I missed you too!

I really did! I have so much to tell you.

Sounds good, right? Oh, it is sweet, I assure you. And yet… without the disgusting carpeting to distract one’s attention, the rooms’ desperate need of a paint job became overwhelming. Plus, all the furniture and other crap usually filling up the bedrooms and getting in the way of a decent paint job is downstairs in the living room. (See photo at left.)

So I’m painting. A lot. Non-stop, really. So last night my dashing husband made this lovely “vegetable stew but it’s sort of a succotash” for dinner. You want to make it? I have no idea what he did. All I know is he found it disappointing and I found it delicious.
