Frugal Family Fun ~ Hot Days Here Today

I started the day off by watering our gardens and picking lettuce.  The lettuce will be made into salads for this very hot day today.  I'm so glad we plant a garden.  It saves us so much money, and provides a healthier meal as well.  We also picked some fresh home grown strawberries.
The weather today is up in the high 90's, but feels like 100°.  It is not even comfortable to sit in the porch either.  The kids found something fun to do.  I may have to join them.

Cat Days of Summer

Really Mattie?  The kitchen table?  Sheesh.  She must think she's queen of the castle today.  Good grief.

Meet Aurora (black calico) and Joey (golden tiger)They think the lawn furniture was put outside for their convenience.
