Today I had my turkey caprese sandwich again, with a few revisions- less tomato and mozzarella- and more basil, with a liberal squeeze of lemon juice. It added a light acidity that brightened up the flavors a bit without giving everything an overall lemony taste. I was going for a sort of lemon vinaigrette vibe. Decent, but not enough of a difference to really change the sandwich...
The summer-fresh vibe of my 'wich was completed with a perfectly ripened yellow nectarine. I love summer stone fruits!

The day was spent browsing the massive maze that is Ikea- with an obligatory stop at the cafe. I had a kid sized meal of meatballs smothered in gravy, mushy mac'n cheese, and a shared princess cake. Nothing was overly memorable, and everything tasted how I'd imagined- though the princess cake slightly exceeded my expectations. A nice light ending to my heavy meal. No cinnamon roll or soft serve this time...
I skipped out on my swim today, so no extra treats for me...thought that means I can't slack off tomorrow!
A cozy latte refuel, and it was back home just in time for dinner. A quick glazed ham lettuce wrap and later a piece of wheat bread with peanut butter...followed by an original drumstick...undoubtedly the highlight of my day!
