I’m not the kind of person who complains about the weather. I take it as it is and enjoy each day as it comes… I don’t mind the extreme heat, nor the cold, neither the snow, the wind nor the rain… as long as the weather changes regularly… but I think I have had enough of rainy weekends now… honestly since the beginning of June there as not been a single day without rain at some point, and every single weekend has been rainy if not heavily rainy… And usually on rainy weekends we do stupid things (that we never regret! Don’t get me wrong!). 7 years ago we started browsing internet and ended up buying our country house in a flash… sometimes we spend rainy weekends at an arcade and batting center, and last month we browsed internet again and bought a new car…
Oh yes… a car to go to the beach… well now I just wonder when we will go as a typhoon is coming just for the weekend of course. If I had an outdoor job I wouldn’t mind rainy weekends, but my job gets me stuck indoor 12h/day so I miss the rare sunshine…
What else do I do when it rains?
I cook… sweets… of course… to compensate for the lack of activity!!!
I bake and bake and bake… and this time it was coconut milk and white chocolate scones… which were perfect for both breakfast and tea-time! Simple recipes give often the best results: flour, sugar, baking powder, and then coconut milk, coconut oil, and white chocolate chips… that’s it… all mixed together, and baked…
I wish you a happy weekend, stay dry if you are in Japan…
