Can God make a microwave burrito so hot that even he can't eat it?

Sweet, Sweet Summertime
Sorry, the quest for wart eradication has overwhelmed me. Fact of the matter is, those things are ruthless and I foresee a bloody battle ahead.
Other than that relentless nubbin, this summer has been cooking. Not only with loads and loads to do and done, but also meteorologically. It's been straight up nineties for a while now. And I love it. That means there's been trips to our cabin, to Tiffany's house on Lake Minnesung, numerous dips in Lester River, plunges in Lake Superior and temptations to sit on our neighbor's sprinkler.
Meanwhile, I've had the chance to enjoy summer about as much (perhaps more) as I did when they were considered official summer vacations. Road trips, Twins games, weddings, good food, sunburns, etc. Speaking of sunburns, a piece of skin the size of a silver dollar recently peeled off. I'm not kidding you. I'm going to put it in an envelope and mail it someone. They could probably feed a hamster for a month off of that.
Don't get me wrong, though. I'm not a proponent of ingesting dead skin. Take my recommendation and find some fresh fruit. Some gazpacho. Pico de gallo. Pesto.
