NOOO MY BEAUTIFUL KITCHEN
May. 27th, 2011 12:45 pmSo, they've started ripping the kitchen out. I mean...not quite; they moved the fridge into the dining room and this is our last chance to use the old, crappy oven (that can't light itself - we have to use a lighter) and old, crappy microwave. We're replacing all the appliances, and, well, EVERYTHING, it's so exciting :D :D I might go take photos for before and after sort of pictures?
Anyways, yeah, I didn't get to bake anything ;n; I mean, I haven't had time. When I am at home I've been tired from work etc. Apparently I can bake cookies in the toaster oven if I really really want to...I doubt I'll try though, LOL, it can only fit like five at a time.
The kitchen renovation will be finished while I'm in China, so I'll come back to it all done :D at least, that's the plan. I'm super excited because the new kitchen will be so much more suited for baking. There'll be more counter space - FUNCTIONAL counter space - because there'll be an island with electrical outlets and other things, which is basically where I plan to do all my baking from now on, and which means I might be able to film my baking if I ever feel like doing so :D :D :D
I'm also super excited that they're renovating the living room completely and ants will not be able to get in as easily anymore and neither will the spiders that have pretty much taken over that room at night. As cool as yellow sack spiders are, I do not appreciate one crawling over my shoulder and onto my chest at night.
Anyways, the whole place is cleared out, the furniture from the living room has all been donated or dropped at the dump because we're getting all new furniture (YAY). Tripper and Nikka have both figured out something is going on; Tripper is nervous about it, and keeps yawning and shaking himself whenever he goes into the empty living room. Nikka I didn't think was nervous, but today when Dad was doing work in there, she came over and cuddled up to me D: she rarely does this. Especially considering I made her go outside last night because she was puking (think she ate her food too fast...greedy pig).
Oh, and speaking of which, Tripper was puking the other day because he ate tin foil. I have the most ridiculous dog ever.
Also, Dad gave him a potato yesterday? He was clearing out the fridge and basically trying to get Tripper to eat most of the leftovers (Tripper's dinner ended up being rice, steak and chicken, with a few chunks of various fruits that he likes, mostly apple). So he just gave him a baked potato. Tripper got super excited and brought it outside (we taught him to bring bones with meat on outside to chew until he gets all the meat off...he's generalized it to all messy and/or large things because he is clever, except when he's trying to eat tinfoil), then just dropped it. LOL. We told him to eat it and he picked it up again and ran off the deck with it...I think he just dropped it somewhere else.
