Nathan's Mom and I stopped at The Lobster Barn in beautiful Victoria by the Sea for lunch- one MUST eat lobster while on PEI so we had lobster rolls for lunch. (We won't discuss dessert, ok?) We both agreed this was a great spot to eat - we recommend it highly.And the other thing one must consume while on "the Island" is an icecream cone at Cows. So of course, we did that too. So good....
Back to the team. They played a great game, leading for most of it, but sadly they lost by 5-4 in the final inning. So they settled for silver medals instead of gold, but that is nothing to be ashamed of. Second in Atlantic!! Pretty darned good I'd say! Way to go Nathan!! This was his first year of playing competitive ball... I'm sure he was tired when he got home after four days of games. And this week he has hockey try-outs. At least he doesn't have a chance to get bored....
Yesterday I made another batch of jam, and I have a large batch of crock pickles underway. I've been busy picking, stewing and freezing tomatoes too. The garden is winding down and I'm busy harvesting and preserving what I can. I spent today doing all those fun things like laundry, ironing, scrubbing bathrooms, etc. and then Choir started tonight. Tomorrow we're off on a little day trip. Thursday is supposed to be rainy and I plan on spending the entire day in my studio. Can't wait.... No rest for the weary! Tomorrow, I'll give you the Greek salad recipe.
Peace,
Linda

I hope to cross the Confederation bridge again some day, we loved PEI when there a few years ago. It's a bit more than a quick trip from Ontario unfortunately.
We had your green bean recipe for dinner last night and it was delicious, thanks for sharing it in a post.
Congrats on the silver medal for the AAA team. Great job on their part and so close to the gold. My nephew worked on the bridge back then. One of his first jobs I think. You sound really busy Linda. I guess that's good though. Wouldn't you know I have a hair appointment and lots of errands to run tomorrow in the rain. I should have done the errands today and had that part done with. Oh well. It's been great stretch of weather.
Congratulations to the team.
You certainly have been busy but with all good things. Sounds like you've had a lucrative harvest from the garden....everything sounds good. Enjoy your day trip and I look forward to seeing what comes out of the studio.
