Kyle is awfully good at noticing when I bring home something new. One day, not too long before Yule, I adopted another pretty peacock figurine while I was out shopping. I believe it is meant to be a bookend, but I only bought one. Well, the little guy wasn’t in the house but a few hours when Kyle picked it up off the kitchen counter, carried it into the living room and inquired of his origins. He has lived on the coffee table ever since, and tonight he caught my eye as I realized I hadn’t used my camera today.
Not only did I not use my camera . . . I am afraid I must admit I didn’t do much of anything. Kyle and I did have one burst of productivity when we decided it was time to clean out the kitchen “pantry” cabinet. We don’t have a “pantry” per se, so every little bit of storage space really counts. It’s amazing what accumulates even in a kitchen where cooking doesn’t happen on a regular basis! We are trying hard to change that, though. Kyle made an awesome meatloaf the other night, and we just finished off the leftovers of that. Yum. And, I have decided I want to become one with my slow cooker . . . anybody have any great crock pot recipes?
