I have another what would you do situation. DD and I have noticed music coming from the neighbor's yard since Sunday afternoon. I don't remember hearing it yesterday when I left for work, but I made sure to pay attention today and it was still playing. It's loud enough to hear across the street. This is very unusual for them. Also, they come and go a lot. All day long. I haven't noticed any activity this week. No lights in the house either. Dog not barking. Maybe they are on vacation? I was thinking about asking DD to go over there later, not alone and knock on the door. Or maybe try to catch the next door neighbor who is friends with them. Or maybe call the police to check on them. What do you guys think?
It could be that they are out of town and kept the music on to make it look like someone is home. Or there could be a problem. I think a safety check is in order unless you can get a hold of a friend/relative.
I got a craving for cantaloupe! So, I got dressed and ran to a local produce store in this horrible humidity. UGH! But, it sure was worth the trip. This cantaloupe is the size of a small watermelon! Holy Cow! It was just $2. I also picked up some sweet cherries that were just $1.49 /lb (usually $2.99 or more in stores), some organic bananas for $0.19 and three bunches of scallions for $1. I feel like I hit the jackpot! Can't wait to slice open that cantaloupe. I'm letting it chill in the fridge for now.

Love LOVE! fresh fruits and veggies and the prices this time of year.

I didn't need any veggies but I can't wait to go back to get some when I do. Their prices are ridiculously reasonable at this place. Even the locally produced milk is cheaper there.
Woohoo! I'm hearing thunder off in the distance. Checking the radar, it looks like a good thunder-boomer is heading my way! I sure hope it lasts long enough to cool off this humidity.
I've never had cast iron so I'm no help in how to clean it up.
Well, the storm fizzled out. Dagnabit. A lot of thunder and dark clouds but no rain at all. I'm bummed. It's still so freakin humid! I knew I should've bought a window AC unit or something for this summer. UGH!

Haven't tried it, but I've heard that putting it in
your oven on the self-cleaning cycle will get rid
of most of the crud on cast iron. Of course, you
will have to "season" it again, but that's not a
big deal.
