Something is going on in the kitchen

Grandma took peanut to the zoo today while mom and dad did a little work in the kitchen. It turned out, I was more emotional support than anything.

Here is what Mr. T. did in the kitchen.

It was an ordeal trying to figure out what shape to put up. I think this is nice and looks most original and eye catching of the cuts we tried. At first we were a little "eh..." about it, but as the colors start to come through more, I like it.

And this is what I did.

I think my yeast might be a bit old. It is time to run out to Sam's to get some more. I haven't made bread in my new kitchen yet. Since the weather has changed, I have needed home made bread and soup. The wheat bread on Friday turned out okay, but my ciabatta didn't turn out very well at all. I think I need a bit more practice (and better yeast) to make it work. I forgot all my tricks.

I stayed home from work on Friday to do some errands and paint. I got almost everything done I wanted to do. There is, of course, still more to do, but I think with a better brush, I can get the rest of the painting done throughout the week. I am really not like the green doors with my pretty purple paint.
