My sincere apologies for the delay on the crawfish boil post. Evidently we used up all of our good karma escaping the chilly drizzle that passes for summer this year in Portland on Saturday, so we're taking good hearty zaps of bad karma now such as Rachel's tie-dye t-shirt catching fire in the microwave and Blogger failing to save 2-1/2 hours of what I humbly say was a pretty f-ing good write-up on the berl. (Holy c--p, hope my plane doesn't crash tomorrow!) It'll come, y'all, but bear with me, I gotta regroup.
Slept WAY in on Sunday but roused ourselves to do the clean up earlier rather than later so that we could return our gracious neighbors' driveway to some semblance of normalcy. Can't imagine what our water bill will be this quarter, between the sewerage bill for the wettest May-June on record, and water use for rinsing the crawfish, cleaning up, etc.
Then we were laying very very low...When dinner rolled around, we reheated some leftover red beans, cooked some fresh rice, and fried up some very tasty goat chorizo (from our Deck Farms CSA box). Pulled a couple of glasses of cold Laurelwood Mother Lode Golden from the remaining keg and then hunkered down for the last episode of the season of Treme. This show is incredible, and has convinced us both that we need to go back and watch the Wire--I know, I know! All our friends already love it, but we just hadn't invested the time to get hooked. We'll be on it when we get back...
