You see, Wednesday Damarise and I packed up the kitchen – spices, food, pots, pans, and all. We found a house to sublet over the summer that was 5 houses down from ours. The move was simple, but we stretched it out over a few days. Thursday we moved our table. Friday we moved the dishes. And Saturday we moved over beds, food, and everything else we owned.
We spent most of Saturday unpacking. Sunday I decided to try out the new oven. Chocolate chip banana muffins are my go-to baking fix. If I have the urge to bake something, I'll whip up a batch and let the sweet smell of vanilla, bananas, and chocolate fill the house. It is also my go-to "how-does-this-new-oven-work?" recipe. Because I know how long the muffins should cook for in my old oven, I see how long they cook in a new oven and adjust all my recipes from there. The new oven was splendid and huge. I am a fan!
Hopefully our home will have internet come Friday, but we shall see. Having to deal with setting up electricity, water, and internet was a shock to what the "real" world is like. There are several things that I didn't even think of (like having to figure out who picks up our trash when). But, it is all working out and I am just thankful to be in a home still in the same neighborhood. God is good!
When we do get internet I will post the past new meals I have made: Lasagna (which was so fun to make!), strawberry jam, and tomorrow's meal – fried chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, and biscuits. Mmmm. Stay tuned! Hopefully it won't be too much longer.
