Donuts and Shelf Installs

Hey our living room is clean.

It certainly isn't anymore as I type.

We had plans to go to Duluth this weekend for the Duluth Preservation Alliance Tour. I just so happened to sit next to one of our tires and thank God I did.

This sucked on two levels. We couldn't have a Duluth weekend with Blake and Daniel and we had to replace our tires just as we were set to sell our Honda Insight.

Somehow Theo talked us into getting donuts at Bogarts.

It really isn't too hard to do that.

True.

Lucky Theo got one of the last s'mores donuts.

I don't think I've ever seen this intersection this busy.

I think its the new protected bikeway on Bryant. It's kind of a big deal.

Pecan was sleeping in Theo's bed so Theo tucked her in.

Meadow went to a friends house so Theo and I played Candy Land.

It was time to hang up a few things up in Meadow's room.

With Meadow gone and no other plans today we decided to finally finish Meadow's bedroom.

I have a fancy stud finder, but I still find it rather unprecise.

Meadow needed these shelves for all her knick knacks. And we had to hang the big photo of her favorite kitty.

Theo organized Candy Land after they played.

When Meadow returned we had ramen.

It's one of our new go-to meals recently. Meadow has been obsessed with it since we watched all the Ghibli films.

Six Months, More Like Six Years

Approaching the 11th hour of this Sunday we finally rolled out of bed. Brooke and I made a night out of our six month since being married. In a way we could be celebrating six plus years together. I met the little lady above in February 2006. Now we garden together. We had a lovely night indeed: dinner at Red Stag and drinks at Aster Cafe. I went outside to show Brooke where our new boulevard tree was going to be planted. We found a love letter in our bushes. Brooke couldn't read it, so we let it dry on one of the radiators. The first page was mostly apologizing for not writing and then the second page turned sour with lots of swear words. We drove downtown to eat brunch. We parked across from this rare small pre-1950s building that has somehow survived in downtown Minneapolis's ongoing urban renewal. We decided to eat at La Belle Crepe since I picked up this for our post-wedding breakfast back on that October day. This creperie is...

This Puzzle Just Never Ends (Plus More Bread!)

I got off Sunday for the second week in a row. While we both got up at about the same time, Brooke took forever to get dressed. I think she has too many outfits to choose from. Once up I fry some salami to go in this week's bread. We hadn't made ebelskivers in long time. We filled them chocolate chips and jam that we got from our friends Ben and Jordan. It feels like just yesterday that they stopped by post-Christmas with their cat Galaxy. Hopefully we can visit them in Seattle in the next year or so. No those aren't chocolate ebelskievers they weren't turning well and started burning. Since we were having problems with the 'skivers we decided to finish up with some waffles. Scott plans out meals for our grocery list while I clean up the kitchen. It's great to see our mixer back in action. I fixed it midway through the previous week. I meant to take photos of the repair process, but forgot. Then Scott got star...

Honeymoon: Locks, Falls and a Damn Ankle

Once we decided to exit stage Mackinac, we had to decide what to do asap.
