…sunny, warm and quiet
After the Labour Day Weekend it gets pretty quiet at the cottage. Once the kids are back at school the rush to get to the cottage diminishes considerably. Lucky me!

….yum!
I brought home some of the sour dough starter from the Inn. I thought I kept it on the counter too long but decided to try using it anyway. I baked it in the Dutch oven and made sure to preheat it before putting the loaf inside. I was very pleased with how much it rose in the oven and the crust and taste were wonderful.


…and no missing pieces
I started this puzzle over a year ago. I put it aside rolled in a piece of black felt but it was always in sight. Back in January I unrolled it and put it at the far end of the kitchen table.
Darlene Kulig is one of my favourite local artists and she is the mother of two former students. She has had some of her paintings made into jigsaw puzzles and this is one of them.

When I started to continue with this puzzle I had barely finished the perimeter.



Two nights ago I finally finished this 1000 piece puzzle. It took me a month to finish it but I persevered and the best part was that all the pieces were there.

…at the Rex
Last week friends, Phil and Laurie invited us to join them to hear their favourite alternative jazz band, the Neon Eagle. What a treat, they were fantastic!



The following video was not from today’s performance but the venue is the same and it will give you some idea of the music we experienced. https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=bVu4Qxn1_ls&si=sdIgkzH7TH8OJvE_

…looking through the archives
All these trios came from my 2016 archives but one photo is clearly over 40 years old. Can you pick out which one it is?
