Family zoom today brought some distressing news. R.’s aunt C. had a bad fall last Thursday. She’s in the hospital, and next steps are being considered. It was a lot to take in on family zoom. I’m not sure what to do now, because I’m fairly certain that C.’s other daughter has not been notified, and probably no one else knows either. *sigh* I’ll have to tell R. when he gets home, and then I guess we’ll figure it out from there. I texted R.’s uncle H., and he’s going to handle the communication to C., so that’s good.
I decluttered some of the kitchen today. We picked out some duplicate corningware, and reduced the number of mugs, and also the very large dinner plates which we never use because R. hates them because they don’t fit in the dishwasher and I think he just hates them. Those were picked up right away!
We also reduced in some other cabinets as well. Some picked up today; some are scheduled for tomorrow.
Last year, when we were in Montreal, we went to a brewpub in Laval (Les Insulaires) and they had gorgeous dinnerware. Obviously I looked at the bottom, and I have been looking for that lovely RAKstone cobalt blue ever since. I hadn’t looked in a few months, so I checked again and lo and behold it was at webstaurantstore. After some discussion with R., I ordered some. Not all that I would want, but enough so that we could determine whether it works for us or not. I’m very excited!
I see I’m behind on blogging, so I’ll try to catch up on that next.
