Today has been a little more relaxed than yesterday's non stop activity.  I actually had time to catch up on Top Chef today which gave me something to think about on my solo easy bike ride through the countryside.  I can't believe those girls made such a dull pasta salad.  I'm pretty sure I've made pasta salads better than that with just the ingredients in the larder.  Plus, shouldn't they have known that the bowtie pasta was going to spread out and take over the entire plate? Not the best for a buffet line.  I'm totally pulling for the brothers from Frederick.  

Next up is a swim at the town pool--one of the last outdoor pool swims of the year.  I have to go so that I can take part in the bon voyage swim for 2 of my lanemates who are leaving on Monday to swim the English Channel.  They are doing a double crossing actually, as a relay of 4.  Each person swims 1 hour, then they switch.  No wetsuits, cold water, strong currents.  

Looking forward to Labor Day weekend...I've been checking around for a church supper, but haven't found anything that will compare to the one in Thurmont.  I hope I at least can visit one junk sale over the weekend!!
