So...summer has hit Richmond.
It's hot (shocking, I know).
We're finally getting accustomed to summers in the South:
1. Michael and I had our first apartment cockroach run-in. I freaked. Michael crushed the hell out of it. #win.
2. We went to Comfort Saturday night in honor of my college friend Teresa being in town and only ordered sides. I'm not kidding. We felt so Southern. Fried green tomatoes, cheddar grits, okra, beans, snap peas, mac & cheese: it was your every day carbo load heaven.
3. It's freaking hot here, and rather than hide from the sun yesterday we got out and enjoyed every sweaty sunbeating minute of Richmond. The crazy thing was people were doing a TRIATHALON in the heat down by the canal walk. I got heat stroke just watching them.
