5/29: a good birthday
Today is Chris' birthday, and it's an amazingly good thing that he was born. On top of that abiding goodness, we've had a great day. A road trip to central Arkansas with stops at the Russellville panaderia and the Salvadorean restaurant in Danville. Some photo ops along the way, plus a stop at a roadside store for local honey and mayhaw jelly (which I didn't know existed until today). A DVD late-afternoon matinee at home, and some phone calls with family. Then a walk around the yard after dinner. On our walk we saw the first baby fig of the season, two green tomatoes, and a bunch of wild raspberries and blackberries. We made a peripatetic dessert of the berries, which we picked and ate as we walked.

I convinced Steve to walk the 25 minutes (each way) to the new Michoacana ice cream shop. It's a new Mexican-owned business and is the best ice cream in town (which says a lot because we also have a Ben and Jerry's). Steve agreed, it was worth the walk and the crowd that was gathering to check out something awesome!
Today was also the chickens' first day outdoors in their new baby coop. Summer arrived overnight after weeks and weeks of dreary, cold and rainy weather. All in all, a great day!
How perfect to have a walk to the ice cream shop on a summery day! And I hope the chickens are making a smooth transition to the outdoors....
