Clarling Around Mad Town

The Adventures of Claire and Karl

Karl + Claire= Clarl









Thursday, July 22, 2010

The summer has been flying by way too fast and we've been so busy! (So many fun things to do and so much wonderful summer foods to enjoy!) We apologize for the lack of posts, hopefully we'll start picking it up again pretty soon.


Karl played in a triples volleyball tournament in Oshkosh a couple of weeks ago. We camped out the night before. Karl grilled

us some brats on our tiny grill, I found the most amazing marshmallow roasting stick ever and we made "Karl Roth's" and "Claire-belle's" for dessert. (I'm sure Karl can expand on that later.) We got a bit of a weather delay Saturday afternoon but it was a fun day.

We've been getting trout from the Farmer's market every weekend and have been grilling it once a week. It's been amazing and I think we've got Jane hooked on it too. We've mostly just been eating seasoned and breaded but we also tried it in fish tacos and it was excellent.


The garden has been doing well. We're going to be overwhelmed with cherry tomatoes once they start ripening and we're already up to our ears in cucumbers. If you're interested in a jar of pickles - let us know. I think our pepper plants are going to produce one pepper per plant, hopefully. Those darn rabbits . . .


We just got back from a trip to Crested Butte, CO. Karl's dear friend, Andrea, just got married this past Saturday. It was beautiful, truly. The ceremony was so sweet and sincere and the backdrop was magnificent. We had our wonderful time and met so many wonderful people. If it wasn't for the nine months of winter, we probably would've stayed.
