Tree in Belfast

I love Belfast, Maine. I love the food co-op, I love the harbor, I love the architecture, I love the big laundramat that I never have had to wait for washers. I don't so much like driving in Belfast-it's worse than Camden. Imagine drunken sailors designing the layout. So, it's great for foot traffic.

My longest best friend helped (ie, he did the work while I got in the way) me replace the brake pads on the front of the car this afternoon. Yay! Driving in Belfast is challenging enough without squealing breaks heralding one's arrival. :P

Belfast

Took a road trip to Belfast today with major laundry in tow. Good excuse to wander the town. During the wash cycle, I hiked down to the waterfront and grabbed some pics.

Dryer time, I canvassed the local whole foods shop and found several nice snacky organic treats for the kids-plus a stock up on spices; oregano, chili powder, sage, mustard seed. And a trip through whole grains; some cashews, organic red lentils and dall.

Looked longingly at the organic yerba mate and homebrewing supplies-next trip.

Indian fare in the offing-think I covered most of the basic ingredients for a big feed tomorrow. Just off to google a few things...lol
