Having a slow start today. We had 3 couples over to celebrate DH's birthday last night. We ate ham and fixin's, drank beer and wine and chatted away about maple sugaring, canning and preserving, cheese making, kitchen cabinet paint colors and the crack in our ceiling for hours. I was a good girl and donned my apron after the last guest left and cleaned the kitchen back up. When I got up this morning DH had put the rest of the chairs away and removed the leaves from the table and my kitchen looked normal again. Phew!! I love having people over and I love having a smaller house, but not at the same time!!
The maple out front is dripping away and I believe we are headed to the church later to tap two trees at the back of the parking lot later today. We need to get chicken food, rabbit food and I can't remember what else and I am going to the fabric store for something to use under the other parts of the current apron because I am not satisfied. We are also looking for a little throw rug for DS's room. He spent hours cleaning on his own yesterday, by choice, and it actually looks much better! He's been asking for a rug since we took out the wall-to-wall. I think he's earned it.
