Over the weekend, we celebrated my birthday (7th, clearly) with a fruit flan from Safeway. In the bakery, I held out a 4-inch chocolate cake and this 8-inch fruit flan, and asked Joseph which one? The big one, of course! He's inherited my sweet tooth. We also spent a lot of time sitting directly in front of the fan trying not to move. 90 degrees! What's happened to our mild Seattle summers? On my to-do list for next weekend is to order a portable air conditioner. We still have the entire month of August to sweat through, and Paul gets a heat rash so easily.
