Sandwich maker

Saria went to a garage sale and got one of those sandwich makers, so we had to make sandwiches. we had some fresh strawberries, so we made a strawberry-filled pastry. They tasted like really good pop tarts. Mmm!

Gardening

We are renting a house and Saria really wanted a garden. We had talked about doing a raised bed or potting the plants in a lot of pots.

I then found out that my work has a community garden, so I got a plot and convinced my coworker to sign up for one as well.

Yesterday, we spent the morning planting our plot, went home and took a nap, and then spent the afternoon planting my coworker's plot. It all got planted! We have lots of tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, eggplant, cucumbers, broccoli.

Back at our home, Saria has planted pole beans, more cucumbers and tomatoes, fennel, and strawberries (that are already producing).

Saria planted most of it while I entertained Rhett with digging holes and going to a close pile of mulch, shoveling out into a wheelbarrow, taking it to the plot, dumping it out on top of Rhett, and then mulching around the plants.

Saria commented that this is the prettiest garden she has ever had.

It is currently raining, so we should have some happy plants! Here's hoping for a bumper crop. We are rationing our canned salsa and pickles until we get more to can. While in Las Vegas we used a lot of our canned produce.

Hiding Ginger

We went over to Monica's and were playing "Just Dance." While dancing, we kept running into Ginger. She didn't like that and went and hid, but I don't think it was the most comfortable hiding place.

Pot Rack

This is the pot rack that we installed. I've always wanted one of these. It took awhile to figure out how to hang it, but it looks really nice.

Our new bed :)

I've been eyeing my dream bed at RC Willey for some time. I've been waiting for it to go on clearance, but for the last year it did not. Since we were moving, we made the decision to buy the bed. We returned it once when we got the scare that we lost our funding for the house. The second time we list the funding for our house, we had the bed on lay away and decided to go through with the purchase. And then, right as we were going to pay off the balance,THE BED WENT ON CLEARANCE. RC Willey adjusted our balance and the bed was ours. We received it last friday and other than the new furniture smell, I LOVE IT. Last bed we'll ever buy for us!
