I’m still not done yet, but I’m getting close to finishing this little bathroom. (Before and After)

I had an Italian lesson during my lunch, and this little helper got excited when he found the animal images, and started naming them (in English). It’s been a busy couple of weeks, but the little things make it all worth it.

Experimented with a new batch of hot sauce and I like it a lot. Fermented habanero, garlic, radish and onion, with some apple, honey and ginger.

Getting pretty good at brushing his own teeth

I have this silly dream to do a garage conversion and make my house into an imitation Kilbourne Sears kit house. Don’t even care that it’d be pastiche.

Numero dos, amigos.

Next comes the grilling station

The dudes have put in three 10 hour days so far and should be finished with the deck tomorrow.
