Afternoon snack: Leftover peppermint brownies eaten out at the end of the Bay Bridge. Tessa’s first time doing that ride all by herself.
Dinner: Tacos. We were in the checkout line when we realized we forgot the taco seasoning. So we turned to that classic tome of Mexican cuisine: The Joy of Cooking. The taco recipe includes a can of tomato sauce, which seemed weird. At the end of the day, with the addition of a little extra chili powder, they were fantastic.
Dessert: Flourarrangements lemon bars. The photo edition.
