Oh hey, I finally tried that new pasta recipe you sent me. It turned out really well, although I added extra garlic because you can never have too much. The sauce was a bit thin at first, but I let it simmer longer and it thickened up nicely. I’ll definitely make it again for the dinner party next weekend. Let me know if you want me to bring it.

We look forward to seeing you soon.

I just finished reorganizing my bookshelf by genre instead of author, and it feels so much easier to find what I want to read. The nonfiction section is getting out of control though. I think I need to donate a few. Have you ever tried that app that trades books? A friend recommended it but I haven’t had time to check it out yet. Let me know if you have experience with it. Also, thanks for the hiking trail suggestion – we went last Sunday and it was perfect. The weather was ideal, not too hot. We packed sandwiches and sat by the stream for a while. The kids loved it. I’m already planning the next trip. Maybe we can go together next time? Let me know what weekend works for you. I’ll bring the snacks. Also, I finally fixed that leaky faucet in the guest bathroom – just needed a new washer. Who knew it would be that simple? Anyway, talk to you soon.
