Tiramisu in the snow






I do not want to put on the big coat anymore.

Birds are nesting in our house. The optimist in me would like to see this as a wonderful sign of spring. Tilt is quite angry at the birds. He had hoped to work on our kitchen cabinets over the next few weeks, but will instead be putting up the soffits and foaming the bird holes in the easterly wall. Ladders, a foot of snow, and soft mud underneath does not make for a very inviting project, but it is necessary.

I do not want to put on a hat.

We have made great progress in finishing some of the walls. Choosing colors and painting is always a fun project. The walls are Oat Straw, Meditation, and Caliente. The ceiling is Mascarpone. So if you're looking for me, I will be sitting on a straw bale, meditating to a hot pepper mantra and getting fat on Tiramisu.

I have absolutely no desire to wear my heavy winter boots.

The ceiling lights are in, but not hooked up yet. Soon we will be ready for the electricians to come back and make that happen. They look good up there with the new paint. Tilt is really good at installing the light fixtures after putting up 30 of them! We purchased some low voltage pendants for over the island and breakfast nook. I am looking forward to seeing them up too.

I think I will stop complaining and go snowboarding while I still have the chance!!
