Sun & Sushi
We welcomed Andrew’s mom and sister here with record weather! It’s been in the upper 90’s and got up to 102 on Sunday! Last night thunder storms ushered in some cooler weather, in the low 70’s- I think they are a little relieved!:) We went to a friends house on lake Hayden on Sunday afternoon for a BBQ, they had a boat, jet skis (Andrew gave rides to his mom and sis- accidentally tipped his mom over but she still had fun!:), kayaks, and lovely water for swimming. Yesterday and today are shopping days for the girls, as there are a lot more stores here than in Eureka. Tonight- sushi party! My method for making sushi rice is super easy and yummy- click here for the basic recipe. We’ll be having some avocado/yam/cucumber/carrot rolls (so good with yam- a little sweetness to contrast the salty seaweed and soy sauce) as well as Andrew’s favorite- smoked salmon and cream cheese. Oh yum!
Also- we tasted our very first ripe peach from our peach tree in the backyard- it tasted great! Soon there will be peach jam, pies, crisps, and smoothies crankin’ out of the Fouche kitchen!
Hooray for the first ripe peach!!!
