Erin took the day off to take the children (and her sister and her children) to the amusement park in Charlotte. I stayed home to work, but used my lunch break to cook up a batch of hot sauce. After work, I put on my GORUCK 15L Bullet pack with a 20-pound weight and a water bladder and then went for a hike in the woods behind our house, and then in the woods behind the high school. I came home, made
Gazpacho Andaluz with the yellow tomatoes I bought at the Carrboro Farmers Market on Saturday. While the soup chills and I wait for the family to return, I strained the cherry bounce that my friend Rose had brought over after her trip to pick cherries in June and put the bottle into the fridge.
