So much for kicking back and relaxing. Guilt can be a powerful thing, and such a beautiful day as today is a rare thing indeed, so rare, that the opportunity to trim the overgrown hedges in the back of the yard under such pristine conditions might not have come again soon, so I abandoned my indooor plans and cleaned up the back fence and some other forsythias in the yard. I must say, it looks hundreds of times better, and there is satisfaction in having completed the job. Also, sprayed the front hostas to help keep away the deer and rabbits.
To celebrate, I grilled up some zucchini, eggplant and vidalia onions, followed by a steak; we drained a 2005 Schloss Schönborn Estate Reisling that I had bought for W.’s First Holy Communion that was left unopened, which was simply outstanding. The evening finished up with the backyard sunset while listening to Madame George. Sweetness, indeed.
