It is the 11th of June and I am home with my sweetheart. That seems to be a rare moment right now so we are getting him out of the house and exploring our state and city a bit this weekend. Hitting the road bright and early, our first stop is in Lucas, TX for coffee. Cream and Sugar fills the need but we take them to go today.
While I was in Montana, I mentioned to Mister that I would like to see the Cartier exhibit at the DMA upon my return. Today -- it's on the agenda. We have 11:00 a.m. tickets and I'm super excited. The exhibit is entitled "Cartier and Islamic Art" - elaborating on the way the two are interconnected at times.
Welcome to June in Montana. Yep, I'm still here and still clicking things off lists. Today is a definite go, go, gophers type. I am making banana bread today as there are some bananas beyond the point of eating. Turns out there are not quite enough for the bread, though, so I find some that my sweetheart put in the freezer last time he was here. While they thaw, I might as well clean a drawer and cupboard out. Doesn't that make sense? One of the items I find in mom's spice cupboard is a can of parsley flakes --- an old McCormick one. It has to be at least 45 years old and date back to when we had the Woods Bay Market because it has a stamped price on the bottom. BEFORE stickers and lightyears before UPC codes. It says 19¢. Hahaha. By the time the two spaces are clean, I get the bread mixed and into the oven. Now to go out back and spray paint mom's tables. Yep, I'm a jack of all trades today. I'm in and out several times between coats and manage to take Bailey for a walk before the bread is done. The house smells heavenly and, well, gotta admit this looks pretty good as well.
