Not Bad If You Care for Beauty

This is the view from the porch of the little cottage where I'm staying. It has been hot but not unbearably so, so I am making croissants. Because, really: butter and flour and yeast. What's not to like.

Maybe I'll start revising another chapter before I have to check and see if the dough is rising properly.


ETA: and last night a peacock ran down the wash! Seriously. And those things can get up a serious head of steam when they're running. Several people (including Will and a neighbor) went out to try to catch the thing, figuring better the humans than the coyotes, but alas...no catching. Hope the bird's all right.
