I love David Sedaris! Poke sounds awesome.

We are just now eatin--Spanish-style (thinking about eating at 10pm). DH is making burgers. I made potato salad. It's the first summer meal of the season.

I am jealous. We had summer a week ago but this week has been cold and dreary again.

Okay----Maybe you kids'd like some yummy Iwah cuisine! See photo. Attachment 5435Attachment 5435Attachment 5435

As I posted elsewhere, went camping this weekend and Saturday night was potluck dinner. Have a bunch of leftovers that will be dinner for tonight - ham & pineapple kabobs, bbq shredded chicken, salad, meatballs and I can't remember what else! LOL.

That would make it special for everyone that reads it if they see that he'd autographed it with a (most likely sarcastic) note to the library." Then SO said "knowing David's sense of humor maybe it would be even funnier if you had brought one of Amy's (his sister) books and asked him to sign that. To which I responded "Like Assassination Vacation? That book was great!" To which SO responded "Yes, but that was actually Sarah Vowell. Of course that might be even funnier. I can just hear him telling the story in a future book: (SO in David Sedaris voice) "So I was at a book signing in Napa and this guy came up and asked me to sign one of Sarah Vowell's books! I mean, the nerve! Yes, she's a friend, but still! And it was a library book!!!! Not even one that he had bought!! So I signed it all right. And said exactly what I was thinking."

did David Sedaris do his “I now identify as a straight man” schtick?

No. It seemed to be all new material. Or at least none that I’d seen/heard before.

Minestrone soup made from leftover stewed tomatoes from yesterday's Scottish breakfast with DD/DSIL.

We bought a gorgeous bag of lettuce at a small farm market that gives me joy every night as i make salad! There are 6 varieties of lettuce, it was so clean and fresh!

Aiming to do more veg dishes so red bell peppers stuffed with farro, beans, corn and tomatos. Sprinkled with cheese and baked.

Chicken soft tacos with some leftover chicken from the local bbq place.
