I got my first order for buttons off to the derby contact, and then she wanted more. I got them all finished and then went to the clinic.
But before I got a cold, Shaun brought home this Date Coffee loaf, or maybe it's a Coffee Date loaf, from Cobs. I didn't know what to do with it. But then I channeled my inner Chopped addict and came up with what we now call "toasties". Not so creative name for a super yummy snack.
I sliced the bread super thin. Then I brushed it with melted butter and sprinkled it with sea salt.
I baked it until it was dry. I served it with cream cheese to Emily and her friend and they loved it. Weird, because neither likes coffee or dates. We've had it with brie, and cream cheese and roasted garlic. It's a keeper.
The night before my cold, we got our veggie bin. I decided to sign up again, we need some veggie inspiration. The tangelos were a huge hit. I opted for the large bin every other week.
The other new thing was the watermelon radish. Radish texture and taste, but not radish heat. We like it!
The doctor prescribed this giant bottle of cough syrup. It did the trick, the cough and snotty nose did not amount to the ear infection he said was on the verge of ruining my life. Maybe over exaggerating, but I've been sick 3 times in 4 months since I started working out in the world. Germs are not my friends.
I told Kerry to take that cupboard down, and he did. What difference!
I need to paint, but you can see sort of, how removing the cupboard opened up the kitchen/dining area. Well, I can see it, the picture does nothing to really show you. I want to paint/remove the tiles. I hate them. I want new counter tops too, while were at it. But that will have to wait.
In the mean time, we'll eat white chocolate fudge, made with Bernard Callebaut chocolate.
I was inspired today by Donna Downey's poppy canvas album cover. So I made this canvas. It's almost 2 feet square. I think I will put it in the living room.
