Summer Traditions
Hey Everyone its Friday. Hope that everyone is having a great week so far. The weather got really hot really quick here. Today we topped out at over 90 degrees by mid afternoon. I think we have two seasons here, Extremely Hot and Extremely Cold. Although I have to say I prefer the Hot Weather. At least I can sit by the pool and work on my tan. I can go swimming too. This sunday we are heading out to a waterpark by our house. Geauga Lake Wildwater Kingdom. I enjoy going into the wave pool and getting a huge bucket of water dumped on me along with floating along a lazy river ride. Going down water slides are fun too. Its a nice way to pass the day by and cool down too. Those are the fun things in summer. Also grilling hot dogs, burgers and chicken. I have a rule when it comes to hot dogs and burgers. Burgers must always get ketchup and hot dogs must always have mustard. I am sure there is someone out there that does the opposite. The one summer tradition I have never understood is having vinegar or mayonnaise on french fries. Someone please explain that to me because it does not sound good at all? I ve actually seen an old tradition return around here in the last few years, and that is the ice cream man coming around in a truck. I remember seeing that in the 80s and then in the last few years. Maybe they have been around but I must have missed them. Summer is my favorite season and I am ready to get it started! I hope we have a nice long summer because here we had a really long cold snowy winter! Hope everyone has a chance to swim or go walking and enjoy a beautiful summer. Be Blessed.

Hey there, welcome to summer!!! We have had temps in the 70's all week but tomorrow is starting the first heat wave of the season. I have not heard of vinegar or mayo on french fries, must be something those weird people in Cleveland thought up ;) Well anyway I live at the Jersey Shore so you can imagine that summers here are crazy with vacationers (whom I wish would take their traffic and attitudes go home already!) and the boardwalks with their rides and games and the warm sandy beaches leading to the ocean. I love the smells of the garden with its flowers and tomatoes and basil. My favorite thing is grilling chicken and freshly picked veggies and YES I AM THE ONE that puts ketchup on my hot dogs and mustard on my burgers! Figured I'm already a heretic might as well go all the way :) Hope you have a great time at the waterpark....
