mangofandangoYou know, days keeps happening and I keep not posting. I'm really enjoying life right now, but it is not particularly interesting. :)
So let's see. Kelly is in the process of moving into our basement. We just got our car repaired, hopefully the last for a bit in a long line of Expensive Things That Come Up (boiler! roof! car repair! that's like $9000 worth of fun over the past 6 months - no wonder we feel poor right now!) for a while. We'll hopefully pay that off next month and then save a little bit of money for the trip to Boston we want to take in honor of our 10th wedding anniversary (and Sophie's 2nd birthday, also in July).
Today was grocery day. We bought watermelon, honeydew, strawberries and grapes. I am just so excited to have warmer weather fruit. :) Local asparagus is happening, too, and I have an unreasonable love of asparagus. In other exciting news, our CSA farm is back on its feet enough after the barn fire they had this winter to be selling mesclun greens and arugula, gorgeous basil and teensy baby bok choy at City Market - and thus, we will have a salad tonight and look forward to the summer, when CSA deliveries resume. I am so happy that spring is here from a culinary perspective, not to mention all the other good stuff. :)
Because I am really not full of things to talk about right now, I will post some photos behind a cut - a better summary of my life right now, possibly, than words are.
Outdoors is so much fun.
As is dancing with Eleanor!
The ECHO deck, looking at the lake. Sophie says, about this photo: "Sophie is wearing glasses, looking at the sea."
Floating her boat at the water table thing at ECHO
Sophie and her young friends having dinner together at Tavi's house
Sophie really got along with Ryan's boss' 9 year old daughter. Maia entertained Sophie while we had dinner with the adults. :)
I got to squish baby Kai. :)
Erin and Tavi. Sophie describes Erin's house as "dry and clean". Apropos of nothing, by the way. And it is both dry and clean! Much cleaner than my house - though I don't know that it is drier. ;)
I love her smile in this picture. :)
This is also very exciting. Sophie describes riding the bike as such: "Ride a bike, bum in seat. Down a hill, fly!" Ryan and Sophie go for rides many nice evenings while I make dinner and enjoy some solitude. :)
