camping!

i went camping at lake easton this past weekend. it was a lot of fun. i must have remembered some stuff from all those camping trips back in high school because i set up a tent almost by myself. stone had an assist. :D we had campfires, marshmallows, smores, bacon and eggs, french toast, spam musubi, sandwiches, penne pasta, spinach salad, french bread, cup noodles, hotdogs - basically, a lot of good food. and, we still have pasta leftovers, which will be our lunches and dinners for days. we played lawn bowling, went canoeing, played volleyball, king elephant, taboo, and just hung out by the fire. definitely a super fun trip.

today we visited ikea for the last day of the sale. then it was using up the extra tomatoes by making salsa and putting some of the extra pasta in a cassarole for a 4th of july potluck. the movie of the evening was independence day and fireworks were seen from the rooftop of stone and his roommate's queen anne apartment. there were a lot of people packed into a limited space and lots of fun had by all.

and it's back to work. bleh.
