J. is an amazing cook, but baking isn't her bag. And I should just stay far away from kitchens in general. But we gave it a try and made a scallion and cheese scone. After 20 minutes in the oven we had success! They are so good! Now that we know how easy it is to make scones, we are going to make so many kinds! We followed it up by making some strawberry basil lemonade using the recipe I found here. Everybody should run and make it right now!! This is going to be one of our summer staples from now on.

Now we're relaxing, I'm doing some laundry while J. is watching baseball. Looking forward to another episode of True Blood tonight!
