The Doors

Well, I painted the trim and the doors. There is one door left to do, and then some touchup of the trim. I had my mister over on Saturday and we got most of it done (he helped with the trim; I'd done the doors already.

I like these colors, but I realize they're "Dr Seuss" colors. I started with a desert theme - hence the marigold and deep brown-red. The blue is more saturated than I really wanted. Actually, it's exactly what I wanted, but in retrospect I should have gone line.

In any case, we're almost done with paint. I need to touch up the details. Then, it will be a curtain rod for the remaining un-curtained window, and then perhaps remodeling the bathroom.

Baking Eggs

My latest thing is baking eggs. Using a small baking dish, buttered ad sprinkled with salt, pepper, and paprika. Previously, I would pour milk over, but today I dropped in a light layer of sharp cheddar. Baked at 375 degrees for twenty minutes or so. Magnifique, and much less messy than frying in a pan.
