SUMMER IS HERE

 Well we have finally reached the summer days.  Ours came in like a lion.  First the heat of a 2nd day in the 90sF and then abruptly around three pm the storm hit.  Furious, it was.  Thunder and lightning and pounding rain.  The good thing is the air cooled down immediately to 72 degrees.  We lost our cable but not our power which is a good thing.  I was able to make my big pot of mashed potatoes. I wanted enough leftovers to try a new recipe, Mashed Potato Cakes.  If it works like I hope it will, I won't have to grate potatoes to make my usual Lithuanian Belinkis which are potato pancakes.  The grating takes its toll on me so if I can find another way, I'll try it.  I will let you know soon.  

Have a wonderful summer my friends.
