First meal

June 23rd, 2007 · by map · No Comments

Tonight was the first night I cooked in our new house. I mean, I’ve made oatmeal and scrambled eggs, but I actually made dinner for the family this evening. For the record, it was a stir fry with asparagus, onion, sirloin, snap peas, and mushroom, served over brown rice.

Ava didn’t eat much of it, but Leah said it was good. The new stove works great.

I spent the day running errands and pulling lots and lots of weeds. The previous owner here really took care of her yard, and there are quite a few nice plantings around, including some gorgeous lilies. Like these:

These just started opening up earlier in the week. They came on just as the orange ones were fading out.

We also went and picked up some wicker porch furniture Leah hunted out at Stuff Etc. We’ve got furniture out the wazoo now, so I suppose it’s time to start having people over. Keep an eye out for your invite. Please specify chicken, beef, or vegetarian.
