Mail Call

The package got here safely. Wow... I'm speechless! Thanks! Now I really can't wait for December to start. A small package should be arriving for each of you this week.

Yumm

I'm baking mushroom polenta (Food and Wine supplied the photo - I'm still boiling the milk.) I'm leaving the milk untended on the stove to tell you about the most adorable cards in the world... what do you think? I love everything they make.

Just showing off

I took this picture before you visited to show you my enamel bowl. But then the film got developed after your visit! The photo came out nicely so I thought I'd show you anyway!

The mushroom hut?

This is an action shot of a mushroom growing out of our roof!

Washing up

I'm working on posting the horror shots of our bathroom renovation on flickr so our landlord can see what she paid for. Warning: extremely graphic images of home repair in stark black and white. View these if you want to feel better by saying "at least its not my house" (Sort of the same reason I watch the movie Wonder Boys on really bad days.)
