We did a little rock shopping today, as we’ve decided to turn our front yard into a rock garden to prevent groundhogs and other critters from digging massive holes near our foundation. We chose Susquehanna skipping rocks, which are not only colorful, but local, too, and they reminded me of the rocks and stones on the Rhine river where I grew up 
We’ll pep it up with a few flowers (likely Astilbe in various colors) so it’s not too bleak.
After my annual checkup we had delish carnitas & barbacoa tacos for lunch (since it’s Tuesday), then I drove my elderly neighbor to an appointment. I used the downtime before picking her up again to score a dozen ears of super-fresh corn from a farm nearby for $5 & gave her five of them.
Stripped 6 for freezing & made stock à la @LindaWhit & nuked the remaining ear for our ginormous dinner salad: iceberg, spring mix, local tomatoes, Persian cukes, celery, radish, green pepper, avocado, roti chicken, bacon & blue cheese — all tossed with augmented buttermilk ranch (garlic, shallot, lemon juice, s&p&s scallions & fresh parsley).
3 local HBEs I’d planned to add peeled so badly I turned them into a quick egg salad. Didn’t miss them with all the other stuff, TBH, plus we now have at least one future lunch.
