wimmhtw* 7.9

1. Yesterday we went to a favorite restaurant, and I got my favorite there—prime rib sandwich with tiny French fries. And the sandwich was really good, as always, but those fries were literally perfect. They came out hot, crisp, and perfectly seasoned. Perfectly. They were perfectly perfect. I feel like I will never get shoestring fries prepared as well again. They were the peak. Thank you, J. Alexanders!

2. I’ve been watching Food Network’s Great Food Truck Race since the beginning, and I am really enjoying this season. There is a lot of good drama, and even a villain to root against. My favorite team is already out, but it wasn’t a surprise, as they’d been having a lot of trouble finding the right location in L.A. But I am still fascinated by the competitors in this season, and I can’t wait to see who wins.

3. As I sit here, I can look out the back window and see a truly beautiful evening. It’s sunny, but there’s not a lot of wind. It’s not raining at the moment, but it did rain over the weekend, helping to fend off drought. The trees are green and reaching high into the sky, and it just feels like an ideal summer evening. That makes me happy.
