We got our leather couch
This picture of the day revolves around a furniture store that will remain nameless. But if you click this Day 85 Photo Link you can get a major hint at who I’m referring to. I am done dealing with this place. They have pissed us off enough, never to return! Which is too bad because I like to stay away from the big American boxstores. But they left us no other option. We found a couch we really love there. It’s one we noticed when we first moved into our house but now we are ready to purchase. We went back to check it out but thought we should take…

Need help personalizing
Ok I know I want to have some geometric patterns in our bedroom. Preferrably the curtains and preferrably with overlapping circles/rings of some sort. So the picture for today is a few shots of circles and whatnot that have kind of inspired me.

Blueberry Grunt (Day 82)
Mmmmm….blueberry grunt. John’s new favourite dessert. I’m turning him into a bluenoser slowly, but surely. Since so many people out here have no idea what this pot of delicious-ness is. I’ll elaborate slightly. Make a blueberry sauce with some spices and simmer & reduce until ready. While that is simmering make your sugar dumplings. Drop them into the sauce by the spoonful and put the lid on and walk away. Then out comes the dumplings. Ok, this isn’t the usual…they aren’t usually spotted and whatnot but that was a Thanksgiving error. I turned the wrong burner up causing this to boil and spray blueberries everywhere in the pot. hehe Not…
