Oooh...two posts in one night...

A list of some of my favorite kitchen things, in no particular order

1. My hot chocolate mixer. Especially after Sean and I bought 5 boxes of Swiss Miss on sale the other day.
2. The dishwasher. Whoever invented it deserves a nobel prize.
3. The griddle. Because it's so nice to make 4 pancakes and heat up pre-cooked sausage all at once.
4. The crock-pot. It's just amazing.
5. The knife-block. Because of course I use knives regularly.
6. The microwave. Do I really need to explain?

What happens when...

the door knob turns but the door won't open?

Well, I presume that most people would go buy a new door knob. Easy, $10 fix, right? Sure. But not for us. It was the back door. The ugly, white with yellow trim around the glass back door. The one part of our house that really looked like it was from a trailer.

But no more. No, now we have a nice white fiber-glass door with a new door knob. In bronze (color, not metal!!). Now we just have to sand down the wooden door to the deck, and replace the front (red, rusting, paint chipping) door. Lovely, right?


And in other news, I think a mouse has taken up residence in the bedroom wall. At least I'm hoping it was a mouse. It sure was making a ton of noise. Maybe I need to borrow John's BB gun. But that's a story for another time!
