Well, it's been a little since my last post - i felt like i ran out of 'stuff', or at least stuff that was marginally interesting. I may still be out, heh.

Anyway - so far as Julys go, this one has been delightful so far. Cool and breezy and sunny, but no real heat. No aircon! Open windows! It's lovely.

So, my mother in law has chickens. And ducks. And goats, and sheep and dogs and probably a pig or two, soon, and a greenhouse and gardens.... She's a bit nutty, what with the acquiring of animals and all. But she did give me these lovely green eggs, from the 'Easter' chickens.

Green eggs, no ham. )

And no, the eggs themselves aren't green. She also gave me duck eggs, some of which I age with dill and celery salt. They're very *eggy*. They do better for baking, really, so I made banana bread. Two eggs with double yolks! Fun times.

Today's the fourth, of course. I've never been a 'flag waving' type, and the fourth isn't a big deal to me. Don't get me wrong, i'm pleased to have independence, but...eh. I don't get all worked up. We're not even doing fireworks this year, and the Bebe is off with friends having them at their house.

However, in deference to the day, i'm using my Captain America cup to drink my water. :)

Patriotic vessel! )

So there's my fourth! Now back to the fic i must finish. How are you all? :)
