My silly silly foot
6 days ago I had a bunionectomy, pretty much 'cause my foot was growing too wide to wear shoes. Painful the first 3 days, not bad now, I am told by my booklet that by day 10 I should be able to walk without crutches, yay!

I also bought some tulips this weekend. Good thing I did to, as it snowed today and that made me sad

I Made Fish Cakes
And they were surprisingly good!
The recipe is salmon cakes with garlic-spinach sauté an I found the recipe off of Splatgirl Creates which happens to be one of my favorite house design blogs (her house is amazing!)
So Fish cakes can be quite good! Who knew?

Backyard wildlife
I'm completely in love with the wildlife that wonders into our new backyard. I will try to get some good photos of everything I see. The other day this Northern flicker (Colaptes auratus) danced around our bird feeder. Looking up the species, its a male western red-shafted flicker
Here is our new couch! Its an IKEA leather couch that I bought off of craigslist, I couldn't be happier 'cause its in perfect condition and theres no way I could afford a leather couch otherwise

Walking to work
The other day I took my camara when I walked to school
The walk from our new place is really nice, you see the whole city skyline
Lots of stairs to go down
Then across the river to the Stampede grounds

Barbarella's Second Week
Week 1 went by really well... week 2 went even better! Barbarella now stays out with Sal and Inertia when we are at work. Sal has definitely fallen in love with her. If she holds still long enough he'll give her a grooming, but for now he just licks her face whenever he can.
He likes to sleep in her room with her too!
Inertia does not beat Barbaarella up when she walks by, this is a very good sign
Barbarella likes to be near me when I'm working at my desk, which can be a problem when im trying to type. When she sleeps it melts your heart tho

Another day with the kitten
Barbarella spent today outside of her room
Shes been spending time up on my desk, mostly typing for me
But sometimes she sleeps in her kitty bed, which includes right now
I also frosted some cupcakes I made yesterday. Not bad for using a vegie bag from safeway
of course the top photo is of the best one, after a while new holes started to appear in the bag, and I got sloppy. Still they are tasty!

Oh Moving!
Moving has been hectic and tiring, but we are now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Here are some photos of the progress
We found out 3 days before we had to leave that the landlords wanted us to paint the kitchen back to grey. It was really annoying, not only because fo the short time span but the landlords didnt know what the origonal colour was and we had to buy the paint!
The end product is nice and bland. Even Sal hates the colour
Our last night in the place had us living in the living room, trying to keep everything else clean
Sal loves the new apartment, especially his new kitty bed!
The new living room is enormous, we didnt realize that until our landlords moved out, 'cause they have a lot of stuff. We realized we would need some new furnature to fill the place a bit
The kitchen was where things started out in, then they slowly were unpacked, you see why im still not done yet?
Our living room has all of it furnature, no paint, and seems kinda empty. It echos still. Notice the new chair, Inertia sleeps in it all day.
What I need to do after painting is put some blinds over those flowery windows, maybe put a painting over that big permanant mirror, and get a little rug to tie it all together. Any ideas on what colour the living room should be? I don't have a clue
The walls in the hall will stay white because they have a beautiful inlay in them. I'm not sure if its carved out of the drywall or what but it looks origonal
Now the kitchen is the most done of the rooms. I havent painted it yet, but most things are in their place and we even had friends over for dinner the other night. Around the oven it especially looks pleasing
Renato got a magnet bar for our keys, I like that idea a lot. I want to put castors on the trunk
THis is my new desk Renato made, the legs are from IKEA and he made the top out of birch plywood. I have to sand it and put a coat of lacquer on it but it fits perfectly into the space.
And finally we bought some shelving units from IKEA, this one is in the living room. I love the legs on it and I'm trying to arrange the books by colour.
