A Splendid Day


So Kristen and me went out to the State Fair yesterday. And the geek in me came out in full. The main reason for going was to get my book signed by Lynne Rossetto Kasper from The Splendid Table. I try to listen to the program every Saturday and podcast it all the time. We chatted for a bit, and also got a picture.....and then presumed to over eat all the good food.


So my summer work schedule is FINALLY over. Working 11-14 hours a day doing a job that you're not exactly jazzed about doing can be very stressful. Now it's back to normal--which means more cooking, writing, running and random acts of Jon-ness.

15 days left

If all goes well, I will be back on, and back to normal in about 15 days. The day I'm aiming for is August 29th. It has been a LONG summer with no free time to do anything. I've tried about 4 times to get up to Duluth to visit Mike, but either flash floods or work has gotten in the way.....Thankfully August is usually a fast month--right??
