Lunch

So proud of myself that I was able to poach an egg for lunch. I had never really tried to do it before and been successful. I tried a different method and it worked great. I boiled water and using a ramekin I dumped the egg into the boiling water and waited 4 minutes before I took it out with a slotted spoon. Also I was excited I had lettuce ready from the garden. The tomatoes are getting close to being ready.

I stopped in Auburn on the way home to get another stamp. I only need one more to have visited all the Gifford's in the state of Maine. I get entered into a drawing to win Red Sox tickets and need to complete it by August 1st. This goal is a lot easier than the time I decided to visit every Starbucks in the state of Maine (which I did do before I turned 30 ;)

This weekend I went to a family reunion and got to spend time with a bunch of my relatives. 
It was great seeing everyone. I am hoping to get more photographs of family from a relative that was taking pictures of everyone.

Today I went for a walk around the neighborhood. I love checking out all the houses and the landscaping.

Yesterday I got to hang out with family. It usually involves hanging out by the pool. My cousin's fiancé Jon had fun with the pool toys.

Lunch

I got this in the mail today from Subaru to put on my car.

I had fun in Portland today walking around the Old Port with my sister and my Mum. I got a new bracelet and got to try for free one of the new Starbucks drinks.

Tonight I made trip jars. I like to collect shells and i wanted a better way to display them. Today I collected shells and sand from Campobello island and I like the contrast with the sand I grabbed while in Key West.
I do like lighthouses especially West Quoddy. :)

East Quoddy Lighthouse on Campobello Island. I wish I had timed it better, I couldn't get to the lighthouse due to the high tide although the water was very pretty!

West Quoddy Lighthouse in Lubec, Maine

I've been to the easternmost point and the southernmost point in Florida. Wonder where the northernmost and westernmost points are and can I get to them. :)

Today I got to see a lot of friends. 
I had lunch with Allison, went to GreenDrinks and then had dinner with Jessica and Jenny.
Here is me with my friend Willow at GreenDrinks.

Tonight Jenny and I watched the first two movies of Star Wars series. She had never seen them so I thought it was best to start from the beginning.


Guard the pizza!
