Speaker 1Yes, we are.
Speaker 2Both of us. So we're like you know what. Maybe it's time just to take a break and let ourselves edit. When we're not edit, sit in a hammock.
Speaker 1Yeah, now we got to do what we've been talking about all spring, that we do, which is just go to weddings, go to weddings. Do our jobs, get ready for weddings, eat some chicken breasts over the sink.
Speaker 2I have been doing that a lot lately. Okay, quick tip for wedding season, if you're in canada and you have like the pc app or whatever, um, I made a list of groceries that I want to buy every week and now every week I just hit order and I go pick them up. And it is rotisserie chicken, it is hummus, baby bell cheeses, some straw, like everything you'd feed a toddler, basically straight out of the package.
Speaker 2You're gonna leave our listeners with a bad grocery list no, it's a practical one, because when you're getting ready for a wedding, you don't want to do cook and I don't want to do cook and I don't want to have to, like, do anything. I want to be able to eat a chicken breast and three strawberries and a baby bell cheese over the sink.
Speaker 1Also those little almond packs you put in your pocket.
Speaker 2Yeah, same In my mouth.
Speaker 1Yeah, I asked you if we had chips the other day and you said no. But we have salted almonds Like come on.
Speaker 2Almond partner.
Speaker 1Yeah, so we are leaving you with this sad grocery list. I think it's a great grocery list. And 20 episodes, so that's pretty good. If you want to spend the summer going back through and listening to any you may have missed, or re-listening to any that you really liked, that would be great and you can just enjoy hanging out with us all summer. But we will be taking a break.
Speaker 2We will be at a wedding.
Speaker 1While you're listening, we will be at a wedding. Yeah, our wedding demands have called upon us now.
Speaker 2Yeah, if you want to picture me while you are listening, you can picture me standing with 10 bridesmaids going oh my God, you all look gorgeous right now, and I'm telling the truth every single time.
Summer Advice and Season Wrap-up
Speaker 1And if you want to picture me, you can picture me at the front Wearing cowboy boots. Yes, I do wear cowboy boots. That's super not important though, they're just. They give me a little bit of height and a whole lot of confidence. To quote our friend Robert you don't worry about my boots, you don't worry about them, you don't worry about my boots.
Speaker 2They look great on you, by the way. Thank you, yeah, do you have any advice to our listeners for the summer?
Speaker 1You don't want your lawn to get too long. That's how a lot of the weed seeds spread. That's a great piece of advice. Thank you.
Speaker 2That and your grocery list. I was going to say my advice is keep a rotisserie chicken in your fridge at all times. You will thank me later.
Speaker 1Keep your gas tank at least half full, because if you're on your way to a wedding, I bet you don't have enough time to gas up and be on time, god. Ain't that the truth? Ain't that the truth?
Speaker 2Ain't that the way?
Speaker 1Fix your AC if it's broken. Now's the time.
Speaker 2That's my advice. The time was actually two months ago for that. It's too late now.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Yeah, is that all your advice? That's it. Enjoy your summer, enjoy your summer we will be back.
Speaker 2See you in the fall.
