Obligatory cute kid shot
Ready for picture day at school. Two minutes later, she "hid" behind the cat tree and turned her blue dress gray.

WOW
This is hard to read, as I had to snap it from a moving vehicle, but the gas station's sign says "Unleadaed 2.95, Unleaded Plus WOW."
Wait 'til this summer. Then we'll really see WOW.

Hail, Sweden!
Spent the day at IKEA (or at least it felt that way) checking out possible furniture ideas for our living room. We also scored new toy storage for Ellen, whose toys have multiplied like rabbits. (Come to think of it, she has a few rabbits in there, somewhere.)
The big change was taking the side off her crib to convert it to a toddler bed. She was excited. We're nervous. Will she fall off? Will she get up and fix herself a sandwich? Will anyone sleep tonight? Stay tuned.

Homework
Working from home. The clean, empty dining room table lets me focus more on a project than my cluttered desk at work.

Punching out
A hard day at 'toddler school' ends with the pickup by daddy. Time to go home. She'll be unconscious within 90 minutes.

The Next Food Network Star
Dipping French fries into blue Jell-O at Bubba Gump's. Boat-shaped serving dish was a big hit.

After
The bathroom project is finished! New paint, new countertop, new tile, new mirror and light fixture, new window, and all the shower plumbing is fixed and in the wall where it should be.
You can't really tell from the picture, but both the tiles and the countertop have a rough, rocky finish that is very nice in person.

Rocket man
Sorry about all the reflection in this image. This is a print hanging over my computer. I'd love to decorate my whole home office in this style.

TV time
Watching some TV in the basement. I want to get rid of that big-ass entertainment center. I bought it in 1998 because it could store lots and lots of VHS tapes. Smart move, eh?

Fire!
Tableside bananas foster flambe at the Palace Cafe in New Orleans. I didn't order it, but I got a ringside seat.

Sandwich of the gods
A fabulous crawfish po boy at the ACME Oyster House in New Orleans. (Note the red beans and rice in the upper left corner.) I wish these guys would deliver to Minneapolis.

Three Red Tails
Northwest Airlines was known as "the red tail." Here are a flock of three at the Minneapolis airport.

Before
We're finally getting the upstairs bathroom fixed. The "problem" started with a jammed shower cartridge ... which led to replacing the crappy oval shower rod, putting the shower plumbing in the wall where it belongs, and putting waterproof tiles and a window in the shower.
Then, of course, we decided to replace the ginormous piece of silvered glass with a nice, normal-size mirror, repaint, retile, and dump the crappy countertop with its conjoined-twin sinks.
It's supposed to all be done by Friday. I automatically add 150% to anything a contractor tells me. Cynical or realistic? Stay tuned!

Big S, little s
Ellen loves the Dr. Seuss's ABC game on the Mac. She can't quite aim the mouse yet, but she can tell me what to click on.
