SHI BLOGS TOO

Heading into a heat wave.

Today marks the start of a high pressure system here in Western Washington. This system will push our temperatures up into the high 80's for today and continue through the 4th. of July weekend! By Friday it could even bring temperatures well into the 90's here.

We will be leaving for Eastern Washington on Friday morning to spend the holiday weekend at Moses Lake with Ron's sister and mother. We will get to see the 4th. of July fireworks above the lake there. It has become a holiday tradition for us now. I'm sure it will be sizzling hot over there! If we are lucky, there may even be a breeze blowing off of the lake.

We are all looking forward to this visit. Ron will be making some of his wonderful chop suey when we get there. His sister and his mom are in for a treat. They have never tasted his delicious speciality before. I'm sure they will love it as much as he and I do. It not only is a taste bud pleaser, but it is so colorful to see! He usually dices a red bell pepper into it, amongst all the rest of the vegtables, sauce, and pork. Then serves it over steamed rice. Not your typical (barbecued) dinner for the fourth of July...but a light and lovely dish for sure.

Hope you all have a great 4th. of July weekend! I know I will.
