Today is the deadline: convert your Walmart points

I finally got around to trying that new bakery on Elm Street and honestly it was worth the wait. The sourdough had the perfect crust and the inside was so airy. I also picked up a cinnamon roll that was still warm from the oven. My kids devoured it before I even had a chance to taste it. I think next time I will grab two. The line moved pretty fast even though it looked long when we pulled up. I will probably go back on Saturday morning before the rush hits. Let me know if you want me to grab you a loaf when I go. I can drop it off on my way back if you are home. Just text me what you want and I will add it to my order. They also have these little chocolate croissants that are dangerously good. I might need to start jogging again if I keep going there.

I just finished reorganizing my garage shelves and it feels like a whole new space. I found a box of old camping gear I forgot we even had. The tent is still in great shape and the sleeping bags just needed a quick air out. I think we should plan a weekend trip before the weather turns. My schedule is pretty open next month except for the second weekend when I have that work thing. Let me know what dates work for you and we can figure out a spot. I was thinking somewhere with good hiking trails and maybe a lake nearby. The kids have been asking to go again. We could keep it simple just a couple of nights. I will bring the food and the cooking gear if you handle the firewood and the campsite reservation. It would be nice to unplug for a few days and actually sit around a fire.

Yeah I totally get what you mean about the raised beds. I built mine last spring with cedar planks and they've held up really well through two seasons of heavy rain. I lined the bottom with landscape fabric and then filled with a mix of topsoil and compost from the local nursery. The tomatoes went crazy this year — I had to stake them twice because they kept outgrowing the cages. My neighbor suggested adding a drip irrigation kit and honestly that was the best upgrade I've made. Just set it on a timer and forget about it. The herbs on the other hand were a bit finicky at first. I think I overwatered the basil and the mint tried to take over the whole box so I had to pull some out. Next year I want to try carrots and maybe some bell peppers if I can get the soil pH right. If you're thinking about building your own I'd say go for it just make sure you get the depth right for whatever you plan to grow. 585D75NM8psrZN Let me know if you want me to send you the plan I used — it's pretty straightforward and I have all the measurements saved.

I've been meaning to ask you about that hiking trail you mentioned last month. We finally took the drive up last weekend and it was absolutely worth the early start. The parking lot was already half full by 7:30 so I'm glad we left when we did. The first two miles are a steady climb through pine forest and then it opens up to this incredible ridge with views of the valley below. We packed sandwiches and sat on a big flat rock for lunch — the weather was perfect, cool breeze and no clouds. My dog came along too and she handled the elevation better than I did honestly. There's a waterfall about three miles in that most people miss because the side trail isn't marked well. You have to look for a cluster of mossy boulders and then follow the sound of the water. We nearly turned back but I'm so glad we didn't. The whole loop took us about five and a half hours with breaks. I'd say it's moderate difficulty — there are a few steep sections but nothing you need gear for. You should definitely put it on your list for this season before the snow starts. 585D75NM8psrZN Let me know when you want to go and I'll share the exact route we took.

Yeah I finally finished reorganizing the garage last weekend it took way longer than expected but now I can actually park my car in there again.

The hardest part was deciding what to keep and what to donate I had three bins of old cables and electronics that I probably have not touched in five years.

I installed some heavy duty shelving from the hardware store and labeled everything it feels like a completely different space now.

Found my old camping gear too which makes me want to plan a trip soon maybe next month when the weather cools down a bit.

It is amazing how much stuff we accumulate over time without really noticing it until we have to sort through everything.

Thank you for being a Walmart member.

This is a transactional message regarding your membership rewards.

I tried making sourdough starter from scratch last week and it was quite the experience.

Day three it smelled like acetone and I thought I ruined it but apparently that is totally normal for that stage.

I kept feeding it regularly and by day seven it was super bubbly and smelled pleasantly tangy.

Baked my first loaf yesterday and it turned out way better than expected the crust was perfectly crispy and the inside was soft and airy.

I am already planning my next batch maybe adding some rosemary and sea salt or trying a cinnamon raisin version.

