Weekend Condo work

So far my Saturday has been very productive - Spent some time at Home Depot, got two Glidden quarts - one is "Overcast" and the other is "Manatee Grey. I think with the chocolate carpet, and my espresso/brown theme, going with blue-grey and green-grey colors will look nice and be warm/soothing at the same time. Big sample areas are up for now, while I see how they look in different light (i.e morning, nightitime, etc....
I also visited the West Seattle Nursery -sorry Shorty's, Vancouver is too far for one pot and a plant :-) I think I got a nice grouping in my pot - some color, and one of plants has little purple flowers that bloom all year. We'll see how it fills out over the next few weeks. I'd like to put a larger urn-style over in the far corner (can't see in photo here) w/ a bigger topiary.

San Fran Tiger Story - Taunting?

Those who know me, know I love animals. I really like big cats, but come on - they are wild animals. When I first heard of the San Fran story, I was shocked, but in the back of my mind wondered if something was fishy here. I mean, why did this animal get out and go crazy? I had my suspisions, now confirmed by THIS STORY. Not that I want to see people die, but come on - what do you expect when taunting a wild animal.

First Cooked Meal at the Condo

Cooking for one is about as lonely as a table for one at a restaurant, so I don't do it that often. Tonight though, I was inspiried to whip out some Porcini Mushroom Risotto - I added asparagus and a little shredded colby cheese. Bon Appetit ML!

Gotta Love Islam!

Yet ANOTHER honor killing - this time in Jordan. Man, this religion is SO positive.... (that was sarcasam!).

Belated Christmas Decorations

With all the moving going on in our lives this past month, I never did get to decorate for Christmas. As I've been unpacking, I came across a few of my favorites, so put them out and I don't care that "technically" Christmas is over. It's still Winter time and I will enjoy my little arrangement :-)
