Wonderful and VERY WET day at the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival yesterday. So very wet! Came home with one Romney fleece and enough Cotswald and silk roving to make a sweater.

I love this festival - it's such of mix of people, but honestly I was surprised to see nuns! Also lots of men in kilts (accompanied by a discouraging number of long, yellowish gray beards braided with beads on the end).

Looking down the main drag of the fair grounds. The sky is dark, it's raining, and most people are in raincoats and umbrellas.
Three covered sheep in a pen. The one in front is brown faced, the two in back are white sheep. Straw covered the ground and there is a blue plastic pail with water in it.
Four sheep eating hay from a black container in a pen. Straw covers the ground. Three of the sheep are black sheep, and one is brown.

I live for this event every year. Acres and acres of animals, supplies, and deep fried Twinkies. Anyone else going?

The large gray poodle described in the previous picture has shifted. He is still sleeping but lying upright now, one paw still protectively curled around the stuffed moose toy.
The large gray poodle lies on his side again, the moose toy forgotten laying by his side.

We made overnight steel cut oats and they were a huge smash!

The night before, put 2 cups of water in a pan, and bring to a boil. When it boils, add a pinch of salt and 1 cup steel cut oats. Stir, turn the heat off, and cover, leaving overnight. In the morning, stir the oats, add about 1/2 cup milk (more or less, depending on how you like the consistency), and cook for about 5 - 8 minutes, and serve!

@jonobie We definitely do that in the summer - with fresh peaches stirred in!

We vary it each time - this time we added medjool dates and cinnamon to the soak. The dates completely fell apart overnight and sweetened the oats. It was really good!

Good news on the car theft front: the insurance reimbursement is significantly higher than we expected. That's a nice surprise and a bit of a relief!

We found this treasure at a flea market when we were in Detroit. The painting is about 3' x 3' and cost more to ship back than it did to buy it! It brings us great joy.

Chokeberry in bloom! This year I'm going to try my hardest to get to the berries before the birds do!

Oh man. Came out of tai chi class tonight to discover our car had been stolen. 😔

For DC folks it was parked in Brookland on a quiet residential street. And was locked.

Did anyone remember to defeat Fire Lord Ozai during the eclipse?

Mr. and Mrs. Smith is the most endearing show about assassins that I've ever seen.
