Simple Sunday




This past Sunday was not simple...AGAIN! Well, it started out simple. Caden and I had picked some blueberries in the side yard on Saturday so we made some blueberry pancakes for breakfast. Yummy! Another reason to love Alaska in the summer....berries.


Then, we discovered that the refrigerator was not working. Only 2 & 1/2 years old and food was getting warm and we could hear a rythmic clicking sound. We had to unload the freezer into the spare in the garage and the refrigerator things went into a cooler on the back deck. How fun for us right? Well, 2 good things did come from this fun filled day....I found items that expired in 2006 in the fridge and I cleaned it top to bottom. My friend Renee and I wonder why we keep leftovers only to find them hidden in the fridge at a MUCH later date covered in a thick blanket of crud. Scary. I had nightmares all night that a bear would crash through the back deck gate, tear open the cooler, devour the contents and then decide to see where the rest of the food might be. Seriously!

Well, after that, I painted the upstairs bathroom (you would be so proud Jeff & Erin). It turned out awesome, made an apple crisp for dinner at Caryn's and finished up the bathroom.

What is up with these Sundays NOT being so simple? Ugh.
