My sister and I went to the Takoma Park Street Festival yesterday, and didn't stay long (although the festival was great) because of the overwhelmingly awful heat wave that took hold of Maryland the past two days. Luckily the weather forecast seems to show some improvement over the next week: temperatures in the 60's soon, I hope!

While at the festival, Jera (my sister) and I sipped pina colada smoothies and browsed the farmer's market goods. We purchased a loaf of homemade white bread and much to our amusement, tore pieces off the loaf and ate it as we walked back to our car.

Homemade bread is so good. No words can describe the differences between Wonderbread and an actual homemade loaf. There were so many delicious varieties offered, we finally settled on white just as a way of getting out of making a decision. Chili cheese bread? 5-grain? There were too many options.

I'm actually hungry now, seeing as my nutritious breakfast of Cocoa Puffs and coffee has worn off and I am left with a gnawing feeling in my stomach that is telling me to eat, and soon.

I have such a long day ahead of me (don't ask, just thinking about all I have to do might give me an ulcer) and so I know I have to eat in order to keep my energy up.

Lots of my friends don't eat breakfast, and then I have a few friends who don't eat lunch so they can have a huge dinner.

What meals do you skip occasionally, and why?
