something something yardwork makes beer sweeter

Today's been busy. Got tomato plants, carrot and cucumber seeds, bags of compost. Took the dogs to the vet for their shots and heartworm/tick medication, then got down to business. Weeded the vegetable garden, turned the soil with a garden fork, poured out the compost, worked it in. Found a few potatoes from last year I must've missed, and which had started sprouting. Planted those, came inside, had a shower and poured a beer.

We have company over and my partner and friend are making macarons. They do this semi-regularly, but have declared this batch "not our finest hour". The batter a bit loose, taking way more time to sit before going in the oven. Lemon macarons with lemon and strawberry curd. Having a couple of the worst-looking ones with a Belgian-style 8% blonde. Absolutely glorious. And grateful for everything. Back hurts, leg hurts, heart's full.
