The usual Sunday updatery

Yay, I have Sunday off for the first time in weeks! Yay, it's a lovely day with nary a cloud and no chilly crosswinds blowing down the Avenues! I wanted to go to the farmer's market at the other end of Clement as we hadn't gone in months, so we did! It's still kind of early in the season so it's not completely in full swing, but we bought a half-flat of strawberries for snacking, breakfast and ice cream making purposes, along with new tomato plants for the kitchen window (in which we are hoping that Jules does not notice them and/or think they're food). I stopped by the pet groomer's up the street to say thanks to the cat adoption team where we got Jules & Cali and donated a pack of cat treats. Carrying a half-flat of strawberries (six small baskets) plus two seedlings is kind of awkward, so we took the bus home. Nothing too exciting, but it felt really good to get out for a walk and see what's in season!

I spent the afternoon cleaning and vacuuming, and was actually surprised there were only four cat toys (read: crumpled-up paper balls) under the couch this time! The kitties do NOT like the mysterious tall and thin growling monster and hid in the kitchen with A until I was finished. I gave them treats afterwards to calm them down.

And yay, I have tomorrow off as well! I do need to call the Honda garage to set up a time for the recall thing -- I think it's a small computer update thing by the looks of it -- but other than that, I'm probably just going to chill, do the laundry and maybe some more cleaning. And WRITE, because I've been lazy these last few days!!
