Finally Floor Tile

After work Rand and I headed off to Home Depot to pick up floor tile for the new kitchen. Man, that stuff weighs a TON. I could only carry one measly box of 11 tiles at a time. Oh, did I mention that I carried them all in during a major thunderstorm? The tornado sirens were going off and I was getting drenched as I walked back and forth from the car to the house with them. Ah...the joys of home ownership. :)

What I Wore While Buying Floor Tile in a Tornado:

What I Ate That Sounded Fancier Than It Was:

2010-09-09 food

We came back from visiting my parents this weekend with a cooler full of food. And by visit I mean staying some place that wasn't a construction zone and actually had running water, etc. And my cooler full of food I mean that we cleaned out their fridge to "help" them since they were going out of town. One of the things we brought back was smoked pheasant breast that I turned into "chicken" salad. Delish! Everyone at work thought I was so fancy, but basically it really was just a chicken salad sandwich. I also came back with a bunch of pears and apples that we picked off a neighbor's tree and some yummy (and healthy) pear bread that I made.
