Projects Of The Night

‘Twas a calm afternoon and a calm night.

Took my car for an inspection. Walked home. Talked to mom. Talked to Gram. Cleaned/organized/made dinner for the husband. He loves it when he walks in the door and I announce “Dinner is served!”

[Who wouldn’t!? So do I!]

IMG_7420-2Blog

Before we dined though, we shared a Shalafly Pumpkin beer in the formal living room to discuss the day’s events. Felt a bit Leave It To Beaver-ish! {Remind me to write about my thoughts on formal living rooms later!} The bakery is doing well, and while I’m still very involved in the business decisions, my hands are no longer needed there daily. I hope to work a few days a week from here on out – these past 2 have just been keeping me busy at home. I’m very happy I was able to put in so much time the first quarter. The bakery has always been Matt’s baby, so we are happy with how things are going.

IMG_7414-2Blog IMG_7416-2Blog

For dinner I had thawed out half a pound of Virginia bison and turned it onto a meaty pasta sauce along with tomato sauce, a big green pepper, chili powder, and salt – served over penne and topped with some delicious raw cow’s milk cheese the twins brought me two weekends ago – delicious!

IMG_7421-2Blog

IMG_7426-2Blog

After dinner I worked on assembling my IKEA Antonious laundry room cart. I’m not happy with the set-up in there right now!

IMG_7428-2Blog

I give myself about a B- for the installation. I ended up putting all the wheels on and then taking them off to put them on again on the other end. Darn IKEA instructions photos (and darn my impatience!)

IMG_7430-2Blog

Matt hung another photo (one per night!) and these funky wine racks from IKEA!

IMG_7432-2Blog

Last night I finished the book Little Bee, the story of a young Nigerian refugee and the British family she meets. It was really good, very poetic and very emotional… heart-wrenching at times. Great character development. Recommended literature!

Hoping to start something new now

this !
. So glad after a college hiatus books are back in my life. Going to bed isn’t complete without a chapter!

    Animal, Vegetable, Miracle is a great non-fiction read by Barbara Kingslover. I just finished Prodigal Summer, fiction, that was good, too. I love how the house it coming along (so quickly, too). And dinner looks yum!

      I love all books Barbara Kingsolver, especially since I’m a Kentucky girl! But you just named the two best.

      Animal, Vegetable, Miracle changed the way I eat, I think it should be on the mandatory high school reading list.

          The Poisonwood Bible is great, too. It’s a little slower to progress, but really good. The Bean Trees is good, as well. You just can’t go wrong with Barbara.

    PS-the picture of Matt in the living room up top is too funny. So “formal” 🙂 If he had a suit and tie on, it’d be perfect. ha!

    Assembling furniture is probably one of the most dreaded tasks ever for me! I HATE IT! I can never get it right the first time and end up un-assembling and then re-assembling. Oh, the joys. I’d say your work looks great. Way better than a B-

    I have a few book recommendations for you:

    Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card, yes, the genre is scifi and while that is not my genre of choice, it is a great book which i read for the second time this summer!

    Also, Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, i believe this is categorized as ‘young adult fiction’ but i’m in my late 20s and found it quite entertaining. I found both of these books to be quick reads and the kind that are difficult to put down…

    Like some of the other commenters, I’ve read Tina Fey’s Bossypants as well. Funny! There’s a chapter where she has written responses to comments people have made about her on various websites- hilarious! I’m sure you would appreciate it.

    Do you read in bed or before going to bed? I have been doing better staying awake to read at night but I have to read on the couch in our office and not in bed. Thanks for the book recommendation, Little Bee is on my list. Right now I am reading The Wilder Life by Wendy McClure, a tribute to Laura Ingalls Wilder and the Little House books. I’m also reading Beezus & Ramona with my daughter. I finished my first Janet Evanovich book, Wicked Appetite which was entertaining but a little different. I’ve never been to Ikea but love the looks of their products. I bought a pumpkin beer the other day but need to remember to look for the Schafly.

        I can get more comfortable reading on the couch than I can trying to lay in bed to read. I think it’s because I sleep on my side and on my stomach so I can’t just sit up or lay on my back to read when I’m in bed. I tend to do my best reading on the elliptical or crosstrainer when I have to stay awake!

After finishing an especially satisfying read, I wonder how I could let time go by without a book in hand. It’s such a comforting habit to read a bit for pleasure every evening.

    Good job on discovering an ideal bakery-home business balance. Glad you guys have settled into a comfortable normal.

    Oh, and I feel your pain on the lack of IKEA lack of patience thing!

    I remember one of the most exciting things about leaving college and having a commute on a train was that I FINALLY was able to read for pleasure again!!

    I LOVE those wine racks! And I give you more than a B for installation – if I were the one doing it, it would not have ended up looking ANYTHING like the picture on the box and there would have been way more assembling and disassembling happening! Haha.

    Dinner looks delicious – I’ve been craving a big bowl of meaty pasta lately and that looks perfect.

    You inspired me to make a pumpkin beer run, and I learned my local specialty store is getting Pumking on Friday. Is it wrong that I’m insanely excited??

    Kath, I’ve been reading your blog for over a year now and have never left a comment! Congratulations on your new home – how exciting! I’ve loved seeing all of your rooms come together in your photos. 🙂 If you’re looking for a fun, interesting read, I’m loving the book The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. Check it out if you haven’t heard of it!

    Hi Kath, I know you recently made a big IKEA trip. Are you planning to share all the items you purchased? We just moved into a new home, and I’m looking for ways to organize! Thanks!

      I didn’t purchase many small items – just the big stuff which you will see. I will try to do an IKEA item post sometime. That would be fun.

    I love eating at my formal dining room. My husband always eats in front of the tv, while I take my food into the dining room. Feels more comfortable to me for some reason. Probably because I’ll spill stuff all over myself if I eat on the couch.

    You should check out ‘Water for Elephants’. I saw the movie when it came out which was awesome, but the book was even better. 🙂
