Ancona chickiepoo. I need to name you.

Easter Egger chickie... I think I'm going to name her Chippy...

She is too freaking cute

With those chipmunk cheeks

And running away...

This chick looks just like Mouse when he was a baby. One of my boss's kids claimed the little guy.

Farewell old IKEA dining room table, you've been good to me! Jay has spent the last week refinishing a table that his grandfather made. I'm struggling a bit with the color, but I'm hoping that eventually I'll get used to the lighter color wood.

Another gratuitous pic of Chippy

One of the White Marans chicks... pretty sure that's what she is. No name yet.

That's all for now!

Some pics from my new toy

Here are some photos that I took with my new toy... none of them have been edited.

I have a lot of learning to do, but they're not bad for my first batch of photos.

Coming soon!

There will be many updates coming soon... things are really coming along in the kitchen, so I've been a cooking fool lately. I'm planning to post a quiche recipe as well as an incredibly simple recipe for biscuits and sausage gravy.

The kitchen is looking fantastic with the new countertops. I think that we did an incredible job considering that we were working with second-hand cabinets and sink. We're in the process of deciding what to do with the old chimney that's been covered with drywall (although it's unfinished drywall). Leaning towards tiling the chimney with a smaller tile or even glass mosaic.

For now, here are some photos from the past few weeks

I can't get this photo to post correctly and it's driving me nuts!

Look for more photos and updates soon. :)
