Thursday Thoughts

Today's thoughts are red, white, and blue - Happy July 4! I hope everyone has a terrific celebration. We are doing our usual, low-key 4th of July thing: meeting up with T, seeing a movie, going to dinner, coming home to watch some TV, and when the fireworks start, maybe heading out to the deck to watch through the trees!

Last weekend we met friends for lunch at Aladdin's. I wish we had an Aladdin's in Robinson. I had the Sfiha Plate. Sfiha is ground meat, onions, tomatoes, pine nuts, herbs in a pita. The plate comes with salad. I like the warm spiciness of this dish, with just a bit of heat.

What We're Eating:

• Grilled Chicken, Grilled Zucchini, Potato Salad
• Dessert: Whatever we find in the house

What We're Watching:

• We finished Season 3 of Jessica Jones. I think I liked it best of the three seasons.
• We started The Crown on Netflix. I can't believe we've waited so long to watch this show!
• Stranger Things 3 starts today. We might have to take a break from The Crown.

What I'm Reading:
Magazines. On the bright side, my subscription to Smithsonian Magazine ended so the pile won't get any higher than the 7 issues sitting there now.