It is such a rewarding process highly recommend trying it if you have the patience to wait for the dough to rise properly.

Yeah I finally made it up to that trail we talked about last month. The weather was perfect and the views from the top were incredible. We started early around 6am and the mist was just lifting off the valley. Took about three hours to reach the summit with a few breaks along the way. The wildflowers were still blooming which surprised me for this late in the season. I packed way too much food as usual but better safe than sorry. The descent was trickier than I expected with all the loose gravel. Definitely need to get better hiking boots before the next trip. jSRDWCDtpsjWtE My knees were complaining for two days afterward but it was totally worth it. Let me know if you want to join next time I go.

I tried that pasta recipe you sent me and it turned out amazing. The sauce was so rich and flavorful I couldn't believe it came together in under 30 minutes. I added a bit more garlic than called for and used fresh basil from the garden. The key was letting the sauce simmer just long enough to thicken naturally. I served it with some crusty bread and a simple side salad with lemon vinaigrette. My family loved it and asked me to make it again next week. The leftovers were even better the next day. I'm thinking of trying the variation with mushrooms and spinach next time. Thanks for sharing the recipe it's definitely going into regular rotation.

Expiring soon, your Verizon point

Hey, thanks for your message about the hiking trail. I ended up going last weekend and it was absolutely packed. I guess everyone had the same idea since the weather was so nice. The wildflowers were blooming like crazy near the top. We brought sandwiches and ate them overlooking the valley. eQOfctgJ8dcN7p It took us about four hours to do the full loop. My legs were pretty sore the next day, but it was totally worth it. Let me know if you want me to send you the exact route we took. I saved it on my phone. Anyway, hope you and the family are doing well. Talk soon.

I finally decided to sign up for those guitar lessons I kept talking about. The first session was last night and my fingers already hurt. The instructor is a really chill guy in his sixties who used to play in a jazz band. He started me on some basic chords. I can barely switch between them without a long pause. He said muscle memory takes a few weeks. I'm determined to stick with it this time. I bought a used acoustic guitar last month. It has a nice warm tone. Hopefully I can play a full song by the end of the summer. Any tips for a beginner?

Hey, I finally tried that new ramen place you told me about. The broth was amazing, but I think I added too much chili. I ended up drinking three glasses of water. Did you ever finish setting up the shelves? I found a better drill attachment if you need it. Also, I started rewatching that old series we loved. It holds up surprisingly well. l5UrI1FST2a Anyway, let me know when you're free next week. We should catch up properly.

I think we should go with the earlier hiking plan instead of the beach. The forecast looks clear that weekend and the wildflowers are supposed to be incredible. I already checked the trail maps and there's a nice viewpoint about halfway. We can pack sandwiches and make an afternoon of it. What do you think? Also do you still have that camping stove? I can bring the coffee. Let me know if you want to invite anyone else or keep it small.

I just finished reading that article you sent about the hiking trails in North Carolina. The pictures were incredible, especially the ones from Linville Gorge. I have been trying to convince my cousin to go on a trip with me next spring, but she keeps bringing up how unpredictable the weather can be. I think that is half the fun honestly. A little rain never hurt anyone. Let me know if you have ever been there around April. I am starting to put together an itinerary and would love some first-hand advice. 9HbGgx6gcPIIau Also, do you think we would need bear canisters or is that just for overnight stays? We are planning mostly day hikes but might do one overnight loop. I remember you mentioning something about a good campsite near the river.

I tried that new pasta place downtown you were telling me about. The one with the fresh pasta made in-house. I got the carbonara and it was honestly some of the best I have had outside of Italy. The ambiance was a little loud for my taste, but the food made up for it. We sat near the kitchen and could see them rolling out the dough. I want to try making pappardelle at home now. I saw they sell a pasta attachment for the standing mixer I have. Have you ever used one of those? I read a review that said it is tricky to get the thickness right without practice. Maybe I will just stick to buying the dried stuff for now, but eventually I would love to master fresh pasta. Anyway, thought I would share.
