Yeah I totally get what you mean about the weather lately. We were supposed to go camping last weekend but ended up staying home because of the rain. Honestly it worked out fine because I finally got around to organizing the garage which has been on my to-do list for months. Found some old photo albums from college which was a fun trip down memory lane.

Have you seen the forecast for next week? They're saying it might clear up by Thursday so maybe we can reschedule. Let me know what works for you and I'll bring the snacks this time. Also I've been meaning to ask if you've tried that new bookstore downtown yet. I walked past it the other day and the window display looked really inviting. Might go check it out this weekend if the weather cooperates.

Anyway let me know about next week and we can firm up plans. I'm free most evenings after six and all day Saturday. Just give me a heads up a day or two before so I can plan accordingly.

Oh I totally forgot to tell you about the pasta I made last night. I found this recipe online that looked pretty straightforward so I gave it a try. It had this creamy mushroom sauce with a hint of garlic and fresh thyme. Honestly I was surprised at how well it turned out since I'm not usually great at following recipes.

The key was to let the mushrooms brown properly before adding the cream otherwise it gets soggy. I served it with some crusty bread and a simple side salad. Next time I think I'll add some spinach too just to get some greens in there. Anyway you should come over sometime and I'll make it for you.

Just let me know when you're free and we can figure out a date. I was also thinking we could try that board game café that opened up on Main Street. I heard they have a great selection and the coffee is pretty good too. Let me know what you think.
