This weekend I...


This weekend I...

went to the zoo!!
We actually did this Friday, but since Craig now has every Friday off, our weekend starts a day early :) (Well until I go back to work in August.) It was a perfect day at the Oregon zoo. I also saw this sign, which is yet another reason why Kimye did their daughter no favor with that name.
We had some inappropriate comments about this, and how Ms.
Kardashian became famous herself.
Saturday we hung out around town and hit up the farmers markets and headed over to Rogue to enjoy the sunshine on the farm.


We also thought it would be good to harvest our cherries. For the last 3 summers, our trees have always produced gallons and gallons of fruit. This year, this is all we got.

How depressing. We did have to cut down one of the cherry trees in the fall, so I was expecting less, but this is just sad. Especially with the amount of cherry pits on the ground. I say the tree is sad because we killed it's tree friend.
Sunday the rains came. I did manage to have lunch with a girlfriend, but after that I was at home. The gloomy weather made me want to make cookies. Luckily Melissa at Lulu and Sweet Pea tweeted the link to her peanut butter cookie recipe. Craig loves peanut butter cookies, so I decided to make a batch. They were super moist and chewy! Delicious!

How was your weekend? Any ideas why my dumb cherry tree sucks?

Sounds like a great weekend. Even though you had a rainy day, at least you got cookies! :)

LOLOLOLOL at the Northwest comments. I can only imagine what might be said about that. ;) Also, zoos are awesome, and I'm jealous of your farmer's market. And your cherries, although I also mourn with you that they are not as abundant as previous years.
