Baby steps

Not a whole lot to report in kitchen news.

Almost all of the remaining cupboard doors that we were waiting for have arrived, however we now find ourselves short on hinges. One would think that the correct amount of hinges would be delivered with the doors, however one would be mistaken. Nonetheless, things are really coming together.





We still have a lot of work to do: door handles, back splash, painting, and trim, not necessarily in that order. Despite the amount of work left to be done Patrick and I were thrilled that Rob took the day off on Saturday for a "Family Fun Day" with us. And fun it was! But next weekend it will be back to the grind for him.

In other news, the backyard now looks almost perfectly normal:



And, Patrick is still cute. I know you were worried.



By the way, does anyone know what this is? Is it a weed? The wonderful people from whom we bought this house planted a lovley garden full of lush, green things that require little attention from us (like hostas and ivy)... but we are not exactly sure what this is, or if it is supposed to be there. Help?
