After returning from our nice honeymoon at Cannon Beach, OR Ben and I have settled, reluctantly, back into post-wedding reality. We are slowly sorting through the wedding presents and finding places for things – like two large appliances we thought we wouldn’t actually receive but did.
I am very excited about our crock pot and bread machine though. Yesterday after I got home from work I broke open the box for the bread machine and started reading the instruction manual for the bread machine. It was a wedding gift from my God-Parents and I remember the weekends I would stay with them and my godmother and I would bake bread in her bread machine. It was like magic peaking in that tiny 2″ window on the lid to see it slowly progress, until finally we could taste what we’d been smelling bake for hours. Needless to say I can’t wait to use it.
We’ve started using the Fiestaware as our everyday plates. Our cupboard has become much more colorful, Ben and I both have our favorite color in the collection, but its fun to mix and match too. We’ve traded out our silverware as well, it’s so nice to have real silverware. I can’t even begin to describe how nice it is.
That’s it from the newlywed home for now. Until next time,
Emilie
