Summertime and the Living is Slow

So is the cooking.

Beach has been amazing so far. Can't wait for Family Beach Day on July 12. The Official Annual Polikoff Family Beach Day is early this year. Hope the weather cooperates!!! We order dinner in from Mother Kelly's in Cedarhurst. Their balsamic chicken is the best (so everyone says), the linguine with white clam sauce is good too. I love their salad and the bean stuff they send on the side.

We eat and drink and play and sit and talk and swim and sun and relax from noon until after dinner. It's a great day. This year we have 25 people all together. It will be a great day!

Tower Diner re-opened yesterday after there was a fire on their block about a month ago. So of course, we had to order in. I had a turkey burger (theirs are pretty good). Michael had a turkey burger also, but his was bigger than mine :) and came with no bun and sauteed mushrooms and broccoli on the side. We ordered a bacon, egg and cheese on a roll for Jesse (one of his favorite foods). All was yummy! Glad they are back in business.

Last Saturday we went to Aegean Cove with Joe and Denise and sat outside. All was outstanding!

Sunday was the 4th of July at the Shapiros. A great evening and great fireworks all around their neighborhood.

Tomorrow, Costco opens right in our neighborhood. Could be a good thing. We'll see.

No plans yet for Friday or Saturday nights. Sunday at Glenn and Eileen's for a pool party for Emily's 17th birthday. Great friends, food and wine!!! And Monday is Family Beach Day.

See you on the flip side...
