April, 2019

Ten years ago today, we moved into our new house.

We’ve made a few changes along the way to truly make it ours, but the essence of it is still the same 1890 folk Victorian that we admired ten years ago.

If a double-yolked egg actually hatches, does it grow into a chicken with this many giblets?

In past years, some critter has decapitated these tulips before they bloomed. 

Lis and I went for a walk at the nearby Beaver Brook Reservation and saw… a beaver!

We saw no evidence of beaver activity near this pond, so we think this individual was out exploring today.

Bonus picture: also turtles.

First bunny in our yard this season. I hope this year they eat fewer of our flowers.

Finished guanciale, portioned for the freezer.

Happy National Beer Day!

Not only did I pour this Alchemist beer into a glass, it’s a *Trillium* glass.

It’s not the biggest ceiling fan in the house — the one in our sunroom is a little bigger. I installed this one in our dining room today to help distribute the heated/cooled air from the mini-split unit through the rest of the first floor.

I worked from home today due to a cold. Ferrous very kindly came and sat with me, getting under the blanket. Then a little while later, Gandalf came over and SAT DOWN ON TOP OF HIS BROTHER. They stayed that way about 10 minutes. Cats….

New food truck in Dewey Sq. today: “All items can be made as melt or poutine”
