On Our Day Off ★

We spent the week-end in the country for my father's legendary annual corn on the cob and bbq party. We played games (my petanque team made it to the finals!), ate a ton and tried not to melt in the hotter than hot weather. Alex, Ramiro and I decided we had to make it across the soy fields to go swim in the river but when we got there the boys rubbed against the wrong plant and got a crazy allergic reaction. Oh Summer adventures!

How was your week-end?

      Week-ends are the best :)

  5. I love the idea of a corn on the cob and bbq party! Corn on the cob is one of my favourite things to eat during the Summer. It always brings back memories of childhood, and I love that you get to eat it with your hands :)

    1. Corn on the cob is my absolute favorite food! We only get it one month out of the year here so I eat as much as I can :)

      Have a great week dear!
