Friday Night- Lettuce tomatoes and ice cream cake?

A small portion of the lettuce I harvested last night.  I harvested about one sixth of what is out there. Since we hit 100 degrees today, I will finish harvesting all the last of our lettuce in the next few days.  While what we have is holding strong, it won't for much longer, and it has stopped regrowing underneath.  I was pretty fortunate to have lettuce this long!


We are looking forward to Wyatt's birthday coming up- especially him!  The tradition here is that you get to design your own cake.  For Wyatt, that means an ice cream cake.  Chocolate cookie crust, mint chip ice cream, Oreo cookie layer...


Did you notice the different cookies?  Someone decided to eat the ingredients...


Today he picked out the next layers... at least it will be a deterrent to me against overeating... Reese's ice cream (if peanut butter wasn't a strange enough ice cream, right next to the mint...) then a thick layer of chocolate sprinkles...


With that back in the freezer to harden for the next chunk, it was back to chores.  Shadow couldn't face the chores, and Wyatt had his bedding out to wash, so she helped herself.


Well, the three little Black Javas are doing well.  I am thinking there may be one rooster.  Do you all agree? They aren't so sure about me yet, but they got their pen cleaned today, and seem to have grown some in the time they have been here.


Well, morning comes early.  Hope you all have a blessed Saturday!
