Emily at 39 weeks! Beckett's knockin' at our door...
+couple shots of the nursery
I've been thinking of building a concrete bread oven in the backyard...for loaves of bread and pizza's. Got some good designs waiting in the wing...but mostly - my goal this summer - has been to come up with the ultimate Veggie Burger. I've had too many disappointing moments of ordering an $8 Veggie Burger and getting a Boca Burger on a stale, toasted bun. I just finished 5 days of sprouting Adzuki Beans which were then ground with shredded beets, cooked oatmeal, tons of chopped basil, thyme, and oregano, toasted walnuts and sesame seeds, diced garlic scapes, diced Vidalia onions, gnd. celery seed and dry ground mustard.
I'll admit that I'm totally impressed with this batch...light, tasting of veggies, and toasty-ness, spicy and satisfying...yum!
The Fiery Furnaces - Charmaine Champagne from Thrill Jockey Records on Vimeo.
I've been really into the new Fiery Furnaces album...it's not quite as Captn. Beefheart-y as their other recent releases but it's got a great groove and is as smart a pop album as you're likely to hear this year.
Cute Emily and nursery!! Only a few days left to have a leo!
ReplyDeleteSarah - who used to work in the library - took a class on brick oven building ... it sounded like a big project :) Concrete is easier???
I love the nursery! Wish we were owners again so we could nest a little more!
