The stove: redux, but now with cookies
Dave and I finished up the stove the day Dave's parents left to go home to Virginia, which I probably already mentioned, but since my camera's hopefully in queue to be repaired I wasn't able to take any pictures. Until Megan lent me hers, that is! She dropped it off at my house around 4PM, I took some pictures, and then I gave it right back to her a few hours later at belly dancing because 1. her camera is super fancy and expensive and 2. I have a really bad track record with cameras right now and 3. her husband would KILL me. I'm sure of it. So anyway, she downloaded the pictures and forwarded them to me so now I get to share them with you!
I'm estimating, but I'm guessing the whole thing cost under $20 because the cardboard was free and almost everything else either we had or Dave's dad had. Yesterday while out and about in Porter Square we stopped in a toy shop to do a little hands-on window shopping. I spied a really cute wooden play set that was similar to ours in that it was one free-standing station. It had a sink, microwave, and oven. It was $199. Smug smuggity smug. I think I'll head off to, say, Sephora and blow the $179 we theoretically saved. Although I should probably spend it on Dave's dad since he did all of the dirty work.
I also took advantage of having a camera to take some pictures of the felt cookies I made:
Yesterday I saw bags of felt farfalle and linguine. That might have to be next on the list.
There's a storm moving in later today. The skies are already dark and gray. I hope we get a lot of snow. Or *some* snow anyway. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
