Hey! I was just thinking about that conversation we had yesterday about the hiking trails. I finally went and checked out the one you recommended near the river. The weather was perfect and the path was well maintained. I actually ended up taking a wrong turn at the fork and wound up on a longer loop, but it turned out to be a great mistake because the views were incredible. There was this little clearing with wildflowers everywhere and I sat there for a while just soaking it in. I should have brought more water though because the extra mileage caught up with me. Next time I'll pack a proper lunch and make a full day of it. Let me know if you want to join me on the next one, I think you'd really enjoy that longer loop now that I know where it goes. Also, the app you mentioned worked perfectly for offline maps, I used it the whole way and it didn't drain my battery much at all. I'm already planning to go back next weekend if the weather holds up. I'll send you the photos I took later tonight once I transfer them off my phone. v51lZHGhBK7GI That spot would make for a great picnic area if we bring a blanket and some snacks.

Oh yeah, I finally tried that pasta recipe you sent me last week. It turned out really well actually, the sauce had just the right amount of heat. I added a bit more garlic than it called for because you know I can't help myself. The trick with reserving some pasta water before draining really made a difference in getting the sauce to coat everything nicely. I served it with a simple side salad with lemon vinaigrette and some crusty bread. My family cleaned their plates which is always the real test. I'm thinking of trying the variation with mushrooms next time since you mentioned it works well. Let me know if you have any other recipes like that one, I'm on a roll with trying new dishes. Also, that movie you recommended finally showed up on the streaming platform I use so I'm planning to watch it this weekend. I'll let you know what I think, the trailer looked really promising.
