+ Real Time Farms Joins Food52 in New Partnership. Woop! As they said in their announcement, "we're like internet soulmates." Yes, yes we are. They have a video on the right way to load a dishwasher. This might be love. Clearly I'm now obviously completely justified in re-loading other people's dishwashers who are doing it wrong. No? Oh well then...

+ In honor of our brand spanking new partnership, I made my first Food52 recipe, Sweet & Savory Tomato Jam. This is so good, adjectives are failing me. It's like tomato crack (in the best possible sense).

+ Candy from another country. Yup, the way to my heart just might be through my belly.

+ This moment, the one that I was anticipating, I got it. We have a new giant pillow in the playroom, and today, when I flopped down on it, our daughter flopped her little head on my belly. It only lasted for a few seconds, before she was off and whirring with activity again, but it was one of the very best moments of my day.

Cicada Killer Wasps. Yes, they are huge. And they've taken over our patio. Gah.
