Saturday, Ray and I enjoyed pilates and a visit to the Farmers' Market, where we got some summer squash (ours was done in by borers, we think), potatoes, a pork roast, and some Romano cheese. When we got home, my parents were making pesto in the mortar, by hand. They left us some and went home. Ray and I had lunch. I seem to spend an inordinate amount of time worrying about what we'll eat, preparing it and eating it. We've been doing well at cutting back on carbs and Ray has lost some weight. Not eating as much seems to have a bad effect on my depression, though. Hmm.

In the evening, we went to Cine for a showing of Chocolat with Ron and Janna. It was really good. I had missed a lot about the movie. For example, the Mayan connection. When I saw it before, I didn't have a daughter in Mexico, so it wasn't such a big thing. A really fun movie. Then we went to dinner at Big City Bread (review in the works). Ray and I were pretty moderate, ordering salads and splitting an entree, although I did not resist the chocolate mousse. They had beautiful cakes, too. When we got home, I worked on the review right away.

Yesterday morning, we went to church and I stayed for the Social Action meeting. Then Ray mowed some (in 90-degree heat) and we canned 3 pints of tomatoes. It seemed like there were a lot more than that. It was hot, exhausting work, and we didn't eat supper until 8, so I was a basket case.
