A sprinkling of summer

We have had some very warm weather temps here for a few days.

Warmer temps for us means the Muir's eat more fish. I've been making fish at least 3 times a week, trying out some new recipes.
We have also been going on walks in the morning and each evening.  We go on a scavenger hunt trying to pick out things we haven't seen in the winter or new things that have been popping up.

We also went shoe shopping, so the kids are sporting new kicks.

The kids and I had a play date at a new park in Darien.  It was such a hot day and the ice cream truck pulled up and it brought back nostalgic memories of living in NYC.  After some resistance from me I gave in and the kids chose what they wanted.

Katie chose a "Barbie" ice cream - meaning it had pink sprinkles...and Mikey chose a Popsicle.

A new recipe everyone likes, whole roasted  Branzino.

Katie's Barbie Ice Cream and Mikey's pop.

The Lazy days of summer are quickly approaching.

She refused to let me help her.
New sneakers.  Mikey picked out Katie's saying that she likes purple and pink.  He was right, she loves them!  Mikey's light up when he walks and he loves showing everyone how they work.

These flowers will fall soon enough and be replaced by leaves.  A tree in our neighborhood.

Mikey spotted this big bumble bee during one of our walks.  Can you spot it?!

Friends, Elly and Katie.
