Let the cooking commence

After much headache and cussing over 50+ year old pipes Jason installed the plumbing for the new sink/garbage disposal/dishwasher! I did not realize how much I missed having a dishwasher. I love that we have the two drawers to use as it is only the two of us and we can run a much smaller load(a dinner for us) and use less water. Not only is my life easier but I'm doing something good for the environment. I also love that our dishwasher has a sensor dry option along with an anti-bacterial option and a sanitize option. I can kind of be a freak about germs at times.

Here are our loverly counters!


Jason and I made our first official grocery store run spending a whopping $200 on food. We needed a lot of staples that got tossed when the fridge took a poo and was not keeping anything cool.

Our first official meal in the new kitchen? Chili. Yep, I had grand plans for a wonderful, romantic meal but considering the plumbing was not complete until 6pm Saturday evening and we did not sit down to eat until 8:30pm, chili worked fine. I did wake J up to a home cooked breakfast on Sunday morning, complete with cheesy eggs, bacon and french toast. My skills need a little fine tuning after a 4 month cooking hiatus. While I have become a better cook since moving here, I think sometimes I have cooking ADD.

Last night's dinner was better but I used the outdoor grill.
