New favorite lunch

Smoked salmon, cream cheese, cucumber, capers, arugula and a dash of sriracha on french bread.  Don't know why I've been bothering with fancy boutique bought sandwiches.  They never live up to the hype.

Bridal Duties




Tough choices

I have fallen in love and it hurts because in my heart I know it's just not meant to be.  It's 900sq ft in the Stockade district with two fireplaces, and granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, and tin ceiling, and grandness beyond all grandness.  It's nothing I ever imagined I would want, yet everything I've always needed.  Its gorgeous!  And it's about $150 out of my price range at the moment.  :(  Now the question, do I haul ass and figure out a way to make this magnificent piece of property mine?  Or realize that it's just not meant to be, and keep moving on?

Domesticity

"These are only temporary anyway" he said as he finished hanging the final (of 4) set of blinds that took a total of 2 hours and countless dropped and lost screws, to get up.

I looked down at the 12 year old, tobacco stained, dusty, once white $4 curtain that had miraculously made the cut in the move.  The once temporary coverings, that the $4 cheap plastic blinds were now replacing.  I smiled up at his proud, self satisfied face on the ladder.

"Of course babe, totally only temporary".
