Crane's Pie Pantry

Luckily today was cooler and we got a chance to take our guest around town.  We stopped by this cute restaurant and had a bite to eat.

Windmill Island

Yesterday hubby, friend, and I ventured out into the 90 degree heat to visit Windmill Island.

We wanted to trek to the windmill, but a wall of heat held us back.

So we took a couple photos and cooled off at nearby Barnes and Nobles.

Today we're going to just stay inside and enjoy the ac.  Stay cool everyone!

Early morning tai-chi and muffins

Sometimes baby Chuck Norris likes to do early morning tai-chi.  Today I woke up to his shuffling hands and feet and couldn't fall back sleep.  Since I was already up, I decided to bake some strawberry and banana muffins.  

Does anyone know how to get a muffin top?

They ended up being tasty and moist, but the strawberries took on a strange fleshy texture (yuck).  Next time I'll try using blueberries instead.  

Guess who?

Today we picked up a friend from the airport.  She'll be staying with us for a week.  I'm very excited!  Can you guess who she is?

Hint:  These toes have known each other since  the 1st grade!

RIP Tom 1

Sadly, when Tom's red exterior,

Spoke of his flav'ry interior,

My hand had to act,

The fruit I did snatch,

And I savored his taste so superior.
